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 🙏

Ugh

Now? Ugh. Running functions at top speed isn't for everyone.*

Usage

var Ugh = require('./slacker.js');
var arr = [ function () {console.log('Make budget');},
            function () {console.log('Work on budget');},
            function () {console.log('derp');},
            function () {console.log('get that budget done');},
            function () {console.log('almost...');} ];

var senator = new Ugh(1000, arr); // interval, function array

senator.start();

// Now just wait until the senator decides to go through its 
// work (tbh still better than irl)	

This eventually prints

yo
yo
yo
derp
yo
DONE

👍

But what if you have a function like this:

function work(who, days, things) {
	console.log(who, 'worked for', 
				days, 'days on',
				things.length, 'things.');
}	

You can use named functions and pass arguments by specifing them in a dictionary or passing more arguments to addFunction.

var arr = [ {function: work, args: [ 'Marie',  500, ['science'] ]},
			{function: work, args: [ 'Sancho', 500, ['stuff', 'travel'] ]}
		  ];

var senator = new Ugh(500, arr);
senator.addFunction(work, 'Foo', 500, ['bars', 'tests', 'debugging']);
senator.start();

Output:

Marie worked for 500 days on 1 things.
Sancho worked for 500 days on 2 things.
Foo worked for 500 days on 3 things.

Hellzyeah👌


* Especially for freely-hosted web services, which like to 502 and 503, which is why I built this in the first place. kthxbye.
