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

ScrAdd - Script Adder

Adds script to a package.json file from the terminal or in scripts.

I've often seen the need to programmatically be able to add a script or two to a package.json, for example when writing instructions for a tutorial or lesson. With ScrAdd this is now just a npx command away.

ScrAdd will not overwrite existing scripts, but rather inform you that one of those exists already.

Usage

npx scradd {path to package.json} {script name} {script content} -o'
  • -o - overwrites an existing script. Default behavior is to not overwrite existing scripts

Examples

  • Add a simple script to a local package.json

    npx scradd . test "mocha ."
  • Add a simple script to a non-local package.json

    npx scradd ~/projects/myproj/package.json test "mocha ."
  • Adding a script with separators in the name requires quotes:

    npx scradd . "test:watch:integration" "mocha ."
  • Adding script content just about always requires quotes, since it contains spaces:

    npx scradd . "test:watch" "npm t -- -R min -w ./src/"
  • Overwrite an existing script using the -o flag, for example the test script that is created by default:

    npx scradd . "test" "mocha -R min" -o

Contribute

This is a quick and dirty first version of the code. I wanted it to be workable but not perfect.
