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 🙏

RiTa: tools for computational writing

RiTa is implemented in JavaScript and Java, with a common API for both, and is free/libre/open-source.

Features in v3.0

  • Smart lexicon search for words matching part-of-speech, syllable, stress and rhyme patterns
  • Fast, heuristic algorithms for inflection, conjugation, stemming, tokenization, and more
  • Letter-to-sound engine for feature analysis of arbitrary words (with/without lexicon)
  • Integration of the RiScript scripting language, designed for writers, now built with the blazing fast Chevrotain parser
  • New options for generation via grammars and Markov chains
  • Published in ESM, CommonJS and as an IIFE

Note: version 3.0 contains breaking changes -- please check the release notes

Installation

  • For esm: import { RiTa } from "https://esm.sh/rita";
  • For node: $ npm install rita
    let { RiTa } = require('rita');
  • For browsers: <script src="https://unpkg.com/rita"></script>
  • For p5.js: <script src="https://unpkg.com/rita"></script>
  • For developers

Example

import { RiTa } from "https://esm.sh/rita";

// to analyze a sentence
let data = RiTa.analyze("The elephant took a bite!");
console.log(data);

// to load a grammar
let grammar = RiTa.grammar(rulesObjectOrJSON);
console.log(grammar.expand());

API

RiScript

RiScript (the minor language that powers RiTa) was designed specifically for writers working with code. RiScript primitives (choices, symbols, gates, transforms, etc) can be used as part of any RiTa grammar or executed directly using RiTa.evaluate. For more info, see this interactive notebook on observable.

 

Developing

To install/build the library and run tests (with npm/mocha and node v14.x):


$ git clone https://github.com/dhowe/ritajs.git
$ cd ritajs 
$ npm install
$ npm run build 
$ npm test

If all goes well, you should see a list of successful tests and find the library built in 'dist'

Please make contributions via fork-and-pull - thanks!


 

Visual Studio Code

Once you have things running with npm/mocha/tsup, you might also try VSCode.

Some of the following extensions may also be useful:

  • hbenl.vscode-mocha-test-adapter
  • hbenl.vscode-test-explorer
  • ms-vscode.test-adapter-converter

Here you can see the tests in the VSCode Testing view

 

About

 

Quick Start

A simple browser sketch

Create a new file on your desktop called 'test.html' with the following lines, save and drag it into a browser:

<html>
  <script src="https://unpkg.com/rita"></script>
  <script>
    window.onload = function() {
      let words = RiTa.tokenize("The elephant took a bite!");
      document.getElementById("content").innerHTML = words;
    };
  </script>
  <div id="content" width=200 height=200></div>
<html>

An ESM browser sketch

Create a new file on your desktop called 'test.html' with the following lines, save and drag it into a browser:

<html>
<body>
  <div id="content" width=200 height=200></div>
  <script type="module">
    import { RiTa } from "https://esm.sh/rita";
    let words = RiTa.tokenize("The elephant took a bite!");
    document.getElementById("content").innerHTML = words;
  </script>
</body>
<html>

With p5.js

Create a new file on your desktop called 'test.html' with the following lines, save and drag it into a browser:

<html>
  <script src="https://unpkg.com/p5"></script>
  <script src="https://unpkg.com/rita"></script>
  <script>
  function setup() {

    createCanvas(200,200);
    background(245);
    textAlign(CENTER);
    textSize(20);

    let words = RiTa.tokenize("The elephant took a bite!")
    for (let i=0; i < words.length; i++) {
        text(words[i], 100, 50 + i*20);
    }
  }
  </script>
</html>

If you already have a sketch, simply add <script src="https://unpkg.com/rita"></script> to your index.html to include RiTa.

With node.js and npm

To install: $ npm install rita

let RiTa = require('rita');
let data = RiTa.analyze("The elephant took a bite!");
console.log(data);
