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 🙏

salvager

v1.0.13

Published

Reuse row elements when displaying large datasets.

Readme

salvager

build status npm version npm downloads

Sauce Test Status

Reuse row elements when displaying large datasets. This is beneficial to performance since the number of row elements rendered to the DOM is fixed, no matter how big the dataset is.

Caveats

  • Assumes a consistent row height
  • If data.length * rowHeight exceeds the maximum element height for a particular browser, all rows may not be displayed.

Installation

$ npm install salvager --save

You can also use the files in dist, where salvager is exposed via UMD.

Example

import salvager from 'salvager';

const data = [];
for (let i = 1; i <= 50000; i++) data.push('Item ' + i);

salvager({
  target: document.querySelector('.Container'),
  data: data,
  bufferSize: 50,
  buildRow(data) {
    var row = document.createElement('div');
    row.style.padding = '10px';
    row.textContent = data;
    row.style.backgroundColor = getStripeColour(data);
    return row;
  },
  updateRow(row, data) {
    row.textContent = data;
    row.style.backgroundColor = getStripeColour(data);
  }
});

function getStripeColour(data) {
  if (data.split(' ').pop() % 2 === 0) return '#eee';
  return '#fff';
}

To run the browser example:

$ npm run example

API

salvager(target, data, [bufferSize], [buildRow], [updateRow])

Renders recyclable rows based on data into the target element.

Arguments

  • target - The element which will contain the recyclable row elements.
  • data - The array of data to display.
  • bufferSize - Optional The number of row elements rendered into the DOM, which will be recycled as the list is scrolled. Defaults to 100.
  • buildRow - Optional The function used to generate each row element. Defaults to:
data => {
  const row = document.createElement('div');
  row.textContent = data;
  return row;
}
  • updateRow - Optional The function used when updating a row element. Defaults to:
(row, data) => row.textContent = data

Tests

$ npm run test-local

React

Salvager has been ported to a React module, see react-salvager.
