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 🙏

Utitlity Specific Documentation

postman-collection-url-updater

postman-collection-url-updater is a command line utility project that can update urls across multiple postman requests in your postman collection. It allows to update postman request urls in bulk inside the postman collection

for instance, let say your Postman request URLs where in the form https://localhost:23456/api/v1/{{path}} and you wanted modify all the requests inside your postman collection as {{baseURL}}/{{path}} you can do it as:

npx postman-collection-url-updater -c "collection.json" -r "https://localhost:23456/api/v1/{{path}}" -w "{{baseURL}}/{{path}}" -s "new_collection.json"

in case of PATH and Query variables:

npx postman-collection-url-updater -c "collection.json" -r "https://{{test}}/:test/test" -w "https://localhost/newpath/:test/:test2""

retains the path variable :test and creates new path variable :test2

npx postman-collection-url-updater -c "collection.json" -r "https://{{test}} -w "https://localhost/newpath"

makes the changes and if any other path variable is there then it will be retained

npx postman-collection-url-updater -c "collection.json" -r "https://{{test}}/:test/test" -w "https://localhost/newpath""

makes the changes and removes :test if it doesn't exists in remaining part and retains remaining Path variables

eg , output would be https://localhost/newpath/:test/new , if path variable exists else https://localhost/newpath/new

in case of REGEx match:

Pass the regex as -r parameter and replace it with -w parameter. -w parameter will have the capture group available:

For example:

npx postman-collection-url-updater -c "collection.json" -r "(.*)\?(.*)" -w "$1?newquery=newvalue&$2" -p 

or

npx postman-collection-url-updater -c "collection.json" -r "(.*)\?(.*)" -w "$1?newquery=newvalue&$2" -p true

This will replace all urls having query parameter to the form <path>?newquery=newvalue&<remaining query>

If you want to add query parameter to all URLs irrespective of whether the query parameter exists or not, then use :

npx postman-collection-url-updater -c "collection.json" -r "^(.*?)(?:\?(.*))?$" -w "$1?newquery=newvalue&$2" -p true

Interactive Option

You can also pass arguments interactively by passing i flag

npx postman-collection-url-updater -i

postman-collection-aggregator -d ./collectionFolder or

postman-collection-aggregator -l "./collectionFolder/collection1.json" "./collectionFolder/collection2.json" 

you can pass name of your new collection using -n

postman-collection-aggregator -d ./collectionFolder -n "new_collection"

see more arguments in the below sections
