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

SingleFileZ CLI (Command Line Interface)

Introduction

SingleFileZ can be launched from the command line by running it into a (headless) browser. It runs through Node.js as a standalone script injected into the web page instead of being embedded into a WebExtension. To connect to the browser, it can use Puppeteer or Selenium WebDriver. Alternatively, it can also emulate a browser with JavaScript disabled by using jsdom.

Installation with Docker

  • Installation from Docker Hub

    docker pull capsulecode/singlefilez

    docker tag capsulecode/singlefilez singlefilez

  • Manual installation

    git clone --depth 1 --recursive https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/single-filez-cli.git

    cd single-filez-cli

    docker build --no-cache -t singlefilez .

  • Run

    docker run singlefilez "https://www.wikipedia.org"

  • Run and redirect the result into a file

    docker run singlefilez "https://www.wikipedia.org" > wikipedia.html (Linux/UNIX or Windows with cmd.exe)

  • Run and mount a volume to get the saved file in the current directory

    • Save one page

      docker run -v %cd%:/usr/src/app/out singlefilez "https://www.wikipedia.org" wikipedia.html

      docker run -v $(pwd):/usr/src/app/out singlefilez "https://www.wikipedia.org" wikipedia.html (Linux/UNIX)

    • Save one or multiple pages by using the filename template (see --filename-template option)

      docker run -v %cd%:/usr/src/app/out singlefilez "https://www.wikipedia.org" --dump-content=false (Windows)

      docker run -v $(pwd):/usr/src/app/out singlefilez "https://www.wikipedia.org" --dump-content=false (Linux/UNIX)

Manual installation

  • Make sure Chrome or Firefox is installed and the executable can be found through the PATH environment variable. Otherwise you will need to set the --browser-executable-path option to help SingleFileZ locating it. As an alternative to Chrome and Firefox, you can use jsdom by setting the --back-end option to jsdom.

  • Install Node.js

  • There are 3 ways to download the code of SingleFileZ, choose the one you prefer (npm is installed with Node.js):

    • Download and install globally with npm

      npm install -g "gildas-lormeau/single-filez-cli"

    • Download and unzip manually the master archive provided by Github

      unzip master.zip .

      cd single-filez-cli-master

      npm install

    • Download with git

      git clone --depth 1 --recursive https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/single-filez-cli.git

      cd single-filez-cli

      npm install

  • Make single-filez executable (Linux/Unix/BSD etc.) if SingleFile is not installed globally.

    chmod +x single-filez

  • To use Firefox instead of Chrome, you must download the Selenium WebDriver component (i.e. geckodriver for Firefox). Make sure it can be found through the PATH environment variable or the cli folder. Otherwise you will need to set the --web-driver-executable-path option to help WebDriver locating the executable.

Run

  • Syntax

    single-filez <url> [output] [options ...]

  • Display help

    single-filez --help

  • Examples

    • Save https://www.wikipedia.org into wikipedia.html in the current folder

    single-filez https://www.wikipedia.org wikipedia.html

    • Save https://www.wikipedia.org into wikipedia.html in the current folder with Firefox instead of Chrome

    single-filez https://www.wikipedia.org wikipedia.html --back-end=webdriver-gecko

    • Save a list of URLs stored into list-urls.txt in the current folder

    single-filez --urls-file=list-urls.txt

    • Save https://www.wikipedia.org and crawl its internal links with the query parameters removed from the URL

    single-filez https://www.wikipedia.org --crawl-links=true --crawl-inner-links-only=true --crawl-max-depth=1 --crawl-rewrite-rule="^(.*)\\?.*$ $1"

    • Save https://www.wikipedia.org and external links only

    single-filez https://www.wikipedia.org --crawl-links=true --crawl-inner-links-only=false --crawl-external-links-max-depth=1 --crawl-rewrite-rule="^.*wikipedia.*$"

Troubleshooting

  • If the error message UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Browser is not downloaded. Run "npm install" or "yarn install" at ChromeLauncher.launch is displayed, it probably means that single-filez was not able to find the executable of the browser. Using the option --browser-executable-path to pass to single-filez the complete path of the executable fixes this issue.

  • If saving a page takes an unusually long time, this may be due to a timeout error that was automatically recovered. Setting --browser-wait-until to a lower value (e.g. networkidle0 or load instead of networkidle2) fixes this issue.
