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 🙏

Observed-Remove Map replicated data type.

Readme

observed-remove-map

An "Observed-Remove Map" or "OR-Map", is a Map data type that can be modified concurrently and will eventually reach the same state everywhere (it is "eventually consistent").

Built with observed-remove-set.

example

var map1 = new OrMap('bob')
var map2 = new OrMap('alice')

// let's provide a "delay" function to simulate concurrency on a network
function delay (cb) {
  setTimeout(cb, 3000) // 3 seconds of delay!
}

// let's "connect" our two maps
map1.on('op', op => delay(() => map2.receive(op)))
map2.on('op', op => delay(() => map1.receive(op)))

// both Bob and Alice simulatenously set "a" to different values
map1.set('a', 0) // {a:0}
map2.set('a', 1) // {a:1}

In a normal Map type, this would cause a conflict! However, these are Or-Maps and will handle conflicts for us. Once all operations have been delivered, both Bob and Alice are guaranteed to have the same data.

// after all operations have been received...
map1.get('a') // 0
map2.get('a') // 0

install

npm install observed-remove-map
<script src="dist/or-map.js"></script>

api

orMap = new OrMap(uuid, [opts])

Create a new OR-Map.

Required uuid is some universally unique identifer for this map.

Optional opts object is an object of the form:

{
  serialize: (Object) => {},              // custom object serializer
  parse: (String) => {},                  // custom object deserializer
  compareKeys: (Object, Object) => bool,  // custom key comparator (returns true if objects are equal)
  compareValues(Object, Object) => bool   // custom value comparator
}

orMap.add(key)

Add a key to the map with a value of null.

element is any serializable Javascript object. Changes to within this object will NOT be replicated.

orMap.delete(key)

Remove a key and it's value from the map.

orMap.set(key, value)

Sets the value at key. If key does not exist, it will be added first.

orMap.has(key)

Returns true if the map contains the given key.

orMap.get(key)

Returns the value associated with the given key.

orMap.keys()

Returns an array with all keys.

orMap.values()

Returns an array with all values.

orMap.receive(op)

Receive an operation from a remote map. Must be called exactly once per remote operation.

orMap.getState()

Get the complete state of the system. Useful for complete replication to other sites. Not consistency safe without a 2-step sync.

orMap.setState(sate)

Set the complete state of the system (use the state object from getState). Useful for complete replication to other sites. Not consistency safe without a 2-step sync.

orMap.on('op', function (op) {})

Fires when an operation needs to be sent to connected Maps. Operations can be delivered in any order and more-than-once, but must be delivered at-least-once. There may be multiple operation events for each call to a method.

op is the operation object that needs to be passed into otherOrMap.receive(op) for all other replicas.

orMap.on('add', function (key) {})

Fires when a new key is added to the map by a remote operation. (will not fire when orMap.add() is called locally.)

orMap.on('delete', function (key) {})

Fires when a key is removed from the map by a remote operation. (will not fire when orMap.delete() is called locally.)

orMap.on('set', function (key, value) {})

Fires when the value associated with a key is changed by a remote operation. (will not fire when orMap.set() is called locally.)
