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 🙏

Usage

// Node http server
import http from 'http'
import counter from 'visitor-counter'

// init the package with a mongodb url
const stats = await counter()

const httpServer = http.createServer(async (req, res) => {
  // add recorder in request handler
  await stats.record(req, res)

  /**
   * optional ui-middleware
   * navigate to "/visitor-counter" in your app to see ui
   */
  await stats.ui(req, res)

  // get stats somewhere in your app
  // param can be either:
  // '2021,1,1' -> returns visitor count from date to now
  // '2021,1,1-2021,12,31' -> returns visitor count between dates
  // second | minute | hour | day | week | month | year -> helpers
  res.end(JSON.stringify(await stats.get('month')))
})

httpServer.listen(3333, () => console.log('running on http://localhost:3333'))
// Express
import express from 'express'
import counter from 'visitor-counter'
const app = express()
const stats = await counter()

app.use(await stats.record)
app.use(await stats.ui)

app.get('/', async (req, res) => {
  res.send(JSON.stringify(await stats.get('month')))
})

app.listen(3000)

API

await stats.record(req, res) // track visitor
await stats.ui(req, res) // middleware to activate ui
await stats.get() // get all stats
await stats.get('2022/02/01') // get stats from date
await stats.get('2022/03/01', '2022/04/01') // get stats within date range
await stats.visitors() // get current amount of visitors
