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 🙏

Readme

luvit-method-override

Middleware for luvit.io and Utopia that lets you use HTTP verbs such as PUT or DELETE in places where the client doesn't support it.

Install

npm install luvit-method-override

If you're not familiar with npm check this out:

  • https://github.com/voronianski/luvit-npm-example#how-to
  • https://github.com/luvitrocks/luvit-module-boilerplate#whats-npm

API

NOTE It is very important that this module is used before any module that needs to know the method of the request.

methodOverride(getter)

Middleware function to override the req.method property with a new value. This value will be pulled from the provided getter.

Options

  • getter - the string getter to use to look up the overridden request method for the request, default X-HTTP-Method-Override

Getter

This is the method of getting the override value from the request. String value should be provided, it is used to look up the method with the following rules:

  • if the string starts with X-, then it is treated as the name of a header and that header is used for the method override. If the request contains the same header multiple times, the first occurrence is used

  • all other strings are treated as a key in the URL query string

Examples

1. Override using a header

local utopia = require('luvit-utopia')
local methodOverride = require('luvit-method-override')

local app = utopia:new()

app:use(methodOverride('X-HTTP-Method-Override'))

app:listen(8080)

Example call on client:

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.onload = onload;
xhr.open('POST', '/resource', true);
xhr.setRequestHeader('X-HTTP-Method-Override', 'DELETE');
xhr.send();

function onload () {
  alert('got response: ' + this.responseText);
}

2. Override using a query value

local utopia = require('luvit-utopia')
local methodOverride = require('luvit-method-override')

local app = utopia:new()

app:use(methodOverride('_method'))

app:listen(8080)

Example call with query override using HTML form:

<form method="POST" action="/resource?_method=DELETE">
	<button type="submit">Delete resource</button>
</form>
