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

summon-middleware

Dynamically enable or disable express middlewares

This wrapper allows you to dynamically enable or disable an express or connect middleware or an array of them. In some circumstances you would use one or more middlewares only if some conditions are met.

Build Status Build status NPM version NPM downloads

Installation

If you want to use summon-middleware you have to install it. There are two methods to do that:

First method

In your package.json add the following item for the latest version:

"summon-middleware": "*"

or, if you want a specific version, just add an item like the following, specifying the version number:

"summon-middleware": "2.0.2"

then launch this command:

npm install

Second method

Just launch this command:

npm install summon-middleware --save

Use

summonMiddleware(middleware, predicate)
  • middleware {Function|Function[]} an express or connect middleware or an array of them.
  • predicate {Function} a function that returns a boolean value and that represents the condition for which the provided middlewares have to be used or not.
  • returns: a single middleware or an array of middlewares.

If the parameters' type does not match with those required, an error will be thrown. In pariticular, the error will be an instance of SummonMiddlewareError.

Examples

Providing a single middleware

var summonMiddleware = require('summon-middleware')

var express = require('express')
var app = express()

var responsePoweredBy = require('response-powered-by')
var POWERED_BY = "@NickNaso"

app.use(summonMiddleware(responsePoweredBy(POWERED_BY), function () {
  // some instructions...
  if (<your condition>) {
    return true
  }
  return false
}))

Providing an array of middlewares

var summonMiddleware = require('summon-middleware')

var express = require('express')
var app = express()

var responsePoweredBy = require('response-powered-by')
var POWERED_BY = "@NickNaso"
var responseTime = require('response-time')

var myMiddlewares = [
  responsePoweredBy(POWERED_BY),
  responseTime()
]

app.use(summonMiddleware(myMiddlewares, function () {
  // some instructions...
  if (<your condition>) {
    return true
  }
  return false
}))
