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 🙏

Serpa (series & parallel)

Build Status Dependency Status Coverage Status Code Climate

Serpa is a small utility library for promise chaining.

Promises may be chained in series or parallel:

var serpa = require(serpa),
    series = serpa.series,
    parallel = serpa.parallel,
    split = serpa.split;

//Being task1, task2a, task2b and task3 functions
//that either return promises for async taks
//or a value, then:
var work = series( //configure the work to be done
    task1,
    parallel(task2a, task2b),
    split(task3)
  );

work() //do the work
  .then(
    function (result) {
      console.log("Work finished with result" + result);
    },
    function (err){
      console.log("Some task failed with err: " + err);
    });

Series

Series execution of the tasks. The result of each task is passed to the next task.

function addTwo(x) {
  return x  + 2;
}
function addThree(x) {
  var defer = q.defer();
  setTimeout(function () {
      defer.resolve(x + 3);
    },1000);
  return defer.promise();
}

var work = series(
    addTwo,
    addThree
  );

work(1).then(function (result) {
  console.log(result); //eventually logs 6
});

Parallel

All the tasks are executed in parallel. The entry value is passed to each task.

function addTwo(x) {
  return x  + 2;
}
function addThree(x) {
  var defer = q.defer();
  setTimeout(function () {
      defer.resolve(x + 3);
    },1000);
  return defer.promise();
}

var work = parallel(
    addTwo,
    addThree
);

work(1).then(function (result) {
  console.log(result); //eventually logs [3, 4];
});

Split

The tasks are executed for each element of the array that should be the input to the chain.


function addTwo(x) {
  return x  + 2;
}
function addThree(x) {
  var defer = q.defer();
  setTimeout(function () {
      defer.resolve(x + 3);
    },1000);
  return defer.promise();
}

var work = split(
    addTwo,
    addThree
);

work([1,2,3]).then(function (result) {
  console.log(result); //eventually logs [6, 7, 8];
});

Preserve

The tasks are executed and then the original value is returned

var work = preserve(
  series(
    split(
      addTwo, addThree
    )
  )
);

work([1,2]).then(function (result){
  console.log(result); //eventually logs [1,2];
});
