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

Middleware Chain

Chain your node.js functions.

Middleware Chain allows you to simply chain your syncronous / asyncronous middleware functions. It works in a very similar way to how express handles middleware.

Works really well using the consign module to autoload your scripts.

Usage

chain([context], chain);
var chain = require('middleware-chain');

chain([ one, two, three ]);

// Optionally pass in context
var app = { hello: 'world' };
chain(app, [ one, two, three ]);

Please check out the examples or test folder for more!

Installation

$ npm install middleware-chain

Features

  • Chain functions / middleware
  • Works with both asyncronous and syncronous functions
  • Brings structure to scripts with a lot of callbacks
  • Allows modifiable flow
  • Ability to pass in initial context
  • Chains are nestable
  • Ability for parrallel chains
  • Test driven
  • Fast, Light-weight with no external dependencies

Context parameter

The optional context object is passed in as the first parameter, it can be an object containing anything you'd like to access throughout your middleware chain.

Chain parameter

The chain parameter is required, it's an array containing functions to be called in order.

Tests

To run the test suite, first install the dependencies, then run npm test:

$ npm install
$ npm test

Full Example

var chain = require('middleware-chain');

function one(context, next) {
  setTimeout(function() {
    context.one = 'Hello';
    console.log('Hello from one', context);
    return next();
  }, 1000);
}

function two(context, next) {
  setTimeout(function() {
    context.two = 'Hello';
    console.log('Hello from two', context);
    return next();
  }, 1000);
}

function three(context, next) {
  setTimeout(function() {
    context.three = 'Hello';
    console.log('Hello from three', context);
  }, 1000);
}

chain([ one, two, three ]);

Output

Hello from one
Hello from two
Hello from three
