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 🙏

This small, convenient module provides simple utility functions to generate random numbers, strings, and user-agent strings. It is versatile in that it allows you to generate random values with various constraints and formats, making it a valuable tool for testing, data generation, and simulation.

Features

The module includes the following functions:

randomNumber(minNum, maxNum, decimalNum)

Generates random numbers in several ways:

  • Single argument: Generates a random number with the specified number of digits.
  • Two arguments: Generates a randomly rounded integer between and inclusive of minNum and maxNum
  • Three arguments: Generates a random number between minNum and maxNum (inclusive) with decimalNum decimal places. The return value is a string to retain the specified number of decimal places.
randomString(length, includeNumbers)

Generates a random alphanumeric string.

  • length: The number of characters the random string should contain.
  • includeNumbers: Boolean indicating whether or not the string should include numeric characters.
randomUserAgent(browserIdentifier)

Generates a random user-agent string for browsers:

  • browserIdentifier (optional): Specify a browser ('Chrome', 'Firefox', 'Safari', 'Edge') to generate a corresponding user-agent string. If not provided, a random browser's user-agent string will be generated.

Installation

Using npm:

npm i random-syskey

In Node.JS:

const rs = require('random-syskey');

Usage

Here are some examples of how you can use the module:

Generate a Random Number

// Generate a random number with 5 digits
console.log(rs.randomNumber(5));

// Generate a random integer between 10 and 20
console.log(rs.randomNumber(10, 20));

// Generate a random number between 1 and 10 with 2 decimal places
console.log(rs.randomNumber(1, 10, 2));

Generate a Random String

// Generate a 10-character long random string
console.log(rs.randomString(10, false));

// Generate a 15-character long random string that includes numbers
console.log(rs.randomString(15, true));

Generate a Random User-Agent String

// Generate a random user-agent string of any supported browser
console.log(rs.randomUserAgent());

// Generate a random user-agent string for Firefox
console.log(rs.randomUserAgent('Chrome'));
