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 🙏

Install

npm install --save timecloud-front

Note: Timecloud requires mongodb version >2.6.0 to perform the needed aggregate queries. This is your mongo database version, not your node package version! To check your database version, connect to mongo and run db.version().

Standalone usage

Timecloud-front comes with a standalone Express app which you can use like this:

./node_modules/.bin/timecloud-front --db=mongodb://localhost/timecloudDb --collection=timecloudJobs --port=3001

or like this, for default collection timecloudJobs and default port 3000:

./node_modules/.bin/timecloud-front --db=mongodb://localhost/timecloudDb

If you are using npm >= 5.2, then you can use npx:

npx timecloud-front --db=mongodb://localhost/timecloudDb --collection=timecloudJobs --port=3001

Middleware usage

Timecloud-front provides Express middleware you can use at a specified path, for example this will make Timecloud-front available on your site at the /dash path. Note: Do not try to mount Timecloud-front at the root level like app.use('/', Front(core)).

let express = require('express')
let app = express()

// ... your other express middleware like body-parser

let Core = require('timecloud-core')
let Front = require('timecloud-front')

let core = new Core({db: {address: 'mongodb://127.0.0.1/timecloudDb'}})
// or provide your own mongo client:
// let core = new Core({mongo: myMongoClient})

app.use('/dash', Front(core));

// ... your other routes

// ... start your server

By mounting Timecloud-front as middleware on a specific path, you may provide your own authentication for that path. For example if you have an authenticated session using passport, you can protect the dashboard path like this:

app.use('/dash',
  function (req, res, next) {
    if (!req.user || !req.user.is_admin) {
      res.send(401);
    } else {
      next();
    }
  },
  Front(core)
);

Other middlewares will come soon in the folder /lib/middlewares/. You'll just have to update the last line to require the middleware you need:

app.use('/timecloud', Front(core, {
  middleware: 'koa'
}));

Additional options

The second argument to Timecloud is an optional object. Valid keys are:

  • middleware: Currently only 'express' is supported. I'd like to use 'koa' soon.
  • title: Defaults to "Timecloud". Useful if you are running multiple Timecloud pools.
