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

rwebsocket Build Status

Simple auto-reconnect WebSocket adapter

Install

npm i rwebsocket -S

or

yarn add rwebsocket

Usage

const RWebSocket = require('rwebsocket');

const client = new RWebSocket('ws://echo.websocket.org');

client.onopen = function () {
	// as soon as we are connected
	// just send an Hello World! to the server
	client.send('Hello World!');
};

client.onmessage = function (event) {
	// because the server is echo.websocket.org we should receive
	// "Hello World!" right after connection
	console.log('> ', event.data);
};

// connect
client.connect();

If ws://echo.websocket.org is unreachable, RWebSocket will try to reconnect once every 3 seconds (default)

API

The only modifications to the API are:

  • the ability to give a 3rd argument to the constructor to set the retryInterval in ms
  • the #connect() method to actually create a WebSocket and connect to the server
const client = new RWebSocket('ws://echo.websocket.org', null, 25000);

Reconnection attempts will be made once every 25 seconds
NB: the 'null' param is for the protocol because the constructor is the same as the WebSocket RFC + retryInterval
