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 🙏

Promis: a small embeddable Promise polyfill

This is a tiny (0.8KB gzipped, 1.9KB minified) Promise implementation meant for embedding in other projects and use as a standalone polyfill. It supports the full Promise API specification and passes the official Promises/A+ test suite.

API

The constructor is called with a single function argument.

var promise = new Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
  resolve('hello');
});

Instances of a Promise have two methods available: then and catch. The then method is used to add callbacks for when the promise is resolved or rejected.

promise.then(function (x) {
  console.log('value is', x);
}, function (r) {
  console.log('reason is', r);
});

The catch method is used the catch rejected promises in a more convenient way.

promise.catch(function (r) {
  console.log('reason is', r);
});

Both methods return a new Promise that can be used for chaining.

The Promise class also has four class methods: resolve, reject, race and all. The resolve and reject methods are a convenient way of creating already settled promises:

var resolved = Promise.resolve('hello');
var rejected = Promise.reject('bye');

The race method can be used to "race" two or more promises against each other. The returned promises is settled with the result of the first promise that settles.

// first will be resolved with 'hello'
var first = Promise.race([new Promise(function (resolve) {
  setTimeout(function () {
    resolve('world');
  }, 1000);
}), Promise.resolve('hello')]);

The all method waits for all promises given to it to resolve and then resolves the promise with the result of all of them.

// all is settles with ['hello', 'world']
var all = Promise.all([Promise.resolve('hello'), Promise.resolve('world')]);

You can find more information about Promises and the API in the official Promise specification and on MDN.

Tests

Use the grunt test task to run all the tests. You can optionally pass the --compiled flag to test the compiled and minified JavaScript file.

Embedding

This implementation uses Closure Compiler's advanced optimization mode to make the resulting file size as small as possible. If you want to embed this library into your project you can also benefit from Closure Compiler's dead code elimination to remove methods that you are not using. If you want to use Promis this way, you'll need to copy src/promise.js into your project and goog.require the implementation. Unlike the standalone file, the src/promise.js file by itself does not export anything to the global namespace. Instead you should require the lang.Promise namespace to instantiate a Promise.

goog.require('lang.Promise');

...

var promise = new lang.Promise(function (resolve, reject) {
  resolve('hello');
});
