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 🙏

📥 Installation

Install Klaim via npm:

// Using npm
npm install klaim

// Using bun
bun add klaim

// Using deno
deno add @antharuu/klaim

🛠 Usage

Basic API Configuration

First, set up the API configuration. Define the API and its base URL.

import {Api, Route} from 'klaim';
// For deno: import { Api, Route } from "@antharuu/klaim";

// Your simple Todo type
type Todo = {
    userId: number;
    id: number;
    title: string;
    completed: boolean;
};

// Create a new API with the name "hello" and the base URL "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/"
Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Define routes for the API
    Route.get<Todo[]>("listTodos", "todos");
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]");
    Route.post<Todo>("addTodo", "todos");
});

Route Definition

Define various routes within the API callback:

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Get a list of todos
    Route.get<Todo[]>("listTodos", "todos");

    // Get a specific todo by id
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]");

    // Add a new todo
    Route.post<Todo>("addTodo", "todos");
});

Request Handling

Handle requests using the defined routes:

import {Klaim} from 'klaim';
// For deno: import { Klaim } from "@antharuu/klaim";

// Make a request to the "listTodos" route
const listOfTodos = await Klaim.hello.listTodos<Todo[]>();

// Make a request to the "getTodo" route with the parameter "id"
const todo = await Klaim.hello.getTodo<Todo>({id: 1});

// Make a request to the "addTodo" route
const newTodo = await Klaim.hello.addTodo<Todo>({}, {title: "New Todo", completed: false, userId: 1});

Middleware Usage

Add middleware to modify requests and responses. Use before middleware to alter requests before they are sent and after middleware to process responses:

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // With before middleware
    Route.get<Todo>("getRandomTodo", "todos")
        .before(({url}) => {
            const random = Math.floor(Math.random() * 10) + 1;
            return {url: `${url}/${random}`};
        });

    // With after middleware
    Route.get<Todo>("getFirstTodo", "todos")
        .after(({data: [first]}) => ({data: first}));
});

Hook Subscription

Subscribe to hooks to monitor specific events:

import {Hook} from 'klaim';
// For deno: import { Hook } from "@antharuu/klaim";

// Subscribe to the "hello.getFirstTodo" hook
Hook.subscribe("hello.getFirstTodo", ({url}) => {
    console.log(`Requesting ${url}`);
});

Caching Requests

Enable caching on requests to reduce network load and improve performance. By default, the cache duration is 20 seconds, but you can specify a custom duration in seconds.

Caching Individual Routes

You can enable caching on individual routes:

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Get a list of todos with default cache duration (20 seconds)
    Route.get<Todo[]>("listTodos", "todos").withCache();

    // Get a specific todo by id with custom cache duration (300 seconds)
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]").withCache(300);

    // Add a new todo (no cache)
    Route.post<Todo>("addTodo", "todos");
});

Now, when making requests, the caching feature will be applied.

Caching the Entire API

You can also enable caching for all routes defined within an API:

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Define routes for the API
    Route.get<Todo[]>("listTodos", "todos");
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]");
    Route.post<Todo>("addTodo", "todos");
}).withCache(); // Enable default cache duration (20 seconds) for all routes

Retry Mechanism

Automatically retry failed requests to enhance reliability. You can specify the number of retry attempts for individual routes or for the entire API.

Retry on Individual Routes

Enable retry on individual routes:

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Get a list of todos with retry mechanism (default: 2)
    Route.get<Todo[]>("listTodos", "todos").withRetry();

    // Get a specific todo by id with retry mechanism (specified to 5)
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]").withRetry(5);

    // Add a new todo (no retry)
    Route.post<Todo>("addTodo", "todos");
});

Retry the Entire API

Enable retry for all routes defined within an API:

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Define routes for the API
    Route.get<Todo[]>("listTodos", "todos");
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]");
    Route.post<Todo>("addTodo", "todos");
}).withRetry();

Now, when a request fails, it will be retried the specified number of times before ultimately failing.

Response Validation

You can use Yup to validate the response schema for increased reliability and consistency. You can specify a schema for individual routes to ensure the response data conforms to the expected structure.

⚠️ Note: This feature requires the yup package to be installed.

Adding Validation to Individual Routes

Enable validation on individual routes:

import * as yup from 'yup';

// Define the schema using Yup
const todoSchema = yup.object().shape({
    userId: yup.number().required(),
    id: yup.number().min(1).max(10).required(),
    title: yup.string().required(),
    completed: yup.boolean().required()
});

Api.create("hello", "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/", () => {
    // Get a specific todo by id with validation
    Route.get<Todo>("getTodo", "todos/[id]").validate(todoSchema);
});

// This request will fail because the id is out of range
const todoFail = await Klaim.hello.getTodo<Todo>({id: 15});

// This request will succeed
const todo = await Klaim.hello.getTodo<Todo>({id: 1});
