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 🙏

#Freeboard Dashboard for Node-RED

#Installation Just install this plugin to your Node Red installation by using npm: "npm install node-red-contrib-freeboard" in your Node Red root directory

#Usage Drag the freeboard node into your workspace and connect it appropriatley with some JSON emitting node. Node RED Flow

[{"id":"176e3fcd.e891c","type":"freeboard","name":"[Node-RED] Freeboard","x":715,"y":233,"z":"681a559a.97e5ac","wires":[]},{"id":"41e8ab5f.be1754","type":"inject","name":"Send Random Value","topic":"","payload":"","payloadType":"date","repeat":"","crontab":"","once":false,"x":268,"y":233,"z":"681a559a.97e5ac","wires":[["c822ddf4.37dd2"]]},{"id":"c822ddf4.37dd2","type":"function","name":"","func":"msg.payload={value:Math.floor(Math.random()*100)};\nreturn msg;","outputs":1,"x":502,"y":233,"z":"681a559a.97e5ac","wires":[["176e3fcd.e891c"]]}]

Then go to your freeboard dashboard (is bundled with this node - no need to set up something; should run under /freeboard) and add the freeboard node from Node-RED as Datasource Click "ADD" below "DATASOURCE" Add Datasource

Choose the Type that has the Name of your Node-RED node (in this case "[Node-RED] Freeboard") and give it a name that you want it to be available under in Freeboard. Save Datasource

Now you can add a Widget using the Datasource: Click on "ADD PANE" on the top left and in the new created pane on the "+" sign in the title Create Widget Choose the appropriate datasource. If Freeboard already received data from your node it will also offer you available properties - so best would be to hit the inject node within Node-RED at least once.

Thats it, here is your widget:

Widget

Don't forget to save your dashboard by hitting "SAVE FREEBOARD" (then "[MINIFIED]") on the top left.
