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 🙏

psi Build Status NPM psi package

PageSpeed Insights with reporting

Run mobile and desktop performance tests for your deployed site using Google PageSpeed Insights v5 with tidy reporting for your build process.

Install

$ npm install psi

Usage

const psi = require('psi');

(async () => {
  // Get the PageSpeed Insights report
  const { data } = await psi('https://theverge.com');
  console.log('Speed score:', data.lighthouseResult.categories.performance.score);

  // Output a formatted report to the terminal
  await psi.output('https://theverge.com');
  console.log('Done');

  // Supply options to PSI and get back speed
  const data2 = await psi('https://theverge.com', {
    nokey: 'true',
    strategy: 'desktop'
  });
  console.log('Speed score:', data2.data.lighthouseResult.categories.performance.score);
})();

As of PSI 2.x, we expose both the PageSpeed Insights speed and usability scores. The latter is based on usability rules that score a page based on factors like the presence of a sensible mobile viewport.

Returns a promise for the response data from Google PageSpeed Insights.

Common Use cases

A sample Gulp project using PSI is available.

If you use Grunt, grunt-pagespeed is a task by James Cryer that uses PSI under the hood.

For testing local projects, we recommend using psi-ngrok or ngrok.

Filmstrips are returned by the v5 API as data uri's but the psi tool does not expose them on the cli. If you want to get filmstrips (or any audit details) you can require psi and get them from the audits object:

const psi = require('psi');

(async () => {
  // Get the PageSpeed Insights report
  const {data} = await psi('https://theverge.com');
  console.log(data.lighthouseResult.audits['screenshot-thumbnails'].details.items);
})();
