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

qamoos

qamoos is a multilingual index package for node.js.

qamoos is a small dictionnary to manage internationalization of an application. You can define indexes of messages in different languages and access to them with a code.

How does it work ?

You should define different messages inside a qamoos defined by its name. Data is stored in a global variable so you can define it once in the project and use it while needed.

**First define a qamoos ** (run this once in the project)

var Qamoos = require("qamoos")(req);

var myBook = Qamoos.define("myBook");

myBook.set('run', {"fr":"Serveur a l'ecoute du port " , en:"Server listening port " });
myBook.set('name', {"fr":"Nom de l'application" , en:"appName" });
myBook.set('def', {"fr":"defaut" , "en":"default"});

Now, somewhere in your project, when you need a translation:

var Qamoos = require("qamoos")(req);
var myBook = Qamoos.define("myBook");

console.log(myBook.get('run'),81);
Qamoos.lang("fr"); // define french as default language (english is the default value)
console.log(myBook.get('run'),81);

Data persistence

  • A 'qamoos' dictionnary is stored in a server variable (global object) so that it can be accessible from any module.
  • Language information is stored as a session variable (cookie), so it could be changed for each session. So, you should use "express-session" middleware to store session information in coockies:
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var expressSession = require('express-session');

app.use( expressSession({secret:'mySecretKey', cookie: { maxAge: 60000 }, resave:false, saveUninitialized:true}) );

You can create a qamoos for each module or application. The data is grouped as ONE global object in the server and shared by users and sessions.

Error messages

You can attribute a code to your messages and get the translation in the form of an error object:

var Qamoos = require("qamoos")(req);
var myBook = Qamoos.define("myBook");

myBook.set('badLogin', {fr:"Login incorrect", en:"Bad login"},-101);
myBook.set('badPassword', {fr:"Mot de passe incorrect", en:"Bad password"},-102);


console.log(myBook.getErr('badLogin'),81);

Will give you:

{ err:-101, msg:'Bad login'}
