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

purescript-dependency-helper

Latest version

A tool to perform reverse lookups of purescript dependencies.

Installation

npm install -g purescript-dependency-helper

This will install a globally-runnable command called psc-dependencies.

Usage

To find the dependants of a project:

psc-dependencies --lookup purescript-free

The returned list is a topologically sorted list of all dependants, including transitive dependants (suffixed with an * in the result), meaning if you are using this tool to find projects that need their versions bumping, you can safely run through this list from top to bottom.

Please note that running psc-dependencies will create a .psc-dependencies-cache subdirectory within the current directory to cache various metadata files.

The first time a psc-dependencies command is run the cache will be created, subsequent runs will only refer to the cache. To clear the cache either delete the .psc-dependencies-cache directory, or run psc-dependencies --clean.

Ignore transitive dependants

To only show direct dependants the --direct flag can be used.

Filter owners

If you're only interested in finding the dependants owned by a particular owner (or list of owners) the --filter-owners flag enables this. For example:

psc-dependencies --lookup purescript-free --filter-owners ethul

Or for a list of owners, use a comma-separated list:

psc-dependencies --lookup purescript-free --filter-owners ethul,slamdata

Markdown output

The --markdown flag will print the output as a GitHub flavoured markdown check list, with links to each of the project repositories.
