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 🙏

Short URI Maker

Given a UUID string and a UNIX timestamp in milliseconds, make a short URI slug that can be tagged onto a domain. Each character of the slug is a letter (lower and upper), a digit, a hyphen, a period, an underscore, or a tilde, to be completely ANSI-URI-compliant. The slug contains two concatenated components--a unique ID slug and a time-since slug.

Install

npm install coffee-script -g
npm install uuid-time-uri

Configuration

The maker is configured using:

utUri.configure({ ... options ... });

And the options are as follows:

{Number} [definition = 8] A number between 1 and 32

A number of characters is taken from the UUID as digest for the slug, excluding dashes. A UUID is 32 characters long and thus valid value is 1 - 32. Default is 8.

{String} [domain]

An optional domain can be provided to be inserted before the slug.

{Number} [epoch = 1357016400000] A positive number

An epoch can be defined as the number of milliseconds since the UNIX Epoch (i.e. 1970-01-01) on which the counting for the URI starts. Defaulf to 2013-01-01.

{Number} [granularity = 86400] A positive number

A granularity, defined as a number of milliseconds, is provided to serve as a unit of counts. For instance, if the granularity is a second, represented as 1, the time-since slug represents the number of milliseconds since the defined epoch. Default to a day.

Usage

Simply call make() with the following arguments:

{String} uuid The UUID (with or without dashes) {Number} time UNIX timestamp

Examples

var utUri = require('uuid-time-uri');
var utUri epoch = new Date(2013, 01, 01);
var date = new Date(2014, 01, 01);
var month = 60 * 60 * 24 * 30;
var output = null;

utUri.configure({
  definition: 8
  epoch: epoch.getTime(),
  domain: 'example.com',
  granularity: month
});

output = utUri.make('550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000', date.getTime());

console.log(output); // Equals 'example.com/19DdWCC'
