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 🙏

Simple directional stream multiplexer: send multiple streams over a single carrier.

Setup the muxer and pipe it to the demuxer.

Then get multiple named writable streams from the muxer, pipe data into them and the demuxer receives the named readable streams that will emit the data.

:warning: Early release, handle with care :sunglasses:

Note

  • Currently there is an upper limit of 255 active streams.
  • To send objects use JSON streams for simple objects, Buffo to stream all native JavaScript types, or any other object encoder of your choice.

Alternatives

I've used multiplex for some time, but had some weird decoding issues. Besides some null bytes errors the recursive decoding broke my stack when streaming large amounts of very small chunks. I couldn't find how to fix this in the more complex logic and it's dependencies.

Since I don't need duplex functionality I created muxie to mirror the same API but with a simpler (naïve?) implementation.

Todo

  • Check more edge-cases
  • Figure-out backpressure

Install

$ npm install muxie

Usage

var muxie = require('muxie');

// create a demuxer that will receive new streams
var demux = muxie.demuxer(function (stream, name) {
	// received a new readable stream
	// ..
});

// create muxer
var mux = muxie.muxer();

// create a named writable stream
var stream = mux.create('myStream');

// pipe data to the stream
fs.createReadStream('test/fixtures/lorem.txt').pipe(stream);

Build

Install development dependencies in your git checkout:

$ npm install

Build and run tests using grunt:

$ grunt test

See the Gruntfile.js for additional commands.
