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

strip-dirs

npm version Build Status Build status Coverage Status

Remove leading directory components from a path, like tar(1)'s --strip-components option

const stripDirs = require('strip-dirs');

stripDirs('foo/bar/baz', 1); //=> 'bar/baz'
stripDirs('foo/bar/baz', 2); //=> 'baz'
stripDirs('foo/bar/baz', 999); //=> 'baz'

Installation

Use npm.

npm install strip-dirs

API

const stripDirs = require('strip-dirs');

stripDirs(path, count [, option])

path: string (A relative path)
count: integer (>= 0)
option: Object
Return: string

It removes directory components from the beginning of the path by count.

const stripDirs = require('strip-dirs');

stripDirs('foo/bar', 1); //=> 'bar'
stripDirs('foo/bar/baz', 2); //=> 'bar'
stripDirs('foo/././/bar/./', 1); //=> 'bar'
stripDirs('foo/bar', 0); //=> 'foo/bar'

stripDirs('/foo/bar', 1) // throw an error because the path is an absolute path

If you want to remove all directory components certainly, use path.basename instead of this module.

option.disallowOverflow

Type: boolean
Default: false

By default, it keeps the last path component when path components are fewer than the count.

If this option is enabled, it throws an error in this situation.

stripDirs('foo/bar/baz', 9999); //=> 'baz'

stripDirs('foo/bar/baz', 9999, {disallowOverflow: true}); // throws an range error
