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 🙏

rocksdb-lite

A Low-level Node.js RocksDB Lite binding for mobile platforms

level badge npm Node version Travis AppVeyor dependencies npm downloads

rocksdb is based on the LevelDown code, which was extracted from LevelUP and now serves as a stand-alone binding for LevelDB. The native code in rocksdb is based on Facebooks fork of LevelDB.

It is strongly recommended that you use LevelUP in preference to rocksdb unless you have measurable performance reasons to do so. LevelUP is optimised for usability and safety. Although we are working to improve the safety of the rocksdb interface it is still easy to crash your Node process if you don't do things in just the right way.

Tested & supported platforms

  • Linux (including ARM platforms such as Raspberry Pi and Kindle!)
  • Mac OS
  • Solaris (SmartOS & Nodejitsu)
  • FreeBSD
  • Windows
    • See installation instructions for node-gyp dependencies here, you'll need these (free) components from Microsoft to compile and run any native Node add-on in Windows.

API

rocksdb implements the same API of LevelDown.

Getting support

There are multiple ways you can find help in using LevelDB in Node.js:

  • IRC: you'll find an active group of LevelUP users in the ##leveldb channel on Freenode, including most of the contributors to this project.
  • Mailing list: there is an active Node.js LevelDB Google Group.
  • GitHub: you're welcome to open an issue here on this GitHub repository if you have a question.

Contributing

rocksdb is an OPEN Open Source Project. This means that:

Individuals making significant and valuable contributions are given commit-access to the project to contribute as they see fit. This project is more like an open wiki than a standard guarded open source project.

See the contribution guide for more details.

Windows

A large portion of the Windows support comes from code by Krzysztof Kowalczyk @kjk, see his Windows LevelDB port here. If you're using LevelUP on Windows, you should give him your thanks!

Prebuilt binaries

rocksdb uses prebuild and prebuild-install for handling prebuilt binaries. See this list of supported prebuilt platform binaries. When installing rocksdb prebuild-install will install prebuilt binaries from GitHub if they exist and fallback to a compile step if they don't.

If you are working on rocksdb and want to re-compile the C++ code it's enough to do npm install.

If you don't want to use the prebuild for the platform you are installing on, specify the --build-from-source flag when you install.
