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 🙏

Terminal Dashboard

This shows a dashboard on terminal and updated automatically when data is provided.

How To Use

npm install term-dashboard
var Dashboard = require('term-dashboard').Dashboard;

var dashboard = new Dashboard({
    views: {
        header: [ { renderer: 'text', text: 'Terminal Dashboard Demo', fg: 'brightWhite', styles: ['bold', 'underline'] } ],
        worker: [
            { renderer: 'text', width: 20, key: 'name', align: 'right' },
            { renderer: 'text', width: 2, text: ' ' },
            { renderer: 'progressbar', width: -80, key: 'percent' },
            { renderer: 'text', width: -20, text: '...', align: 'right' }
        ],
        footer: [ { renderer: 'text', text: 'Press Control-C to exit ...' } ]
    },
    layout: [
        'head',
        'empty',
        { name: 'body', rows: 8 },
        'foot'
    ]
});

dashboard.update('head', 0, 'header', {}).update('foot', 0, 'footer', {});

workers.start().on('notify', function (worker, state) {
    dashboard.update('body', worker.index, 'worker', state);
});

Execute the test for a sample: npm test

Views

When constructing a dashboard, views defines all named views for data models. A "view" defines the rule to render one specific row in dashboard. And it is actually an array of renderer configurations for columns.

Layout

layout simply defines the rows of the dashboard, with each item called a "slot". A slot can be a single row, or a number of rows.

Update Data

Invoke update to send data into dashboard and show on a certain row:

dashboard.update(slot, index, view, data);

Here slot and index specify which row to show the data. Use layout to determine the row. view specify which view to use to split the data into columns and render them on the same row.

Without specifying data will clear that row.

Redraw or Reconfigure Layout

dashboard.refresh(layout);

Without layout just redraw the whole dashboard. Otherwise reconfigure the layout and redraw.
