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 🙏

Methods

JsonSocket(options)

JsonSocket(port, [host])

JsonSocket(path)

Create new json socket. Same as net.connect.

var socket = new JsonSocket(7000, '127.0.0.1');

JsonSocket(socket)

Create new json socket from existingnet.Socket

var net = require('net');
var server = net.createServer(function (con) {
    var socket = new JsonSocket(con);
}

disconnect()

Destroy connection

connect(port, [host])

connect(path)

Same as net.Socket.connect

on(eventType, listener)

Inherited from events.EventEmitter.

Events

connect

Emitted when socket connected (only when you pass ip, port).

json

Emitted when full json received.

socket.on('json', function (json) {
    console.log(json);
}

disconnect

Error events are treated as a special case in node. If there is no listener for it, then the default action is to print a stack trace and exit the program.

see more.

newListener, removeListener

Logging

You can enable logging. See more

# disabled logging
node test.js

# connect, disconnect log
DEBUG=JsonSocket:connection node test.js

# data log

# all json socket logs

Protocol

We send json objects over socket then write one \0. This is c/c++ friendly protocol. :smile:
