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 🙏

verum-cli

the official command-line client for the Verum encrypted chat system

What can verum-cli do?

verum-cli is a fairly flexible application, especially as it's open source. It's capable of registering you on a Node, updating your public key on your Node, sending a messages, and retrieving and decrypting your messages.

How does it work?

verum-cli commands, mostly, follow the following syntax:

verum-cli <action> [options]

where action is one of the following (though help can be obtained by providing a nonexistant action, or omitting the argument entirely):

Actions

setup

This command sets up Verum-CLI with your Verum ID, password, public key, and private key. This command needs to always be used when you're:

  • setting up Verum-CLI
  • registering on a Verum Node
  • updating your public key on a Verum Node
  • switching Verum Nodes

This command takes no arguments, using a tutorial-based structure to get required details.

register

This will register you on the Node node (as determined by your verum id) with the username user (similarly determined), giving you a Verum ID exactly as the one specified as verum id. This may not be successful if a user already exists on the Node with your username, but we'll alert you if that happens. No options are required.

updatepubkey

This will guide you through the process of updating your public key on the Node. No options are required, but beware! that, when asked for your new public key, you must specify the path of an exported ascii armored key file, relative to the path displayed ion the "NOTICE" at the beginning of each client call. .. paths, etc, may be used.

getmsgs

This will retrieve, and attempt to decrypt, all of your received messages from the Node, and display them to you. The same file path warning applies as in updatepubkey. No options are needed.

sendmsg

This command has two required options:

  • recipient's verum id
    • the Verum ID of the recipient, as user@node
  • message to send
    • the message to be sent. As this is 1 value, your message must be surrounded by quotes ("s), with internal quotes escaped with a backslash (\)

The same file path warning applies as in updatepubkey.

Installation

verum-cli is provided as a Snap Package, so you should install that first.

Then, simply run [sudo] snap install verum-cli to install it. Run snap refresh to update your Snap apps.

What if I need to switch Nodes?

We get it. Sometimes Nodes are compromised, or you're changing your online identity. To change Nodes, just rerun verum-cli setup and verum-cli register. Then, update all your social media etc, and you're set!
