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

Sprockets-style directive loader for webpack

Converts Sprockets/Rails directives—things like //= require <path>—into modules recognizable by Webpack. Works on JS, CoffeeScript, CSS, and Sass files.

Caveats

  1. This loader assumes that every JS file you //= require is a complete, valid JavaScript file that can run on its own. In Rails, you could concatenate together files that were each not valid JavaScript syntax (for example, three files like this: function sillySplitFunction() {, console.log('in silly function');, } // end silly function).
  2. Related to #1, your JS files will no longer be run in the global context. They will wrapped inside functions like Webpack does with all modules. So if you were relying on your top-level JS variables getting set globally (or on the window), that will no longer work.
  3. This loader doesn't do automatic extension conversion for you. Sprockets/Rails would allow you to refer to //= require file.coffee or //= require file.js, but in this loader you'll need to refer to exactly the extension that is on the file system (at the point the loader runs?).

Note it may be possible to fix some or all of the above, but this is only version 0.x.y and I'm trying the simplest approach first.

Usage

Documentation: Using loaders

Examples

{
  // ...

  module: {
    // Needs to be a pre-loader so that it is run before files are convered to JS
    preLoaders: [
      {
        test: /\.js$/,
        loader:  "sprockets-directive-loader"
      }, {
        test: /\.css$/,
        loader: "sprockets-directive-loader"
      }
    ],

    // ...
  }
}
