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 🙏

Screw-FileReader

For those lazzy bastard who don't like the FileReader :)

npm version

npm install screw-filereader

A promisified Blob reader was proposed. But not as a external API like FileReader... Nooo - this is prototyped to blob directly!

This makes it easier to read stuff from Blob's and File's

Here is an example

// require('screw-filereader')
// import screw-filereader

arrayBuffer = await blob.arrayBuffer() // awaits a promise
text = await blob.text() // awaits a promise
dataUrl = await blob.dataUrl() // awaits a promise
stream = blob.stream() // returns a web ReadableStream

// BinaryString has been avoided
// - Binaries just don't work well with strings face it.
//   Send the blob with ajax instead or use ArrayBuffer if you want to work with the data
//
// Until someone gives me a good reason why I should add them


// Just bonuses
// ------------
json = await blob.json() // awaits a promise (rejects if fail to parse)
img = await blob.image([preventRevoke=false]) // awaits a new Image object (rejects if fail to load)

// returns a blob url (same as [webkit]URL.createObjectURL(blob))
// can also return null if it's not possible like on chrome for iOS...
url = blob.url() || await blob.dataUrl() // this is what blob.image() dose behind the scene...

blob.image() will read the Exif rotation in jpeg images and rotate it accordingly

If streams are enhanced with web-streams-polyfill then you get all the benefits of pipes as well :v: Otherwise only a ReadableStream without pipe will be returned (but only in Blink)
