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

This project is no longer maintained!

Please refer to this library to cast to your google homes instead:

https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-cast

node-red-contrib-google-home-notify

These nodes are based on a fork of the google-home-notifier-library: google-home-notifier Fork

What it does:

Send any string up to 200 Characters (API limitation) to your Google Home (or Chromecast) and it will happily respond. Great for telling us about finished Home Automation tasks.

How it works:

Text Notification

Hook up an Inject-Node to the Input channel and send a simple text phrase. This node will send the text to the google translation API which returns an MP3 file which then gets casted to your chosen Google device.

Play MP3

If the input text is an mp3 url start with http and end up with .mp3, Google device can directly play it. You can host some mp3 files on your own server. For example.

http://yourhost/xyz.mp3

To install:

Install node-red.

Install this package with "npm install node-red-contrib-google-home-notify --save" in ~./node-red or via the Palette Manager in node-red.

If everything was successfull you should see a new node in the output category in node-red after a restart.

You can adress your Google Home by specifying its IP address and choose a language (Default is English).
