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

isoformat

This library implements a concise formatter and parser for ISO 8601 date and date-times. It is intended for use as an interchange format, for example in CSV, that is more human-readable than the full ISO date-time string used by date.toISOString.

To use:

import {format, parse} from "isoformat";

format(date, fallback)

Given a Date, format(date) returns the shortest equivalent ISO 8601 UTC string. If date is not a Date instance, it is assumed to represent milliseconds since UNIX epoch. If date is not a valid date, returns the given fallback value, which defaults to undefined; if fallback is a function, it is invoked to produce a fallback value if needed, being passed the date.

format(new Date(Date.UTC(2001, 0, 1))) // "2001-01-01"
format(new Date(Date.UTC(2020, 0, 1, 12, 23))) // "2020-01-01T12:23Z"

The following forms may be returned by format:

  • YYYY-MM-DD
  • YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MMZ
  • YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ
  • YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.MMMZ

The year YYYY may also be represented as +YYYYYY or -YYYYYY. Note that while YYYY and YYYY-MM are valid ISO 8601 date strings, these forms are never returned by format; YYYY can be easily misinterpreted as a number, and YYYY-MM… well, I guess that would be okay, but it felt simpler to stop at YYYY-MM-DD to make it more obvious that it was a date.

parse(date, fallback)

Given an ISO 8601 date or date-time string, parse(string) returns an equivalent Date instance. If string is not a valid ISO 8601 date or date-time string, returns the given fallback value, which defaults to undefined; if fallback is a function, it is invoked to produce a fallback value if needed, being passed the string.

parse("2001-01-01") // new Date(Date.UTC(2001, 0, 1))
parse("2020-01-01T12:23Z") // new Date(Date.UTC(2020, 0, 1, 12, 23))

The following forms are accepted by parse:

  • YYYY
  • YYYY-MM
  • YYYY-MM-DD
  • YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM
  • YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MMZ
  • YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS
  • YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SSZ
  • YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.MMM
  • YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.MMMZ

The year YYYY may also be represented as +YYYYYY or -YYYYYY. The time zone Z may be represented as a literal Z for UTC, or as +HH:MM, -HH:MM, +HHMM, or -HHMM. (The two-digit time zone offset +HH or -HH is not supported; although part of ISO 8601, this format is not recognized by Chrome or Node. And although ISO 8601 does not allow the time zone -00:00, it is allowed here because it is widely supported in implementations.)
