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

WebRTC Simple File Transfer

A simple library to send & receive files over WebRTC data channels. All you need to pass is a simple-peer object, the file, and an ID!

Features

  • Pause/Resume file transfers
  • No file size limit
  • Independent, just pass a simple-peer object
  • Multiple file transfers at the same time using the same simple-peer object

Examples

Apps Made With SPF

Simple Example

Open this webpage in two separate browser windows. This simple example is based on the example shown in simple-peer README

Sender :

import SimplePeerFiles from 'simple-peer-files'
const spf = new SimplePeerFiles()

function readyToSend () {
  // peer is the SimplePeer object connection to receiver
  spf.send(peer, 'myFileID', file).then(transfer => {
    transfer.on('progress', sentBytes => {
      console.log(sentBytes)
    })
    transfer.start()
  })
}

Receiver :

import SimplePeerFiles from 'simple-peer-files'
const spf = new SimplePeerFiles()

// peer is the SimplePeer object connection to sender
spf.receive(peer, 'myFileID').then(transfer => {
  transfer.on('progress', sentBytes => {
    console.log(sentBytes)
  })

  // Call readyToSend() in the sender side
  peer.send('heySenderYouCanSendNow')
})

You have to call spf.receive() in receiver before you call spf.send() in sender. This is to prepare the receiver to accept file before sending starts. This also allows to implement a functionality for the receiver to accept or reject the file.
