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 🙏

json-mapper

Just a simple json mapper.

How to use

Very simple case:


var input = {
    user: {
        name: 'John',
        nick: 'C00lHacker'
    }
};

var JM = require('json-mapper');

var converter = JM.makeConverter({
    name: function(input){
            if (!input.user){
                return;
            } else {
                return input.user.name;
            }
    }
});

var result = converter(input);

console.log(result); // should be {name: 'John'}

Let's add a bit sugar by using factory method getVal


var converter = JM.makeConverter({
    name: JV.getVal('user.name');
});

The syntax 'user.name' equals JM.getVal('user.name')


var converter = JM.makeConverter({
    name: 'user.name';
});

If you want to chain callbacks use ch factory


var input = {
  user: {
      name: 'Alex',
      nickname: 'FOfan'
  },
  locations: [
      {x:1, y:21}, // i need this x
      {x:2, y:22},
      {x:3, y:23},
      {x:4, y:24},
      {x:5, y:25},
      {x:6, y:26},
      {x:7, y:27},
      {x:8, y:28},
      {x:9, y:29},
      {x:10, y:30},
      {x:11, y:31},
      {x:12, y:32}
  ],
  uuid: 'ffffffff-aaaaaaaa-c0c0afafc1c1fefe0-cfcf1234'
};


var JM = require('json-mapper');
var converter = JM.makeConverter({
    val: JM.ch(
                function(input){ return input.locations; },
                function(input){ return input[0]; },
                function(input){ return input.x; }
            )
});

var result = converter(input); // should be {val: 1}

This stuff can be simplified by using array, e.g.:


var input = {
  user: {
      name: 'Alex',
      nickname: 'FOfan'
  },
  locations: [
      {x:1, y:21}, // i need this x
      {x:2, y:22},
      {x:3, y:23},
      {x:4, y:24},
      {x:5, y:25},
      {x:6, y:26},
      {x:7, y:27},
      {x:8, y:28},
      {x:9, y:29},
      {x:10, y:30},
      {x:11, y:31},
      {x:12, y:32}
  ],
  uuid: 'ffffffff-aaaaaaaa-c0c0afafc1c1fefe0-cfcf1234'
};


var JM = require('json-mapper');

var converter = JM.makeConverter({
    val: [
        function(input){ return input.locations; },
        function(input){ return input[0]; },
        function(input){ return input.x; }
    ]
});

var result = converter(input); // should be {val: 1}

JM.ch function also can convert 'some.path' to JM.getVal('some.path').
There is a map factory for arrays processing.


var input = {
    user: {
        name: 'Alex',
        nickname: 'FOfan'
    },
    locations: [
        {x:1, y:21}, // i need this x
        {x:2, y:22},
        {x:3, y:23},
        {x:4, y:24},
        {x:5, y:25},
        {x:6, y:26},
        {x:7, y:27},
        {x:8, y:28},
        {x:9, y:29},
        {x:10, y:30},
        {x:11, y:31},
        {x:12, y:32}
    ],
    uuid: 'ffffffff-aaaaaaaa-c0c0afafc1c1fefe0-cfcf1234'
};


var JM = require('json-mapper');

var converter = JM.makeConverter({
    val: JM.ch('locations', JM.map(function(input){ return input.x; }))
});

var result = converter(input); // should be {val: [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12]}

or


var converter = JM.makeConverter({
    val: ['locations', JM.map('x')]
});
    

Use JM.makeCb(val) to convert path to getVal

Returning map:

| input | return | |:-----:|:------:| | function | function | | string | getVal(val) | | array | ch.apply(null,val) | | hash | schema(val) |

New feature is '$root' alias


var JM = require('json-mapper');

var input = {
    uuid: '1233123123',
    user: {
        name: 'sergey'
    },
    objects: [
        'atoken',
        'btoken',
        'ctoken',
        'dtoken',
        'etoken',
        'Fplane',
        'Splane',
        'nodejs',
        'memcache',
        'sql',
        'tpl',
        'ej'
    ]
};

var converter = JM.makeConverter({
    originalObject: '$root',
    uuid: 'uuid',
    link: [
        JM.helpers.templateStrong('http://127.0.0.1/users/?name={user.name}'),
        JM.helpers.templateStrong('<a href="{$root}">user</a>')
    ],
    objects: ['objects', JM.map(JM.helpers.templateStrong('http://127.0.0.1/objects/{$root}'))]
});

console.log('\n\n\n\ convert with template & root', converter(input));

Result:


{
    originalObject: {
        uuid: '1233123123',
        user: {name: 'sergey'},
        objects: [
            'atoken',
            'btoken',
            'ctoken',

            'sql',

    })]
});

console.log('\n\n\n convert with template \n\n', converter(input));

templateStrong will return undefined if there is undefined keys

def


var JM = require('json-mapper');

var converter = JM.makeConverter({
    uuid: JM.helpers.def('14')
});

console.log('\n\n\n convert with default \n\n', converter({}));

Result:


{
    uuid: '14'
}

JM.helpers.def(val) - always returns val

valOrDef


var JM = require('json-mapper');

var converter = JM.makeConverter({
    uuid:  [ 'uuid' , JM.helpers.def('14') ],
    uuid2: [ 'uuid2', JM.helpers.valOrDef('15') ]
});

console.log('\n\n\n convert with default \n\n', converter({
    'uuid': '15',
    'uuid2': '17'
}));

Result:


{
    uuid: '14',
    uuid2: '17'
}

If input is null or undefined JM.helpers.valOrDef(val) will return val, otherwise input will be returned.

dict


var JM = require('json-mapper');

var converter = JM.makeConverter({
    type: [
        'type' ,
        JM.helpers.dict({
            1: 'fit',
            2: 'crop',
            3: 'fit'
        })
    ]
});

console.log('\n\n\n convert with default \n\n', converter({
    'type': 1
}));

Result:


{
    type: 'fit'
}

toBoolean, toNumber, toString, toUndefined, filterUndefined


var JM = require('json-mapper');
var h = JM.helpers;

var converter = JM.makeConverter({
    isGuest: ['role', h.toBoolean],
    isUser: ['user', h.toBoolean],
    role: ['role', h.toString],
    userId: ['userId', h.toNumber],
    catalogId: ['catalogId', h.toNumber],
    catalogId2: ['catalogId', h.toNumber, h.toUndefined],
    catalogId3: ['catalogId', h.filterUndefined(function(input){
        // input always not undefined
        return input + '1';
    })],
    catalogId4: ['UndefinedCatalogId', h.filterUndefined(function(input){
        // input always not undefined
        return input + '1';
    })]
});


console.log('\n\n\n convert to boolean and to number \n\n', converter({
    "role": 2,
    "userId": '13',
    "catalogId": 'somethingLiteral'
}));

Result is:


{
    isGuest: true,
    role: '2',
    userId: 13,
    catalogId: NaN,
    catalogId3: 'somethingLiteral1'
}

Dict creates a dictionary and returns value by key.
