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 🙏

About The Project

I've had a need for quickly creating secrets for various use cases, for example, creating a secret for a new API key or a JWT secret. I've always used online tools or NodeJS, but I wanted a simple command line tool that I could use to create secrets for any use case.

Built With

Getting Started

To get a local copy up and running follow these simple steps.

Install the package globally with:

npm i -g sshhh

Then run the command to generate a secret:

sshhh

Usage

By default, the command will generate a 256 byte secret encoded in Base64. You can change the length of the secret with the -l or --length flag. You can also change the encoding with the -t or --type flag.

The -l or --length flag accepts a number between 4 and 268,435,456 (this is due to the maximum string possible in JavaScript).

The -t or --type flag accepts the following values: base64, hex, base64url.

The -c or --clipboard flag copies the key to your system's clipboard.

The -ch or --clipboard_hide flag copies the key to your system's clipboard and hides the key.

The -std or --std flag removes all unneccessary logs. Useful for piping.

Example: For a 512 byte secret encoded in hex:

sshhh -l 512 -t hex

For more help type:

sshhh --help
