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 🙏

Execute Applescript through Node via Promises

Readme

osascript-promise

stable

Execute Applescript from Node via Promises. A wrapper around node-osascript by @fweinb. Pairs well with tj/co.

var osascript = require('osascript-promise')

osascript('tell application "Google Chrome" to get URL of active tab of first window')
	.then(function (result) {
		console.log(result)
	})

Works using any-promise, so native promises, bluebird, rsvp, when, and q are all supported without any changes to your code.

Usage

NPM

This promisifies the execute method from node-osascript.

osascript(command[, variables])

Pass your Applescript in via the command variable. Multiline scripts work well using the ES6 template string syntax:

osascript(`
	tell application "Safari"
		activate
		open location "http://example.com"
	end tell
`).then(() => console.log('Success!'))

Applescript variables can be passed to the script as an object in the second argument:

osascript('display dialog message', { message: 'Hello from Node' })
	.then(() => console.log('Success!'))
