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 🙏

BugSplat

Crash and error reporting built for busy developers.

ℹ️ This implementation is for Node.js prior to 19.8. For 19.8 or newer, please use fs.openAsBlob.

node-streamable-file

This repo contains a convenience function for creating a File object that can be appended by FormData and uploaded via Fetch using a ReadableStream. Node.js has a maximum https://nodejs.org/api/buffer.html size of 2 GB. Uploading files that are larger than the maximum Buffer size will result in an ERR_FS_FILE_TOO_LARGE error. The implementation in this repo was inspired by this StackOverflow post.

⚙️ Installation

Install this package

npm i node-streamable-file

If you're using Node.js prior to 18.13, you'll also need to install a polyfill for File.

npm i @web-std/file

🧑‍💻 Usage

Import createStreamableFile from node-streamable-file and open from node:fs/promises.

import { createStreamableFile } from 'node-streamable-file';
import { open } from 'node:fs/promises';

Call open with the path to your file to create a FileHandle and pass it to createStreamableFile. The result of createStreamableFile can be appended to a FormData object and uploaded via Fetch. Be sure to call handle.close when you're done with the file.

const path = 'path/to/file.txt';
const name = basename(path);
const handle = await open(path);
const file = await createStreamableFile(name, handle);

const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', file, name);

await fetch(url, {
  method: 'POST',
  body: formData
});

await handle.close();

💥 Known Issues

You might run into the following

Argument of type 'File' is not assignable to parameter of type 'Blob'

This issue is a result of a bug in TypeScript. You can read more about it here and here. You can silence this error by casting to unknown and then to Blob.

formData.append('file', file as unknown as Blob);

Alternatively, the warning can be fixed by setting "skipLibCheck": true, in your tsconfig.json file.
