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 🙏

react-native-sound-recorder

No-hassle Sound Recorder for React Native.

There are existing libraries out in the wild

  • https://github.com/MisterAlex95/react-native-record-sound
  • https://github.com/jsierles/react-native-audio

Why reinvent the wheel?

At the time of writing, the above libaries are either inconsistent or incomplete.

For example, the same startRecording call returns a Promise on Android but null in iOS.

Or stopRecording doesn't give a promise/callback at all. So forcing user to do silly things like "wait for 1 second" in order to make sure file is well written to disk.

Getting started

$ npm install react-native-sound-recorder --save

or

$ yarn add react-native-sound-recorder

if RN >= 0.60.0

Autolink should work

if RN < 0.60.0

Mostly automatic installation

$ react-native link react-native-sound-recorder

Manual installation

iOS

  1. In XCode, in the project navigator, right click LibrariesAdd Files to [your project's name]
  2. Go to node_modulesreact-native-sound-recorder and add RNSoundRecorder.xcodeproj
  3. In XCode, in the project navigator, select your project. Add libRNSoundRecorder.a to your project's Build PhasesLink Binary With Libraries
  4. Run your project (Cmd+R)<

  • Add import com.kevinresol.react_native_sound_recorder.RNSoundRecorderPackage; to the imports at the top of the file
  • Add new RNSoundRecorderPackage() to the list returned by the getPackages() method
  1. Append the following lines to android/settings.gradle:
    include ':react-native-sound-recorder'
    project(':react-native-sound-recorder').projectDir = new File(rootProject.projectDir, 	'../node_modules/react-native-sound-recorder/android')
  2. Insert the following lines inside the dependencies block in android/app/build.gradle:
      compile project(':react-native-sound-recorder')

SoundRecorder.start(SoundRecorder.PATH_CACHE + '/test.mp4')
	.then(function() {
		console.log('started recording');
	});

SoundRecorder.stop()
	.then(function(result) {
		console.log('stopped recording, audio file saved at: ' + result.path);
	});
