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

INFINITE MONKEY DB!

This is definitely* the database you're been looking for.

npm install infinite-monkey-db

FEATURE BULLET LIST

  • ZERO storage footprint.
  • It has ALL the letters in CAP. Bet you can't say that about YOUR database.
  • It has ALL the letters in ACID. And it isn't even SQL!
  • Super low memory overhead.
  • Zero possibility of data loss.
  • Transactions! These are a thing that you'd care about with lesser databases.
  • Quantum replication! This isn't actually a thing, but it sounds super fast, right?
  • Asynchronous -- your query may take some time, we're not about to block you from doing other cool stuff.
  • You already know the query language. Well, you do if you know Regular Expressions.

Requirements

  • It probably/definitely won't work unless your system is Unixy.
  • Your system must have at least one CPU.
  • Node.js
  • Patience.

Usage

var query = require("infinite-monkey-db")

query(/abc/, function (results) {
  // Notice we didn't even have to insert it first? WEBSCALE!
  console.log(results)
})

CLI

$ node -e 'require("infinite-monkey-db")(/abc/, console.log)'
I found your results, and it only took 7995392 bytes and 746ms!
abc

Methods

  • require("infinite-monkey-db")(regex, cb) -- Query for your data! Return it in cb(results)
  • query(regex, cb) -- (alias to above)
  • save(...) -- Sure why not?

Options

  • debug: set to false to disable helpful messages. Why would you want to do that?
  • max: set to a number to limit the search-space for your results. Reduces the odds of your query's success from 100% to some number less than 100%
var q = require("infinite-monkey-db")
q.debug = false
q.max = 1024

q(/Alas, poor Yorick!/, console.log)

*(not)
