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 🙏

Treehouse

NodeJS utilities and handy helpers extending ExpressJS functionalities

npm version Dependencies Build Status Coverage Status Greenkeeper badge

Installation

Install via npm

npm install tree-house

or via yarn

yarn add tree-house

Usage

const treehouse = require('tree-house')
import * as treehouse from 'tree-house'

Security

setBasicSecurity(app, route, options)

Set some basic Express security using cors and helmet.

const app = express();

treehouse.setBasicSecurity(app, '*', {
  cors: {},   // cors options
  helmet: {}, // helmet options
})

setBodyParser(app, route, options)

Set a body parser using the body-parser module

const app = express();

treehouse.setBodyParser(app, '*', {
  json: {},   // json options
  raw: {}, // raw options
  text: {}, // text options
  urlEncoded: {}, // urlEncoded options
})

getRateLimiter(options)

Get a rate limiter instance to prevent brute force attacks. This can be used as a middleware in Express. At the moment there is support for a built in-memorystore or Redis. Both use the express-rate-limit module.

const app = express();

// In memory store (development purposes)
const globalRateLimiter = treehouse.getRateLimiter({
  max: 100, // limit each IP to 100 requests per windowMs
  delayMs: 0 // disable delaying - full speed until the max limit is reached
  windowMs: 60 * 60 * 1000, // 1 hour window
  message:
    "Too many accounts created from this IP, please try again after an hour"
});

app.use('/login', globalRateLimiter, ...);

// Using existing Redis client
treehouse.getRateLimiter({
  redis: {
    client: existingClient, // All Redis options or 'client' to use an existing client (see rate-limit-redis)
  },
});

Responder

handleAsyncFn((req, res, next(optional)) => { ... })

Express middleware that wraps and executes a given function with try/catch to avoid unhandled promises within Express.

const app = express();

function getAllUsers(req, res) {
  //  res.send(users) -> return users...
  // or
  // if an unhandled error occurs this will be passed onto the Express error handler instead of raising an UnhandledPromiseRejectionError
}

app.use('/users', treehouse.handleAsyncFn(getAllUsers));

Server

startServer(app, options)

Start an http or https server using an express instance

const app = express();

treehouse.startServer(app, {
  port: 3000,
  title: 'My app',
  pre: preFn,       // function to execute before starting server (optional)
  post: postFn,     // function to execute after starting server (optional) - will contain the http server as first argument
  https: {          // optional
    port: 3001,
    privateKey: 'assets/ssl.key',
    certificate: 'assets/ssl.cert',
  },
  keepAliveTimeout: 60000, // optional
  headersTimeout: 60000, // optional
})

Swagger

setSwagger(app, route, filePath, options)

Serve Swagger UI via the a provided Swagger yaml file OR folder with valid structure and yaml files.

YAML file implementation

const app = express();

await treehouse.setSwagger(app, '/documentation', 'documentation/swagger.yml', {
  host: 'localhost:3000',
  schemes: ['http'],
};

Folder implementation with valid structure

Structure

.
├── validFolderName
|   ├── index.yml # contains basic info + definition models
|   └── routes
|          ├── route1.yml
|          └── randomName.yml
|          ├── ... # more yml files

Example code

const app = express();

treehouse.setSwagger(app, '/documentation', 'documentation/validFolderName', {
  host: 'localhost:3000',
  schemes: ['http'],
  concatenate : true, // The property to enable folder functionality
};

Validator

validateSchema(schema, options)

Express middleware to validate a Joi schema using the express-validation module. This will throw an error as an instance of ExpressValidationError if the Joi validation fails.

const schema =   {
  body: Joi.object({
    name: Joi.string().required(),
  })
};

app.post('/my-endpoint', treehouse.validateSchema(schema), ...);
