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 🙏

metalsmith-loader

Loads Metalsmith as well as multiple metalsmith plugins using globbing patterns

Build Status Dependency Status devDependency Status Code Climate

This plugin takes reference from / works similarly to load-grunt-task, allowing you to read the dependencies/devDependencies/peerDependencies in your package.json and load metalsmith plugins that matches the provided patterns.

Usually you would have to load each plugin one by one, which is unnecessarily cumbersome.

That aside, it also gives an option to load metalsmith library itself.

Before

var Metalsmith = require('metalsmith');
var drafts = require('metalsmith-drafts');
var permalinks = require('metalsmith-permalinks');
var collections = require('metalsmith-collections');

After

require('metalsmith-loader')();

Install

Install with npm: npm install --save-dev metalsmith-loader

Simplest use case:

var config = require('metalsmith-loader')();

Metalsmith(__dirname).use(config.collections());

or if you want it global:

require('metalsmith-loader')({global: true);

Metalsmith(__dirname).use(collections());

To specify additional options:

require('metalsmith-loader')({
  core: true,
	pattern: 'metalsmith-*',
	config: '../package.json',
	scope: 'devDependencies',
	global: true
});

Options

core (optional)

Type: boolean Default: false

Determines if metalsmith should be loaded.

pattern (optional)

Type: String|Object Default: metalsmith-*

By default metalsmith-* will be used as the globbing pattern.

config (optional)

Type: String|Object
Default: Path to nearest package.json

scope (optional)

Type: String|Array
Default: ['dependencies', 'devDependencies', 'peerDependencies']

global (optional)

Type: boolean Default: false

Determines if plugin should require modules into the global variable environment or put the modules into a return object / dictionary.
