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 🙏

PulX

PulX NodeJs Package Manager with ability pull module from url.

Installation

npm i -g pulx

Usage

Install Non NPM package from URL

Lets say you have a javascript file named index.js which looks something like this

// index.js

function add(a, b){
    return a + b;
}

module.exports = add;

Now You want to use it in another package, what you usually do is that you ship this module to npm then use npm install to other side. But with PulX you dont need to do that. You can Do Something Like this...

  • Create pulx.json file in the directory where index.js exists
  • Write this:
// pulx.json
{
    "name": "add",
    "include": [
        "./index.js"
    ]
}
  • Then Host the directory.

  • Now to use the add module, you will have to install it using pulx install command in the project.

pulx install <url-to-pulx.json-file>
  • Now the module will be installed in node_modules/add

  • So you can use it by using require("add")

Easy and Simple Right?

Install NPM Package

Lets say your custom add module wants to use NPM module. PulX has a solution to that also. Follow this steps...

  • Install the NPM Package
pulx install @helper-modules/random
  • Use the NPM Package
// index.js
const random = require("@helper-modules/random");
function add(a, b){
    return a + b + random.number(0, 10);
}

module.exports = add;

After that all steps are same.

Don't Worry about installation and stuff, PulX is made to handle that Again Easy and Simple Right?
