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 🙏

Table of contents

Overview

Poolifier contains web worker pool implementation, you don't have to deal with web worker API complexity.
The first implementation is a fixed worker pool, with a defined number of workers that are started at creation time and will be reused.
The second implementation is a dynamic worker pool, with a number of worker started at creation time (these workers will be always active and reused) and other workers created when the load will increase (with an upper limit, these workers will be reused when active), the newly created workers will be stopped after a configurable period of inactivity.
You have to implement your worker by extending the ThreadWorker class.

Usage

Deno

deno add @poolifier/poolifier-web-worker

See Deno examples for more details:

Bun

npmjs

bun add poolifier-web-worker

JSR

bunx jsr add @poolifier/poolifier-web-worker

See Bun examples for more details:

Browser

<script type="module">import { ThreadWorker } from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/browser/mod.js'</script>
<script type="module">
import {
  availableParallelism,
  DynamicThreadPool,
  FixedThreadPool,
  PoolEvents,
} from 'https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/browser/mod.js'
</script>

Example code

You can implement a poolifier web worker in a simple way by extending the class ThreadWorker:

// adapt import to the targeted JS runtime
import { ThreadWorker } from '@poolifier/poolifier-web-worker'

function yourFunction(data) {
  // this will be executed in the worker thread,
  // the data will be received by using the execute method
  return { ok: 1 }
}

export default new ThreadWorker(yourFunction, {
  maxInactiveTime: 60000,
})

Instantiate your pool based on your needs :

// adapt import to the targeted JS runtime
import {
  availableParallelism,
  DynamicThreadPool,
  FixedThreadPool,
  PoolEvents,
} from '@poolifier/poolifier-web-worker'

// a fixed web worker pool
const pool = new FixedThreadPool(
  availableParallelism(),
  new URL('./yourWorker.js', import.meta.url),
  {
    errorEventHandler: (e) => {
      console.error(e)
    },
  },
)

pool.eventTarget?.addEventListener(
  PoolEvents.ready,
  () => console.info('Pool is ready'),
)
pool.eventTarget?.addEventListener(
  PoolEvents.busy,
  () => console.info('Pool is busy'),
)

// or a dynamic web worker pool
const pool = new DynamicThreadPool(
  Math.floor(availableParallelism() / 2),
  availableParallelism(),
  new URL('./yourWorker.js', import.meta.url),
  {
    errorEventHandler: (e) => {
      console.error(e)
    },
  },
)

pool.eventTarget?.addEventListener(
  PoolEvents.full,
  () => console.info('Pool is full'),
)
pool.eventTarget?.addEventListener(
  PoolEvents.ready,
  () => console.info('Pool is ready'),
)
pool.eventTarget?.addEventListener(
  PoolEvents.busy,
  () => console.info('Pool is busy'),
)

// the execute method signature is the same for both implementations,
// so you can easily switch from one to another
try {
  const res = await pool.execute()
  console.info(res)
} catch (err) {
  console.error(err)
}

Remember that workers can only send and receive structured-cloneable data.
