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

panthera-view-engine

npm Build Status Coverage Dependency Status Supported Node.js version MIT licensed

Handlebars.js-based view engine middleware for Koa applications.

Intended for use with any kind of database, provided the database tables or collections are organized compatibly and the data is retrieved in a way the view engine is capable of consuming. Introduces the concept of themes, or numerically-identified sets of templates that include any number of layouts, any number of views, and any number of partials.

See test/integration/setup.sql for a compatible MySQL table structure.

Installation

npm install panthera-view-engine

Usage

const koa = require('koa');
const viewEngine = require('panthera-view-engine');

let app = koa();
// app.context.models = ...;
app.use(viewEngine(app));

app.use(function* () {
  yield* this.render('user', {
    name: 'Username',
    age:  'Old enough!'
  });
});

app.listen(3000);

models

The models must be attached to the Koa application context. app.context.models is expected to be an object with properties named layouts, partials, and views. Each of these is expected to implement a method that retrieves the necessary data and returns a Promise object. The resolution values of the returned Promises must be compatible with results returned from mysql queries.

The implementation that panthera-view-engine expects is the following.

let models = {


  layouts: {


    /**
     * @param  {String}  namespace
     * @param  {Number}  themeId
     * @param  {String}  layoutName
     * @param  {Number}  lastUpdated
     * @return {Promise}
     */
    getOne: function(namespace, themeId, layoutName, lastUpdated) {
      /*
      return Promise.resolve([
        [ { contents: '' } ]
      ]);
      */
    }
  },


  partials: {


    /**
     * @param  {String}  namespace
     * @param  {Number}  themeId
     * @param  {Number}  lastUpdated
     * @return {Promise}
     */
    getAll: function(namespace, themeId, lastUpdated) {
      /*
      return Promise.resolve([
        [ { name: '', contents: '' }, { name: '', contents: '' } ]
      ]);
      */
    }
  },


  views: {


    /**
     * @param  {String}  namespace
     * @param  {Number}  themeId
     * @param  {String}  viewName
     * @param  {Number}  lastUpdated
     * @return {Promise}
     */
    getOne: function(namespace, themeId, viewName, lastUpdated) {
      /*
      return Promise.resolve([
        [ { contents: '' } ]
      ]);
      */
    }
  }
};

Rendering options

By default, panthera-view-engine renders templates from themes for the namespace __default, using the theme with the id 1, falling back on the layout named main.

These options may be changed by passing in an options argument with any of the appropriate properties as a third argument:

app.use(function* () {
  let options = {
    namespace: 'anotherNamespace',
    themeId:   5,
    layout:    'anotherLayout'
  };

  // This will render 'view' with the layout 'anotherLayout' belonging to theme
  // `5`, in the namespace `anotherNamespace`.
  yield* this.render('view', {
    context: 'goes here'
  }, options);
});
