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

pg-wiz

Simple SQL helper to use with pg. Not an ORM.

You still write SQL because it's good to learn and know. You can't paper over something so important.

This package has two parts to it.

Firstly, it helps you write you SQL in a more concise manor as well as keeping everything consistent, including column names. It also helps you keep track (and have smaller code) and use things like the tablename, the pk, and joins in your SQL so you don't have to keep typing things out.

The second part of this package is to help manipulate the resultant data received from the database. As you'll notice we prefix all column names from each table with the ${prefix}__ so that you know which table each came from, but then we also provide helpers to manipulate these columns into a hierarchical structure so it's easier for your code to work with (as well as removing the prefix).

(Side note: I've seen too much code over the years where they are selecting different columns with the same name and it's hard to know what that particular programming language or library will return, whether it's the first or last mention of the same column name.)

  1. define and create your SQL
  2. manipulate the returns rows into something better

Synopsis

import * as pgWiz from 'pg-wiz'

const acc = new pgWiz.Table('account', 'acc')
acc.setCols('id', 'email', 'username')

console.log(acc.selCols())
// -> acc.id AS acc__id, acc.email AS acc__email, acc.username AS acc__username
