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 🙏

Ubersmith

Ubersmith.com

A painless way to interact with the Ubermsith API asynchronously in your node app

With this API wrapper, you can send requests to your Ubersmith instance in your node app with fairly minimal effort.

Installation

npm install ubersmith

###Usage

First, create a variable with your instance details:

var client = new UberAPI('user', 'password', 'url');

You can create as many of these as you need if you're working with multiple instances.

Each level of your API call(s) needs to be represented with an object with child objects to represent the API methods. In these child objects, you can include optional arguments and callbacks:

var uber_calls = {};

uber_calls['client.count'] = {};
uber_calls['device.list'] = {
  args: {
    inactive: 0,
    limit: 10
  },
  callback: function (err, res) {
    err ? console.log (err) : console.log(res.body);
  }
}

Once your API calls are defined, call the Async() function on the original client object created:

client.Async(uber_calls);

Since these API calls are asynchronously, there's no way to predict which callback will fire first. In most cases, you'll probably find that calls which normally return less data and take less arguments will process faster, but you should never rely on that and always write your callbacks accordingly.

Methods with no function defined will call console.log on the JSON output. If you would rather this be silenced, define a callback object, but leave it empty:

uber_calls['device_list'] = {
  callback: {}
}
