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

Socketmon

Gotta Watch 'em All!

A WebSocket monitoring tool for inspecting and sending WebSocket messages to connected clients.

Installation and usage

First, install the package globally.

npm i -g socketmon

Then run it by executing:

socketmon

The WebSocket server will be available on ws://localhost:6868

The client for monitoring and sending messages is located at http://localhost:6767

Socketmon in action

Example screen

What does it do?

Socketmon creates a debug / temporary server that listens to and sends WebSocket messages to connected clients.

When a WebSocket connection is established from any application, the server will act as a sort of man in the middle which you can inspect from the build-in client.

It makes inspecting and sending WebSocket messages easy without having to build an actual WebSocket server.

Future plans

One of the features that I really want to add is the ability to proxy an existing WebSocket server.

Feel free to add your thoughts in the issue tracker.
