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 🙏

Legal Things - Table of contents JSON

With this module you can generate a table of contents represented in a JSON structure based on a piece of HTML.

Requirements

Installation

The library can be installed using npm.

npm install table-of-contents-json

How it works

The library exposes two functions. You can generate a table of contents in JSON format. Based on the returned JSON format you can generate a table of contents in HTML. The TOC is generated based on the headers in the html file that was given. Nesting is supported.

Generate takes 2 parameters: html and options

  • html: html from which the toc is generated
  • options: object with options.
    • skipHeader: integer with number of header to skip
const TOC = require('table-of-contents-json');
const toc = new TOC;

let html = `

      <body>
        <h1>Paragraph 1</h1>
        <h2>Paragraph 1.1</h2>

        <h2>Paragraph 2.2</h2>
        <h3>Paragraph 2.2.1</h3>
      </body>
    </html>
`;

console.log(toc.generateJSON(html));
/*
