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 🙏

Readme

puppeteer-express

puppeteer-express is library created to crawl html from websites. Depending on the settings you will be able to ajust the library to how much CPU and memory you have on the server. The library can handle infinit calls, it will create a que and execute those in order. The library is also able to cache and refresh those calls depending on the settings.

Getting started

npm install puppeteer-express

Basic

import * as pExpress from 'puppeteer-express'
// this will generate 2*10 calls at the sametimes
const browser = new pExpress.Browser({ maxPages:10, maxBrowsers: 2}); 
browser.start();
var html = await browser.addAsync("https://www.xxx.com");
// OR
browser.addSync("https://www.xxx.com", (html) => console.log(html));

Advanced setting + Caching

class DataSave {
    constructor() {
        this.data = new Map();
    }

    async saveData(data) {
        this.data.set(data.url, data);
    }

    async delete(url) {
        this.data.delete(url);
    }

    async onFreeResources(clearAll) {
        // Free your resources here
    }

    async getData(url) {
        return this.data.get(url)
    }
}


import * as pExpress from 'puppeteer-express'
import { PendingXHR } from 'pending-xhr-puppeteer'
const browser = new pExpress.Browser(
    {
        dataSave: new DataSave(),
        puppeteerOptions: { headless: false }, // option for puppeteer
        maxPages: 10,
        maxBrowsers: 2,
        pageTimeout: 8000,
        freeResourcesTimer: 3600000, // this will calls onFreeResources every 5 hours
        pageOptions: { waitUntil: 'networkidle2' },// option for puppeteer.page
        pageHandler: async (page, url) => {
            const u = URL.parse(url, true);
            var cssSelector = u.query["cssSelector"];
            var ajaxWait = u.query["ajax"];

            if (cssSelector && cssSelector.length > 1) {
                console.log("selector Found", cssSelector)
                // await for css class
                await page.waitForSelector(cssSelector);
            }

            if (ajaxWait && ajaxWait.length > 0) {
                // wait for all ajax calls
                // note you need to install pending-xhr-puppeteer for this to work
                const pendingXHR = new PendingXHR(page);
                await pendingXHR.waitForAllXhrFinished();
            }

        }
    });

browser.start();

var html = await browser.addAsync("https://www.xxx.com");
// OR
browser.addSync("https://www.xxx.com", (html) => console.log(html));
