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 🙏

synopsize

npm version

Summarize tables of structured data, such as CSV or JSON!

$ npm install -g synopsize

Example, using Capital Metro's fare_rules.txt:

$ synopsize < fare_rules.txt
[0] "fare_id"
  Type: TEXT
  No missing values (83 total)
  There are 3 unique values, which range from a to c
    a: 63
    b: 11
    c: 9
[1] "route_id"
  Type: INTEGER
  No missing values (83 total)
  All values are unique and range from 1 to 990
  10 random examples:
    982
    987
    985
    983
    7
    935
    681
    803
    801
    663
[2] "origin_id"
  Type: TEXT
  83 missing values (out of 83 total), or 100.00%
  No values to show
[3] "destination_id"
  Type: TEXT
  83 missing values (out of 83 total), or 100.00%
  No values to show
[4] "contains_id"
  Type: TEXT
  83 missing values (out of 83 total), or 100.00%
  No values to show

To-do

  • [x] Support newline-delimited JSON as input
  • [ ] Infer more complex types
    • [ ] come up with better names / descriptions
    • [x] custom sort (compareFunction) for each type
  • [ ] Draw histograms for continuous types
  • [ ] Smarter examples when showing random samples
  • [ ] Add option to sort by count instead of value
  • [ ] Width-aware padded output, especially for long values and the value: count tables
  • [ ] Generalize for CLI / web consumption
