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

@DEPRECATED

This module won't get maintenance any more. It will remain here to provide it for those projects that use it, but that's all. As an alternative, we recommend to move to DocsOnFilesDB

Silly NoSQL (v0.0.6)

NoSQL database emulated with files. For small tests, not real stuff, of course, c'mon, don't be silly.

Installation

To install this module on your NodeJS project run this:

npm install silly-nosql --save

How to use

First of all, you need to create a directory where to store your data, as an example will conside a directory called db in the same direcory where you store your script.

Then use a cose like this:

'use strict';
//
// Importing requried library.
const path = require('path');
//
// Importing this library.
const snsql = require('silly-nosql');
//
// Getting the connections manager singleton.
const snsqlManager = snsql.manager;
//
// Getting a connection to our database (... the directory).
const myDB = snsqlManager.connect(path.join(__dirname, 'db'));
//
// Getting a table. If it doesn't exist, it will create it.
const myTable = myDB.table('my_table');
//
// Inserting an arbitrary object.
myTable.insert({
    name: 'John Doe',
    age: 20,
    address: {
        city: 'Some City',
        address: 'Some street 49'
    }
});
//
// Retrieving and prompting.
console.log('Results:', JSON.stringify(myTable.all()));

This should show you something like this:

Results: [{"name":"John Doe","age":20,"address:{"city:"Some City","address":"Some street 49"}}]

Objects and Methods

ExpressJS adapter

If you use ExpressJS you can use this to expose your tables as a RESTful API:

'use strict'
const path = require('path');
const express = require('express');
const snsql = require('silly-nosql');

const app = express();
const snsqlManager = snsql.manager;
const myDB = snsqlManager.connect(path.join(__dirname, 'db'));
const myTable = myDB.table('my_table');

// ... all your express setting

snsql.adapters.ExpressAdapter.adapat(app, myTable, {
    path: '/rest/v1'
});

// ... rest of your stuff

This will provide you with this endpoints:

  • GET /rest/vi/my_table
  • POST /rest/vi/my_table
  • GET /rest/vi/my_table/:id
  • PUT /rest/vi/my_table/:id
  • PATCH /rest/vi/my_table/:id
  • DELETE /rest/vi/my_table/:id
