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 🙏

Tweet Harvest (Twitter Crawler)

Tweet Harvest is a command-line tool that uses Playwright to scrape tweets from Twitter search results based on specified keywords and date range. The scraped tweets are saved in a CSV file.

Note: This script is for educational purposes only. Twitter prohibits unauthenticated users from performing search or advanced search. To use this script, you need to have a valid Twitter account and obtain an Access Token, which can be obtained by logging into Twitter in your browser and extracting the auth_token cookie.

How to Use

To use Tweet Harvest, follow these simple steps:

  1. Install Node.js (LTS) on your computer.
  2. Open your terminal or command prompt.
  3. Type npx tweet-harvest@latest and press Enter.
  4. Follow the prompts to provide the data you want to search for on Twitter, such as keywords, dates, and other parameters.

That’s it! Tweet Harvest will open a Chromium browser instance and navigate to Twitter's search page. It will then enter your search parameters and scrape the resulting tweets. The tweets will be saved in a CSV file in a directory named tweets-data in the current working directory.

Note: You will need a Twitter auth token to use this tool. When prompted, enter your Twitter auth token to authenticate your search.
