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 🙏

Bad Release

Professionally publish your JavaScript modules in one keystroke

Key Features

  • Updates your version according to semantic versioning
  • Runs your tests or any other prepublish scripts you've defined in package.json
  • Updates your changelog according to the conventional changelog spec
  • Publishes your module to NPM (optionally turned off via --no-publish)
  • Pushes your code and tags to git (optionally turned off via --no-push)
  • Supports changelog links for both Github & Bitbucket Enterprise (formerly Stash)
  • Automatically recovers from errors by safely resetting to the git state prior to running unleash
  • Features a "dry run" mode for most commands that will allow you to preview what change unleash will make before it makes them
  • Allows you to preview what files will and won't be published to NPM (--list-publishables)
  • Works w/ Node versions all the way back to 4.8.5

Convince your manager (Why use Unleash?)

  • Unleash eats its own dogfood. Unleash is used to release itself
  • Unleash eliminates common time-wasting / colleague-confusing mistakes such as forgetting to tag your releases, update your changelog or forgetting to publish your module)
  • Unleash encourages use of software comprehension conventions such as the CHANGELOG by making it dead easy
  • Unleash encourages you to make git commit messages that make sense to everyone in your organization
  • Unleash is constructed from battle-tested and well-understood open source modules such as npm, vinyl-fs, yargs, chalk & semver. Additionally, the architecture of Unleash is partially based on Gulp
  • Unleash uses the Angular Conventional Changelog manner of using git commit conventions
  • Unleash takes inter-organizational compatibility seriously—most any version of Node being used by a team will work with Unleash

View which files will be published to NPM

This can be helpful in ensuring your package is being published with the least amount of files possible, while also ensuring you have all the files you need. We use this to eliminate files like .eslintrc and .tern-project.

unleash -ls

OR...

unleash --list-publishables

Publish your project's documentation to Github Pages

Manually leveraging Github's Pages feature can be tedious. You need to maintain a branch that's orphaned from master and yet is based on assets and/or tasks from master. Unleash can help by allowing you to publish files matching a quoted glob string to gh-pages from the comfort of the branch you normally work on.

unleash --gh
# defaults to "./docs/**/*"

OR...

unleash --ghpages-deploy --ghpages-path "./public/**/*"

Git Commit Convention Examples

perf(pencil): remove graphiteWidth option
fix(graphite): stop graphite breaking when width < 0.1
feat(pencil): add 'graphiteWidth' option

# Global w/ latest stable release
npm i unleash -g
