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

node-amd-require

node-amd-require is a small script which adds AMD-style path resolution and define support to node's require() function. It can be used as an AMD loader or to add path configuration support to CommonJS modules.

Installation

Using npm:

npm install node-amd-require

Usage

require node-amd-require in your project's main entry point and call with your desired AMD-style configuration. Supports baseUrl, paths, and packages. Also supports the mainConfigFile property recursively.

/* [your index.js file or similar] */

require('node-amd-require')({
	//configuration from https://github.com/zship/deferreds.js
	baseUrl: '.',
	paths: {
		"deferreds": "src",
		"mout": "lib/mout",
	}
});

var path = require('path');
var fs = require('fs');
//...

Or pass a path to a .json file containing your configuration:

/* [your index.js file or similar] */

require('node-amd-require')('/path/to/config.json');

var path = require('path');
var fs = require('fs');
//...

Features

  • Adds AMD configuration-based path resolution to require for AMD and/or CommonJS modules
  • Adds define and RequireJS loader plugin support to require via amdefine and the require.extensions mechanism.
  • Unlike requirejs in node, node-amd-require can support downstream scripts which directly call require on your possibly-AMD-format scripts (such as grunt and mocha). More on that is in this requirejs issue.
  • Does not clobber external libraries (symlinks too)
    • AMD-style path resolution only happens when require is called from your project
    • define (AMD module support) is only added when require is called to your project (any file calls `require("/file/inside/your/project.js"))
