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 🙏

#Torrent Scraper

Torrent Scraper is a node js library for scraping torrent sites for searching and accessing them in a easy way. Scrapers can be added or use existing ones for scraping different torrent sites.

  • kickass torrent (kat)
  • isohunt (isohunt)

Usage

search(name, [scrapers,] callback)

searchShow(show_name, season_number, episode_number, [scrapers,] callback)

var ts = require('torrent-scraper');

console.log(ts.scrapers); // list of all scrapers

// search for game of thrones season 1 episode 2 with all scrapers
ts.searchShow('Game of Thrones', 1, 2, function(entries) {
        var entry = entries[0];
        console.log(entry);
});

// search for suits season 1 episode 5 in the kat scraper only (kickass torrent)
ts.searchShow('Suits', 1, 5, ['kat'], function(entries) {
        var entry = entries[0];
        console.log(entry);
});

// search for deadpool in all scrapers
ts.search('Deadpool', function(entries) {
        var entry = entries[0];
        console.log(entry);
});

Structure of a scraper

A scraper must saved inside the scrapers directory and be in the following format

// require all libraries that you use

// useful custom file for formating strings and other stuff
var util = require('../util');

var SEARCH_URL = "https://kat.cr/usearch/{:query:}/";

module.exports = function(query, cb) {
        var url = util.format(SEARCH_URL, {query: query});

        // search the site that you choose
	// the callback must be called from the function with the format below
        cb(err, [{
                name: name, // name of the torrent (required)
                size: size, // size of the torrent (optional)
                files: files, // file count of the torrent (optional)
                seeders: seeders, // seeders of the torrent (required)
                leechers: leechers, // leechers of the torrent (optional)
                magnet: magnet // magnet link of the torrent (required)
        }]);
};
