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

MediaWiki bare minimum promise-based API wrapper

This library, initially written by the original developer of MediaWiki API, is a minimalistic set of functions to help access Wikipedia and other MW sites.

Thi library does not try to wrap any of the MediaWiki's APIs with functions. Instead, it handles errors, warnings, continuations, basic datatypes, without hiding any MW API with extra functions. Other libraries may choose to use this library as the base, and build richer interface.

Eventually the goal is to make this library equaly usable from NodeJS and browser.

NodeJS

var MWApi = require('mwapi'),
    mwapi = new MWApi(
        'Name of my program (email@ and wikiUser)',
        'https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php'),

    mwapi.iterate({
        // Execute 'query' call to MW API
        action: 'query',
        prop: 'revisions',
        titles: ['API', 'Main%20Page'],
        rvprop: 'content'
    }, function(response) {
         // process response object
         // return either boolean or a promise of a boolean
         // if true, continue iterating, false to stop
    }).then(function()) {
        // done
    };
