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

ksuid

A Node.js implementation of Segment's KSUID library.

You may also be interested in ksuid-cli.

Installation

$ npm install ksuid

Usage

Require the module:

const KSUID = require('ksuid')

Creation

You can create a new instance synchronously:

const ksuidFromSync = KSUID.randomSync()

Or asynchronously:

const ksuidFromAsync = await KSUID.random()

You can also specify a specific time, either in milliseconds or as a Date object:

const ksuidFromDate = KSUID.randomSync(new Date("2014-05-25T16:53:20Z"))
const ksuidFromMillisecondsAsync = await KSUID.random(1401036800000)

Or you can compose it using a timestamp and a 16-byte payload:

const crypto = require('crypto')
const yesterdayInMs = Date.now() - 86400 * 1000
const payload = crypto.randomBytes(16)
const yesterdayKSUID = KSUID.fromParts(yesterdayInMs, payload)

You can parse a valid string-encoded KSUID:

const maxKsuid = KSUID.parse('aWgEPTl1tmebfsQzFP4bxwgy80V')

Finally, you can create a KSUID from a 20-byte buffer:

const fromBuffer = new KSUID(buffer)

Properties

Once the KSUID has been created, use it:

ksuidFromSync.string // The KSUID encoded as a fixed-length string
ksuidFromSync.raw // The KSUID as a 20-byte buffer
ksuidFromSync.date // The timestamp portion of the KSUID, as a `Date` object
ksuidFromSync.timestamp // The raw timestamp portion of the KSUID, as a number
ksuidFromSync.payload // A Buffer containing the 16-byte payload of the KSUID (typically a random value)

Comparisons

You can compare KSUIDs:

todayKSUID.compare(yesterdayKSUID) // 1
todayKSUID.compare(todayKSUID) // 0
yesterdayKSUID.compare(todayKSUID) // -1

And check for equality:

todayKSUID.equals(todayKSUID) // true
todayKSUID.equals(yesterdayKSUID) // false

Validation

You can check whether a particular buffer is a valid KSUID:

KSUID.isValid(buffer) // Boolean
