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

TFL - Node

This is a node package for interacting with the Transport for London (TFL) api.

It comes with a tool for accessing this data directly via the command line, or can be used within your own projects.

Installation

Install with:

$ npm install -g tfl

move binary to /usr/local/bin ?

Command-line Tool

Tube

Line Status

$ tfl tube --line District

Station Status

$ tfl tube --station Aldgate East

Overground (Work in Progress)

$ tfl overground --station London Bridge

Buses (Work in Progress)

$ tfl bus --route 66

Cycle Hire (Work in Progress)

$ tfl cycle ...

Roads (Work in Progress)

Road Status

$ tfl road --name Park Lane

Route Status This will perform a search for the typical route taken between two roads and retrieve the statuses for each road on the route.

$ tfl road --from "Whitechapel Road" --to "Park Lane"

Road Traffic Cam

$ tfl road --camera Park Lane

Using the package in your own projects

Require the tfl package as usual:

var tfl = require('tfl');

Since each command sends a request to the TFL api, the response is returned in a promise. For example, to get the current list of incidents on tube lines you can call:

tfl.tube.status({
    'incidents': true,
}).then(function(lines) {
    console.log(lines);
});

The function passed into then() will be called asynchronously once the request to the api has returned and been processed.
