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

Serverless Local Dev Server Plugin (Beta)

Build Status

This plugin exposes Alexa-Skill and HTTP events as local HTTP endpoints, removing the need to deploy every code change to AWS Lambda. You can connect these endpoints to Alexa, Facebook Messenger or other services via forwardhq, ngrok or any other forwarding service.

Supported features:

  • Expose alexa-skill and http events as local HTTP endpoints
  • Environment variables
  • Basic HTTP integration
  • Auto reload via nodemon (see How To)

This package requires node >= 6.0

How To

1. Install the plugin

npm install serverless-local-dev-server --save-dev

2. Add the plugin to your serverless configuration file

serverless.yml configuration example:

provider:
  name: aws
  runtime: nodejs6.10

functions:
  hello:
    handler: handler.hello
    events:
      - alexaSkill
      - http: GET /hello

# Add serverless-local-dev-server to your plugins:
plugins:
  - serverless-local-dev-server

# if needed add folder for serving static files if necessary (relative to service path)
custom:
  localDevStaticFolder: path/to/static/files

3. Start the server

serverless local-dev-server

On default the server listens on port 5005. You can specify another one with the --port argument:

serverless local-dev-server --port 5000

To automatically restart the server when files change, you may use nodemon:

nodemon --exec "serverless local-dev-server" -e "js yml json"

To see responses returned from Lambda and stack traces, prepend SLS_DEBUG=*

SLS_DEBUG=* serverless local-http-server

4. For Alexa Skills

4.1 Share localhost with the internet

For example with forwardhq:

forward 5005

4.2 Configure AWS to use your HTTPS endpoint

In the Configuration pane, select HTTPS as service endpoint type and specify the forwarded endpoint URL.

As method for SSL Certificate validation select My development endpoint is a sub-domain of a domain that has a wildcard certificate from a certificate authority.
