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

Description

Headless social share for Angular. Provides straightforward API for getting social share URLs which can be used in your templates.

npm version License: MIT Open Source Love

ng-social-links advantages:

  • Native to Angular.
  • Configurable - you can globally define share URL, title and email body at module import.
  • Well typed - it's clear which parameters are relevant to every social share provider.
  • Works well in SSR mode.

Usage

Install package

npm i ng-social-links

Add import to your module

import { NgSocialLinksModule } from 'ng-social-links';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    ...
    NgSocialLinksModule.forRoot(),
    ],
  declarations: [],
  providers: []
})

Inject the service:

import { NgSocialLinksService } from 'ng-social-links';

class SomeComponent {
  constructor(private socialLinks: NgSocialLinksService) {}
}

Get the socail share links:

facebookShareLink = this.socialLinks.getShareLink('fa');

With additional parameters:

twitterShareLink = this.socialLinks.getShareLink('tw', { title: 'Visit my website!' });

Configuration

The configuration interface looks like this:

interface Config {
  url?: string;
  title?: string;
  description?: string;
}

By default document.location.href is used for url, title and description are empty.

You can define another defaults as follows:

NgSocialLinksModule.forRoot({ url: 'htts://my-website.com' })

Or

NgSocialLinksModule.forRoot({ title: 'Visit my website!', description: 'Default email body...' })

ng-social-links is headless, so you're free to use whatever you like in a template. e.g. text links, icons, buttons, you name it. For example:

<a [attr.href]="facebookShareLink">
  <fa-icon [icon]="faFacebook"></fa-icon>
</a>

Another option is to create a popup window:

const telegramLink = facebookShareLink = this.socialLinks.getShareLink('tg');


window.open(telegramLink,'SocialSharePopup','width=600,height=600');
