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 🙏

ILP Fetch

Simple paid HTTP request library for Interledger. Based on node-fetch.

Usage

The ILP Fetch API supports all the options that are present in the node-fetch API.

Two additional fields are added:

  • plugin: The ILP plugin used to make payments.
  • maxPrice: The maximum, in the plugin's base units, which ILP fetch will send.

Example

The below example will upload a file containing hello world to Unhash (content-addressed storage on top of ILP).

const plugin = require('ilp-plugin')()
const fetch = require('.')

fetch('https://alpha.unhash.io', {
  plugin,
  maxPrice: 100,
  method: 'POST',
  body: 'hello world'
})
  .then(r => r.json())
  .then(json => {
    console.log('json response:', json)
    process.exit(0)
  })
  .catch(e => {
    console.error(e)
    process.exit(1)
  })

Test

First run Moneyd on your machine. Then:

git clone https://github.com/interledgerjs/ilp-fetch.git
cd ilp-fetch
npm install
DEBUG=* node test.js

In the Browser

Because ILP fetch is based around Fetch, it is possible for it to run in the browser. Because of the restricted use of headers and cross-origin requests (and because it is not possible to access moneyd from within a webpage), it may not be useful in an ordinary webpage.

However, in the evironment of an extension it can be useful to make payment-enabled requests. Additionally, an extension should have no problems making cross-origin requests or accessing moneyd.

Just add the following block to your webpack config:

  externals: {
    'node-fetch': 'fetch'
  }
