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 🙏

Wrap promise function into cancelable promise function

Sometimes you may need to create cancelable promise for situation like to avoid isMounted antipattern in React. pcancel provides simple utility for creating cancelable promises. Highly inspired from this comment.

Install

$ npm install --save pcancel

Usage

import pcancel from 'pcancel';

const delayC = pcancel(delay);
const p = delayC(4000)
  .promise
  .then(() => console.log('Yey!'))
  .catch((err) => console.error(err));

p.cancel(); // Error: Promise has canceled

function delay(time) {
  return new Promise((resolve) => setTimeout(() => resolve(), time));
}

API

pcancel(fn[, options])

  • fn Function - Promise-returning function that will be cancelable.
  • options Object (optional)
    • noReject Boolean - Whether to reject when canceling. If this option is true, the promise will be resolved with the value passed through to cancel() method on the promise.

Returns a wrapped function that returns object includes Promise instance and cancel() function.

You can also specify error or value through cancel() method, the specified value will be returned instead of value of the promise:

p.cancel(new Error('Foo')); // Error: Foo

Note: cancel() rejects the promise immediately when it called.
