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 🙏

Readme

A javascript library for browser fingerprinting.

Demo

Installation

Simply include imprint.min.js in your HTML page. It has no other dependencies.

<script type="text/javascript" src="imprint.min.js"></script>

Usage

To create a fingerprint, instantiate a new instance of the ImprintJs class and call getFingerprint passing in a list of tests you wish to run. The getFingerprint method returns a javascript Promise which once all tests have run, returns the generated fingerprint.

<script type="text/javascript">
    
    var browserTests = [
        "audio",
        "availableScreenResolution",
        "canvas",
        "colorDepth",
        "cookies",
        "cpuClass",
        "deviceDpi",
        "doNotTrack",
        "indexedDb",
        "installedFonts",
        "language",
        "localIp",
        "localStorage",
        "pixelRatio",
        "platform",
        "plugins",
        "processorCores",
        "screenResolution",
        "sessionStorage",
        "timezoneOffset",
        "touchSupport",
        "userAgent",
        "webGl"
    ];

    imprint.test(browserTests).then(function(result){
      console.log(result);
    });

</script>

Supported Tests

Out of the box, ImprintJS comes with the following tests

  • audio
  • availableScreenResolution
  • canvas
  • colorDepth
  • cookies
  • cpuClass
  • deviceDpi
  • doNotTrack
  • indexedDb
  • installedFonts
  • installedLanguages [experimental, inconsistent results]
  • language
  • localIp
  • localStorage
  • mediaDevices [experimental, inconsistent results]
  • pixelRatio
  • platform
  • plugins
  • processorCores
  • publicIp [external request]
  • screenResolution
  • sessionStorage
  • timezoneOffset
  • touchSupport
  • userAgent
  • webGl

Custom Tests

If you'd like to add your own custom test, you can register a new test like so

imprint.registerTest("testAlias", function(){
	return new Promise(function(resolve) {
	    var value = ""; // Some code to perform a test
		return resolve(value);
	});
});

All tests must have an alias, and a factory method that creates a javascript Promise that performs the actual test. We use promises to allow for async tests. On completion, the promise should always resolve. If a value cannot be determined, simply resolve with an empty string.

Known issues

  • Some versions of Firefox for Android report inccorrect screen.height / screen.width values as they subtract the browser chrome when they shouldnt do resulting in inconsistant screenResolution test values. No current workaround. Issue 1120452
  • Firefox for Android reports a color depth of 24 instead of 32 as they percieve the last 8 bits as being alpha and so shouldn't be concidered as part of the color depth. As a workaround, we treat all 32 bit colorDepths as 24 bit. Issue 424386

ImprintJS is based heavily on code from a number of libraries, namely
