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 🙏

Money Converter

There are plenty of currency converter packages out there, each getting their conversion rates from different places. Money Converter looks at multiple sources to ensure that you always have the most accurate exchange rate avaialable. Its fast, simple, light weight and most importantly, fault resistant.

Install

npm install money-converter

Usage

To make sure that money-converter is as fast as possible, you pass it in an array of currencies and a bse currency. money-converter will then load the conversion rate between your base currency and each of the other currencies. This async process must be completed before the module can be used

we're going to be using the popular async module here for demonstation of how load the currencies before using them

make sure to include the base currency in the list of currencies you pass into the constructor

var MoneyConverter = require('monver-converter');
var async = require('async');

var money;

async.series([

  // load and cache currency conversions
  // the base currency is USD
  function(done) {
    money = new MoneyConverter('USD', ['CAD', 'GBP', 'EUR', 'USD'], done)
  }

  // example of how we want to actually use it
  function(done) {

    money.convert(1000, {from: 'USD', to: 'EUR'});
    // => 914

    money.convert(10, {from: 'CAD', to: 'EUR'});
    // => 6.655501347120076

    money.convert(1, {from: 'GBP', to: 'USD'});
    // => 1.50534397109739

    done();
  }
