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 🙏

maker-webtask

Consume message between IFFT (Maker) and other webtask-queue consumers

Setup

  1. Follow the steps to setup a webtask queue
  2. Setup your IFTTT Channel to listen for maker commands at the queue output above. You will want it to POST a body similar to the below:
{
    "device": "<NAME OF DEVICE TO LISTEN FOR>",
    "command": "<SPECIFIC DETAILS TO REACT UPON>"
}
  1. Set an environment variable for the webtask queue above
  2. Set the environment variable MAKER_WEBTASK_URL giving it the above url
  3. Set the environment variable WEBTASK_SECRET giving it the secret used in the step above
  4. Add the package as an NPM package reacting to these commands
var makerWebtask = require('maker-webtask');
var webtaskUrl = ...; // The url from the first step above
function turnOnLight(message) {
  if (message.command === 'on') {
    // Turn light on
  }
}
var pollingInterval = 5; // Check the queue every 5 seconds due to quotas
makerWebtask.run('lightbulb', turnLightOn, pollingInterval);

With the above example, when Maker calls the above URL with the following body:

{
    "device": "lightbulb",
    "command": "on"
}

The light will turn on.
