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 🙏

Create singleton with lazy initialization from any class

Readme

Lazy Load Singleton NPM version

Tiny library that transforms any class to singleton with lazy initialization.

Installation

npm i --save lazy-load-singleton
# or
yarn add lazy-load-singleton

Behaviour

When you wrap a class with the libary, it returns an object that has init method with signature that equals to constuctor's signature and proxies all properties accessment to class instance. This libary will be helpful in situations where your singleton is inialized base on event (e.g 'ready'), not during first code execution. You can read more details about motivation and solution in my article.

Example

Assume you have database class that accepts connection string in constructor. Your environment is event-based and you can't initialize class right away.

Singleton

import LazySingleton from 'lazy-load-singleton';

class DBConnection {
  isClosed = false;

  constructor(connectionString) {}
  performQuery(query, values) {}
}

export default LazySingleton(DBConnection)

Initialization and usage

import db from './db';

app.on('ready', config => {
  db.init(config.dbConnectionString); // #init signature equals to constructor signature
});

//...

app.on('create-user', user => {
  if (!db.isClosed) { // has access to properties
    // has access to methods
    db.performQuery(` 
      INSERT INTO users(id, name)
      VALUES($1, $2)
    `, [user.id, user.name])
  }
});
