Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Sony Bravia Audio Toggle Homebridge plugin

This is a Homebridge plugin to solve a specific issue with my 2017 Sony Bravia TV (KD49x8305) and a Wiim Amplifier. Sadly, despite being connected to the amplifier using HDMI and the TV reporting that it is set to output sound to the amp, it regularly doesn't! This requires me to manually toggle the audio output source using the IR remote control and the painfully slow TV menu (so primitive!).

It's based on the Homebridge template plugin, and there's only one commit so you can see what was done.

You will have to ensure you have enable IP Control and you can read more about the API here: https://pro-bravia.sony.net/develop/integrate/ip-control/index.html

It's really unlikely I'll have time to maintain this so caveat emptor!

Installing and using

Install using Homebridge UI, and then for the plugin settings specify:

  1. Name - how you want this to appear in Homebridge/Homekit
  2. IP Address - the IP address of your TV
  3. PSK - the Private Shared Key you've setup on your TV. Note, the API uses HTTP not HTTPS so don't expect this to be encrypted in transit

The Default TV audio output value and Desired audio system output value can be left as defaults, and are return values from the API.
