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

repo-finder

Gets user and repo info for a specified GitHub user, using the GitHub API.

  • User info is gotten from https://api.github.com/users/USERNAME
  • User repos are gotten from https://api.github.com/users/USERNAME/repos

Installation

Using npm

$ npm install repo-finder

Using yarn

$ yarn add repo-finder

Using pnpm

$ pnpm add repo-finder

Using bun

$ bun i repo-finder

Usage

Once the package is installed, you can import it in your code using both require or import depending on whether you use CommonJS or ESModules.

import { getUserData, getUserRepos } from "repo-finder";

const { getUserData, getUserRepos } = require("repo-finder");

Both functions return a promise containing the raw JSON data from the GitHub API. You can then format that data however you like.

Example

const { getUserRepos } = require("repo-finder");

const data = getUserRepos(username);

data.then((repos) => {
  console.log("Total repos: " + repos.length);

  repos.forEach((repo) => {
    console.log(repo.name);
  });
});

Note: getUserRepos and getUserData implement async/await which is part of ES2017 and is not supported by some older browsers.
