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

mock-req

Mocks node.js http.IncomingMessage (a request). See also mock-res.

Being a readable/writable stream, you can pipe the request body to and from it.

Usage

See test.js for further usage.

var MockReq = require('mock-req');

// Basic usage
var req = new MockReq();

// With options
var req = new MockReq({
	method: 'PUT',
	url: '/stuff?q=thing',
	headers: {
		'Accept': 'text/plain'
	},

	// arbitrary properties:
	search: 'thing'
});

// Write body
req.write('hello');
req.write('world');

// Or stringify to JSON
req.write({
	val: 5
});

// Or even buffers
req.write(new Buffer('buf'));

// End body
req.end();

// NOTE req.end() is automatically called if 
// method is set to GET/HEAD/DELETE.

Example test case

var assert = require('assert');
var ping = require('./ping-handler');
var MockReq = require('mock-req');

function test(done) {
	/* Arrange */
	var req = new MockReq({
		method: 'GET',
		url: '/stuff',
		headers: {
			'Accept': 'text/plain'
		}
	});

	// NOTE: `req.end()` is automatically called for GET/HEAD/DELETE methods

	// Use `mock-res` for a better mock
	var res = {
		end: end
	};

	/* Act */
	ping(req, res);

	/* Assert */
	function end(data) {
		assert.equal(data, 'okay');

		done(); // this is an async test
	}
}

Options

The options parameter is optional.

  • method: The request's method, defaults to 'GET'
  • url: The request's URL, defaults to ''
  • headers: A case insensitive name/value object

All other values will be copied to the request.

Methods

  • All readable/writable stream methods.
  • req._fail(error) Causes the request to emit an error when written to.
