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 🙏

jl-sql - SQL for JSON and CSV files

Build Status

CLI frontend for https://github.com/avz/node-jl-sql-api

Installation

Warning: Node.js v6+ required

% sudo npm install -g jl-sql

Examples

Test dataset

% cat data.json
{"key": 2, "value": 2}
{"key": 1, "value": 3}
{"key": 3, "value": 6}
{"key": 3, "value": 4}
{"key": 1, "value": 5}
{"value": 7}
{"key": null, "value": 8}

GROUP BY

% cat data.json | jl-sql 'SELECT key, SUM(value) AS sum, COUNT(*) AS count GROUP BY key'
{"sum":7,"count":1}
{"key":1,"sum":8,"count":2}
{"key":2,"sum":2,"count":1}
{"key":3,"sum":10,"count":2}
{"key":null,"sum":8,"count":1}

ORDER BY

% cat data.json | jl-sql 'SELECT * ORDER BY key'
{"value":7}
{"key":1,"value":3}
{"key":1,"value":5}
{"key":2,"value":2}
{"key":3,"value":6}
{"key":3,"value":4}
{"key":null,"value":8}

WHERE

Use binding

% cat data.json | jl-sql --bind :key=1 'SELECT * WHERE key = :key'

or same thing inline

% cat data.json | jl-sql 'SELECT * WHERE key = 1'

will output

{"key":1,"value":3}
{"key":1,"value":5}

JOIN

We will need 2 files

% cat data.json
{"key": 2, "value": 2}
{"key": 1, "value": 3}
{"key": 3, "value": 6}
{"key": 3, "value": 4}
{"key": 1, "value": 5}
{"value": 7}
{"key": null, "value": 8}
% cat keyInfo.json
{"key": 1, "title": "first"}
{"key": 2, "title": "second"}
{"key": 3, "title": "third"}
% cat data.json | jl-sql --bind :info=keyInfo.json 'SELECT key, @info.title LEFT JOIN {:info} ON @info.key = key'
{}
{"key":1,"title":"first"}
{"key":1,"title":"first"}
{"key":2,"title":"second"}
{"key":3,"title":"third"}
{"key":3,"title":"third"}
{"key":null}

CSV support

% cat data.csv
key,value
2,2
1,3
3,6
3,4
1,5
,7

From stdin:

cat data.csv | jl-sql 'SELECT * FROM CSV(STDIN())'

From file:

jl-sql -b :data=data.csv 'SELECT * FROM CSV({:data})'

Output:

{"key":"2","value":"2"}
{"key":"1","value":"3"}
{"key":"3","value":"6"}
{"key":"3","value":"4"}
{"key":"1","value":"5"}
{"key":"","value":"7"}

Options

You can customize parsing by options:

cat data.csv | jl-sql 'SELECT * FROM CSV(STDIN(), {columns: ["a", "b"], encoding: "cp1251"})'
{"a":"key","b":"value"}
{"a":"2","b":"2"}
{"a":"1","b":"3"}
{"a":"3","b":"6"}
{"a":"3","b":"4"}
{"a":"1","b":"5"}
{"a":"","b":"7"}

List of available options:

  • detectNumbers - if true, the parser will attempt to convert input string to native types
  • detectDates - if true, the parser will attempt to convert input string to dates. It requires the "auto_parse" option
  • columns - list of fields as an array. By default autodiscovered in the first CSV line
  • delimiter - field delimiter, one character only. Defaults to , (comma)
  • ltrim - if true, ignore whitespace immediately following the delimiter. Does not remove whitespace in a quoted field.
  • rtrim - if true, ignore whitespace immediately preceding the delimiter. Does not remove whitespace in a quoted field.
  • skipEmptyLines - Don't generate records for lines containing empty column values (column matching /\s*/). Disable by default
  • encoding - input encoding
