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 🙏

maezato project logo

Background for the name

The name of this project, maezato is a tribute to the late Mr Shinken Taira (平 信賢) from Kumejima, Okinawa, Japan, who was one of the greatest individuals for preserving the history of the Ryukyu Martial Arts and thus enabling the students of those arts to study them today. Without his efforts, it is very likely that several pieces of information would have been lost for good.

Installation

Install globally with npm, as this tool is a command line tool:

npm install --global maezato

Please note that git should be available in the system where this tool is planned to be used.

Please note that the minimum supported version of Node.js is 14.15.0, which is the active Long Term Support (LTS) version.

Usage

It is possible to use this tool to retrieve all public repositories for a given user from Bitbucket or GitHub. Authentication is currently used only for GitHub, while Bitbucket is used via public API interface.

This tool uses the GitHub API v4 and requires a personal API token for authentication. The token should be set to an environment variable called GITHUB_TOKEN or the command line option named --token.

export GITHUB_TOKEN=123456789123456789123456789123456789

Use via command line, always with exactly two arguments and with possible options:

maezato [options] <username> <target path, defaults to current directory>

The cloning of a given repository uses the ssh_url property, hence the SSH keys should be configured properly.

Possible command line options are:

-h, --help              Help and usage instructions
-V, --version           Version number
-v, --verbose           Verbose output, will print which file is currently being processed
-t, --token String      GitHub API personal authentication token
-a, --include-archived  Include also repositories that have been archived
-O, --omit-username     Omit the username directory when creating directory structure

For example getting all of the repositories of @nodejs under ~/github:

maezato nodejs ~/github

Directory structure and git remotes

<target path>/
    <username>/
        contributing/
            [repositories that are not owned nor forks]
        forks/
            [fork repositories ...]
        mine/
            [repositories which the user owns but are not forks]

The fork repositories will have several git remote urls:

  • origin is the given fork repository
  • upstream is the repository from which this is a direct fork

There remote urls can be seen with the git command:

git remote -v

Contributing

First thing to do is to file an issue. Then possibly open a Pull Request for solving the given issue. ESLint is used for linting the code and tape for unit testing. Please use them by doing:

npm install
npm run lint
npm test

"A Beginner's Guide to Open Source: The Best Advice for Making your First Contribution".

Also there is a blog post about "45 Github Issues Dos and Don’ts".

Linting is done with ESLint and can be executed with npm run lint. There should be no errors appearing after any JavaScript file changes.

Unit tests are written with tape and can be executed with npm test. Code coverage is inspected with nyc and can be executed with npm run coverage after running npm test. Please make sure it is over 90% at all times.

Version history

Changes happening across different versions and upcoming changes are tracked in the CHANGELOG.md file.
