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 🙏

    if(!error) {
      console.log('I am a queue object', queue);
    }
  });
  // disk storage, queue will be created if it not exist

Queue

Queue Object

Getters

  • getName(): will return the name of the queue.

Put

Parameters: message, delay, priority, callback.

  • message: (STRING) the message data (mandatory);
  • delay: (INT) delay in seconds, default: 0 (optional);
  • priority: (INT) priority of the message, default: 0 (optional);
  • tag: (STRING) tag of the message, default: null (optional);
  • callback (FUNCTION) the callback function (mandatory).

Important: Message data needs to be less or equal 4096 bytes.

// not delayed and priority default
queue.put('my message data', function(error, messageId) {
  if(!error) {
    console.log('success, message id = ' + messageId);
  }
});
// 5 seconds delayed and priority default
queue.put('my message data', 5, function(error, messageId) {
  if(!error) {
    console.log('success, message id = ' + messageId);
  }
});
// 5 seconds delayed and priority 1 (higher than default 0)
queue.put('my message data', 5, 1, function(error, messageId) {
  if(!error) {
    console.log('success, message id = ' + messageId);
  }
});
// 5 seconds delayed, priority 1 and tag 'testTag'
queue.put('my message data', 5, 1, 'testTag', function(error, messageId) {
  if(!error) {
    console.log('success, message id = ' + messageId);
  }
});
// you need set delay if you want to set priority,
// if you do not want to delay message set delay to 0

// not delayed and priority 1 (higher than default 0)
queue.put('my message data', 0, 1, function(error, messageId) {
  if(!error) {
    console.log('success, message id = ' + messageId);
  }
});
// you need set delay and priority if you want to set tag,
// if you do not want to delay message set delay to 0
// if you do not want to priority message set priority to 0

// not delayed, no priority and tag 'testTag'
queue.put('my message data', 0, 0, 'testTag', function(error, messageId) {
  if(!error) {
    console.log('success, message id = ' + messageId);
  }
});

Reserve

Parameters: timeToRun, callback.

  • timeToRun: (INT) time to process message in seconds, default: 5 (optional);
  • tag: (STRING) tag of the message, default: null (optional);
  • callback (FUNCTION) the callback function (mandatory).

Important: If there is no message in queue, the message object in callback will be undefined. timeToRun is the time that the message will be reserved.

// default time to run (5 seconds)
queue.reserve(function(error, message) {
  if(!error && message) {
    console.log('I am a message object', message);
  }
});
// time to run of 3 seconds
queue.reserve(3, function(error, message) {
  if(!error && message) {
    console.log('I am a message object', message);
  }
});
// time to run of 3 seconds and tag 'testTag'
queue.reserve(3, 'testTag', function(error, message) {
  if(!error && message) {
    console.log('I am a message object', message);
  }
});
// you have to set time to run to set tag
// if you do not want time to run set time to run to 5

// not set time to run and tag 'testTag'
queue.reserve(5, 'testTag', function(error, message) {
  if(!error && message) {
    console.log('I am a message object', message);
  }
});

Watch

Parameters: timeToRun, intervalTime, callback.

  • timeToRun: (INT) time to process message in seconds, default: 5 (optional);
  • intervalTime: (INT) period of check for new messages in milliseconds, default: 1000 (optional);
  • tag: (STRING) tag of the message, default: null (optional);
  • callback (FUNCTION) the callback function (mandatory).

Important: timeToRun is the time that the message will be reserved. When a message is reserved the watching is stopped, so you need to call watch again if you want a new message

// default time to run (5 seconds), default interval time (1000 milliseconds)
queue.watch(function(error, message) {
  if(!error && message) {
    console.log('I am a message object', message);
  }
});
// time to run of 3 seconds, default interval time (1000 milliseconds)
queue.watch(3, function(error, message) {
  if(!error && message) {
    console.log('I am a message object', message);
  }
});
// you need set timeToRun if you want to set intervalTime

// time to run of 3 seconds, interval time of 500 millisenconds
queue.watch(3, 500, function(error, message) {
  if(!error && message) {
    console.log('I am a message object', message);
  }
});
// you need set timeToRun and intervalTime if you want to set tag

// time to run of 3 seconds, interval time of 500 millisenconds and tag 'testTag'
queue.watch(3, 500, 'testTag', function(error, message) {
  if(!error && message) {
    console.log('I am a message object', message);
  }
});
// watch retuns a function that you can call to interrupt watch
var watcher = queue.watch(function(error, message) {
  if(!error && message) {
    console.log('I am a message object', message);
  }
});

watcher.cancel(); // Stop watching

  • callback (FUNCTION) the callback function (mandatory).
// if you do not set a max number, all buried messages will be kicked

// max default (all), not delayed
queue.kick(function(error) {
  if(!error) {
    console.log('success');
  }
});

queue.kick(20, function(error) {
  if(!error) {
    console.log('success');
  }
});

  if(!error) {
    console.log('success');
  }
});
// 3 seconds delayed and tag 'testTag'
message.release(3, 'testTag', function(error) {
  if(!error) {
    console.log('success');
  }
});
// you have to set delay to set tag
// if you do not want delay set delay to 0

// not delayed and tag 'testTag'
message.release(0, 'testTag', function(error, message) {
  if(!error && message) {
    console.log('I am a message object', message);
  }
});

Touch

Parameters: callback.

  • callback (FUNCTION) the callback function (mandatory).
message.touch(function(error) {
  if(!error) {
    console.log('success');
  }
});

Delete

Parameters: callback.

  • callback (FUNCTION) the callback function (mandatory).
message.delete(function(error) {
  if(!error) {
    console.log('success');
  }
});

Bury

Parameters: callback.

  • callback (FUNCTION) the callback function (mandatory).
message.bury(function(error) {
  if(!error) {
    console.log('success');
  }
});

Callbacks standard

The callbacks functions need to respect the callback standard (error, data). So, when you set a callback function, make sure that there at least an error parameter. Even if no error occurs, the error parameter needs to be set, but in this case, the error value will be null.
