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 🙏

Usage

Usage: retire [options]

Options:
  -V, --version            output the version number
  -v, --verbose            Show identified files (by default only vulnerable files are shown)
  -c, --nocache            Don't use local cache
  --jspath <path>          Folder to scan for javascript files (deprecated)
  --path <path>            Folder to scan for javascript files
  --jsrepo <path|url>      Local or internal version of repo. Can be multiple comma separated. Default: 'central')
  --cachedir <path>        Path to use for local cache instead of /tmp/.retire-cache
  --proxy <url>            Proxy url (http://some.host:8080)
  --outputformat <format>  Valid formats: text, json, jsonsimple, depcheck (experimental), cyclonedx and cyclonedxJSON
  --outputpath <path>      File to which output should be written
  --ignore <paths>         Comma delimited list of paths to ignore
  --ignorefile <path>      Custom ignore file, defaults to .retireignore / .retireignore.json
  --severity <level>       Specify the bug severity level from which the process fails. Allowed levels none, low, medium, high, critical.
                           Default: none
  --exitwith <code>        Custom exit code (default: 13) when vulnerabilities are found
  --colors                 Enable color output (console output only)
  --insecure               Enable fetching remote jsrepo/noderepo files from hosts using an insecure or self-signed SSL (TLS) certificate
  --ext <extensions>       Comma separated list of file extensions for JavaScript files. The default is "js"
  --cacert <path>          Use the specified certificate file to verify the peer used for fetching remote jsrepo/noderepo files
  --includeOsv             Include OSV advisories in the output
  --deep                   Deep scan (slower and experimental)
  -h, --help               display help for command

The depcheck output format mimics the output of OWASP Dependency Check, but lacks some information compared to OWASP Dependency Check, because that information is not in the repo. The cyclonedx output format is based on based on the https://github.com/CycloneDX spec.

.retireignore

@qs                                                             # ignore this module regardless of location
node_modules/connect/node_modules/body-parser/node_modules/qs   # ignore specific path

Due to a bug in ignore resolving, please upgrade to >= 1.1.3
