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 🙏

OBS YouTube Comment

Display YouTube Comments in your OBS stream.

Uses the OBS WebSocket plugin and Tampermonkey browser plugin.

Note: doesn't support emojis yet (see To Do at the bottom).

To Use

OBS Setup

  • Add three sources to your scene, with the following names:

    • YTCommentText of type "Text (FreeType 2)" for the comment text.
    • YTCommentAuthor of type "Text (FreeType 2)" for the comment author.
    • YTCommentPhoto of type "Browser" for the comment author photo.
  • Position and compose them where you want them. You probably want to enable word-wrapping, and set a custom width.

Browser Setup

  • Install the Tampermonkey plugin to your browser.
  • Open the Tampermonkey settings in your browser.
  • Click on "Utilities".
  • Paste the following URL into the "Install from URL" text box:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jwulf/obs-youtube-comment/main/tampermonkey.js
  • Click "Install".
  • Reload the Youtube live chat popup in your browser.

You should now see a userscript loaded on the Tampermonkey plugin.

  • Click the Tampermonkey icon in the browser plugins section:

  • Click on "Configuration"

  • Enter the password you set for the OBS Web Socket Server plugin.

  • Click "Save"

  • Reload the page to establish the connection.

  • When you mouse over a comment, you will see the background turn blue. Click on the comment to send it to your OBS Stream.

To Do

Deal with emojis. Some leads:

- [Reddit: Using Emojis w/ OBS Text(FreeType 2)](https://www.reddit.com/r/obs/comments/7vn04l/using_emojis_w_obs_textfreetype_2/) and the [OBS GitHub issue](https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/issues/3127).
- The [text-pango](https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/text-pango-multi-language-and-emoji.656/) plugin. (Doesn't do word wrap).

A heavier-weight solution would be to run a local process (or find or write a remote service) that renders the comment into a graphic, and then insert the composed graphic as a browser element source. That's a lot more work than the current solution, which is pretty light-weight.
