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 🙏

Setup

$ npm install --save nestjs-unleash

Import the module with UnleashModule.forRoot(...) or UnleashModule.forRootAsync(...).

Synchronous configuration

Use UnleashModule.forRoot(). Available options are described in the UnleashModuleOptions interface.

@Module({
  imports: [
    UnleashModule.forRoot({
      url: "https://example.com/unleash",
      appName: "my-app-name",
      instanceId: "my-unique-instance",
    }),
  ],
})
export class MyModule {}

Asynchronous configuration

If you want to use your Unleash options dynamically, use UnleashModule.forRootAsync(). Use useFactory and inject to import your dependencies. Example using the ConfigService:

@Module({
  imports: [
    UnleashModule.forRootAsync({
      useFactory: (config: ConfigService) => ({
        url: config.get("UNLEASH_URL"),
        appName: config.get("UNLEASH_APP_NAME"),
        instanceId: config.get("UNLEASH_INSTANCE_ID"),
        refreshInterval: config.get("UNLEASH_REFRESH_INTERVAL"),
        metricsInterval: config.get("UNLEASH_METRICS_INTERVAL"),
      }),
      inject: [ConfigService],
    }),
  ],
})
export class MyModule {}

Usage in controllers or providers

In your controller use the UnleashService or the @IfEnabled(...) route decorator:

import { UnleashService } from "nestjs-unleash";

@Controller()
@UseGuards(UserGuard)
export class AppController {
  constructor(private readonly unleash: UnleashService) {}

  @Get("/")
  index(): string {
    // the UnleashService can be used in all controllerrs and provideers
    return this.unleash.isEnabled("test")
      ? "feature is active"
      : "feature is not active";
  }

  // Throws a NotFoundException if the feature is not enabled
  @IfEnabled("test")
  @Get("/foo")
  getFoo(): string {
    return "my foo";
  }
}

Custom context

The UnleashContext grants access to request related information like user ID or IP address.

In addition, the context can be dynamically enriched with further information and subsequently used in a separate strategy:

export interface MyCustomData {
  foo: string;
  bar: number;
}

@Injectable()
class SomeProvider {
  constructor(private readonly unleash: UnleashService<MyCustomData>) {}

  someMethod() {
    return this.unleash.isEnabled("someToggleName", undefined, {
      foo: "bar",
      bar: 123,
    })
      ? "feature is active"
      : "feature is not active";
  }
}

// Custom strategy with custom data:
@Injectable()
export class MyCustomStrategy implements UnleashStrategy {
  name = "MyCustomStrategy";

  isEnabled(
    _parameters: unknown,
    context: UnleashContext<MyCustomData>
  ): boolean {
    return context.customData?.foo === "bar";
  }
}

Configuration

NestJS-Unleash can be configured with the following options:

interface UnleashModuleOptions {
  /**
   * If "true", registers `UnleashModule` as a global module.
   * See: https://docs.nestjs.com/modules#global-modules
   *
   * @default true
   */
  global?: boolean;

  /**
   * URL of your Unleash server
   *
   * @example http://unleash.herokuapp.com/api/client
   */
  url: string;

  /**
   * Name of the application seen by unleash-server
   */
  appName: string;

  /**
   * Instance id for this application (typically hostname, podId or similar)
   */
  instanceId: string;

  /**
   * Additional options for the HTTP request to the Unleash server, e.g. custom
   * HTTP headers
   */
  http?: AxiosRequestConfig;

  /**
   * At which interval, in milliseconds, will this client update its feature
   * state
   */
  refreshInterval?: number;

  /**
   * At which interval, in milliseconds, will this client send metrics
   */
  metricsInterval?: number;

  /**
   * Array of custom strategies. These classes mus implement the `UnleashStrategy` interface.
   */
  strategies?: Type<UnleashStrategy>[];

  /**
   * `nestjs-unleash` sends an initial registration request to the unleash server at startup. This behavior can be disabled by this option.
   */
  disableRegistration?: boolean;

  /**
   * Some strategies depend on the user ID of the currently logged in user. The
   * user ID is expected by default in `request.user.id`. To customize this
   * behavior, a custom user ID factory can be provided.
   */
  userIdFactory?: (request: Request<{ id: string }>) => string;
}

Default strategies

This module supports the official standard activation strategies. They do not need to be activated separately and work out of the box.

Custom strategies

In order to create a custom strategy you have to create a class wich inplements the UnleashStrategy interface:

import { UnleashContext } from "nestjs-unleash";

export interface UnleashStrategy {
  /**
   * Must match the name you used to create the strategy in your Unleash
   * server UI
   */
  name: string;

  /**
   * Determines whether the feature toggle is active
   *
   * @param parameters Custom paramemters as configured in Unleash server UI
   * @param context applicaton/request context, i.e. UserID
   */
  isEnabled(parameters: unknown, context: UnleashContext): boolean;
}

Example custom strategy:

import { Injectable } from "@nestjs/common";
import { UnleashContext, UnleashStrategy } from "nestjs-unleash";

@Injectable()
export class MyCustomStrategy implements UnleashStrategy {
  name = "MyCustomStrategy";

  isEnabled(parameters: any, context: UnleashContext): boolean {
    return Math.random() < 0.5;
  }
}

Now you can use it your module setup as follows:

import { MyCustomStrategy } from "./my-custom-strategy";

@Module({
  imports: [
    UnleashModule.forRoot({
      // ...
      strategies: [MyCustomStrategy],
    }),
  ],
})
export class ApplicationModule {}
