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.

npm install vagrant virtual machine vm symlink annoying bug help kill me plz

`sympm`

sympm allows you to run npm install from inside of a Vagrant virtual machine without hitting symlink issues due to shared folders. It does so by symlinking your local node_modules/ directory to ~/.sympm/<currentDirBasename>/node_modules/, allowing npm to correctly symlink binaries and other goodies on install.

This tool is not meant to be used outside of a virtual machine.

Installation

npm install -g sympm

Usage

The commands below should be run within your virtual machine via vagrant ssh.

Install

Creates a symlink from ./node_modules to ~/.sympm/<currentDirBasename>/node_modules and runs npm install. You can then use npm normally with the new symlinked ./node_modules directory.

sympm install

Uninstall

Removes modules installed in ~/.sympm/<currentDirBasename> by running rm -rf ~/.sympm/<currentDirBasename>, and removes the symlinked ./node_modules directory.

sympm uninstall

Clean

Removes all modules installed in ~/.sympm/* by running rm -rf ~/.sympm/*.

sympm clean

To remove the symlink, simply rm ./node_modules and you're good to go. To completely uninstall sympm, remove the symlink and then run rm -rf ~/.sympm.
