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 🙏

@ - allow v-model binding

AOA = Array of Array, i.e. [[...], [...]]
AOO = Array of Object, i.e. [{...}, {...}]

I suppose you try to read all the above variables only. Do not try to modify any value of the above variables, unless you deeply walk through the codes and know the consequences.

Example

An example to show 5x6 table:

<template>
    <vue-excel-editor v-model="jsondata" filter-row>
        <vue-excel-column field="user"   label="User ID"       type="string" width="80px" />
        <vue-excel-column field="name"   label="Name"          type="string" width="150px" />
        <vue-excel-column field="phone"  label="Contact"       type="string" width="130px" />
        <vue-excel-column field="gender" label="Gender"        type="select" width="50px" :options="['F','M','U']" />
        <vue-excel-column field="age"    label="Age"           type="number" width="70px" />
        <vue-excel-column field="birth"  label="Date Of Birth" type="date"   width="80px" />
    </vue-excel-editor>
</template>

Note that the component will read the vue-excel-column when it is created. You may also skip all the column definitions. The control will help you to "guess" the rest:

<template>
    <vue-excel-editor v-model="jsondata" filter-row />
</template>

The sample data contains 5 records:

export default {
    name: 'app',
    data: {
        jsondata: [
            {user: 'hc', name: 'Harry Cole',    phone: '1-415-2345678', gender: 'M', age: 25, birth: '1997-07-01'},
            {user: 'sm', name: 'Simon Minolta', phone: '1-123-7675682', gender: 'M', age: 20, birth: '1999-11-12'},
            {user: 'ra', name: 'Raymond Atom',  phone: '1-456-9981212', gender: 'M', age: 19, birth: '2000-06-11'},
            {user: 'ag', name: 'Mary George',   phone: '1-556-1245684', gender: 'F', age: 22, birth: '2002-08-01'},
            {user: 'kl', name: 'Kenny Linus',   phone: '1-891-2345685', gender: 'M', age: 29, birth: '1990-09-01'}
        ]
    }
}

Work with redis for saving

You may capture the @delete and the @update event for saving purpose.

<vue-excel-editor v-model="jsondata" @delete="onDelete" @update="onUpdate">
    <vue-excel-column field="user" label="User ID" type="string" width="80px" key-field />
    ...
</vue-excel-editor>

Specified "key-field" is necessary, it will reflect in rec.keys in the following:

methods: {
    onDelete (records) {
      records = records.map(rec => ['del', rec.keys.join()])
      redis.multi(records).exec()
    },
    onUpdate (records) {
      records = records.map(rec => ['hset', rec.keys.join(), rec.name, rec.newVal])
      redis.multi(records).exec()
    }
}

New row

Set the reference by ref="..."

<vue-excel-editor ref="grid" v-model="jsondata">
    <vue-excel-column field="user" label="User ID" type="string" width="80px" key-field />
    ...
</vue-excel-editor>
methods: {
    newRecord () {
        const rec = {
            user: 'nm',
            name: 'Norman Morris',
            phone: '1-222-3333333',
            gender: 'M',
            age: 28,
            birth: '1993-05-16'
        }
        // Call this to new record
        this.$refs.grid.newRecord(rec)
    }
}

After the record created, a set of @update events will be fired. If you undo a newRecord transaction, component will generate the corresponding @delete events. In case you do not care about the undo, you may skip this by appending the new record in v-model variable (jsondata array) directly.

Delete row

methods: {
    delRecord () {
        this.$refs.grid.deleteRecord(0) // delete the 1st record: Harry Cole
    }
}

The component will generate the corresponding @delete events. You may also interest in the deleteSelectedRecords() method.

Remember the grid setting

The grid setting such as column width and column label can be saved in the localStorage of client browser by specified "remember" prop:

<template>
    <vue-excel-editor v-model="jsondata" remember>
    ...
    </vue-excel-editor>
</template>

You may also capture the @setting event to handle more specifics.

Change the column label

You may specify the column label in vue-excel-column label prop. However, it will persist after mounted. If you want to change the column label after mounted, you may try to update the variable fields. For example

    this.$refs.grid.fields.forEach((field) => {
        if (field.name === 'col23') field.label = 'Product'
        if (field.label === '') field.label = '(' + field.name + ')'
    })
    this.$forceUpdate()  // remember to call vue update to reflesh the display

Change the column invisibility

Same as column label, you may make the column visible/invisible in vue-excel-column label prop. However, it will persist after mounted. If you want to change it after mounted, you may try to update the variable fields. For example

    this.$refs.grid.fields.forEach((field) => {
        if (field.name === 'col23') field.invisible = false
    })
    this.$forceUpdate()  // remember to call vue update to reflesh the display

Export the content

The following provides the button to export the grid content.

<template>
    <button @click="exportAsExcel"> Export Excel </button>
    <button @click="exportAsCsv"> Export CSV </button>
    <vue-excel-editor ref="grid" ...>
        ...
    </vue-excel-editor>
</template>
methods: {
    exportAsExcel () {
        const format = 'xlsx'
        const exportSelectedOnly = true
        const filename = 'test'
        this.$refs.grid.exportTable(format, exportSelectedOnly, filename)
    }
    exportAsCsv () {
        const format = 'csv'
        const exportSelectedOnly = true
        const filename = 'test'
        this.$refs.grid.exportTable(format, exportSelectedOnly, filename)
    }
}

Note that only xlsx format supports compression.

Do something when user select/unselect the rows

The selected or unselected rows will be passed to the provided trigger method

<template>
    <vue-excel-editor v-model="jsondata" @select="onSelect">
    ...
    </vue-excel-editor>
</template>
methods: {
    onSelect (selectedRows) {
      console.log(selectedRows)
    }
}

You may also want to watch the selected records count for displaying the action buttons. For example:

<vue-excel-editor v-model:selected-count="count">
...
</vue-excel-editor>

<button v-show="showDeleteAction"> Delete </button>
<button v-show="showSendEmailInvitationAction"> Invite </button>
<button v-show="showSendBirthdayGreetingAction"> Greeting </button>
data () {
    return {
        count: 0
    }
}
computed: {
    showDeleteAction () {
        return this.count > 0  // Show if any records selected
    },
    showSendEmailInvitationAction () {
        return this.count === 1  // Show if single record is selected
    },
    showSendBirthdayGreetingAction () {
        // Show only if any selected people birthday matched today
        if (this.count > 0) {
            return this.$refs.grid.getSelectedRecords().filter(item => item.birth === today).length > 0
        else
            return false
    }
}

Do something when user change a cell content

You could achieve this by placing the method in change prop

<vue-excel-column field="name" label="Name" type="string" width="150px" :change="onBeforeNameChange" />
<vue-excel-column field="phone" label="Contact" type="string" width="130px" :change="onBeforePhoneChange" />
<vue-excel-column field="birth" label="Date Of Birth" type="date" width="80px" :change="onBeforeBirthChange" />
methods: {
    onBeforeNameChange (...args) {
        console.log(...args)  // show all the arguments: newVal, oldVal, oldRow, field
    },
    onBeforePhoneChange (newVal) {
        // This example demonstrate how to ensure the uniqueness of the phone number
        if (this.jsondata.findIndex(row => row.phone === newVal) >= 0)
            return false  // return false to reject the update
    },
    onBeforeBirthChange (newVal, oldVal, row) {
        row.age = moment().diff(newVal, 'years')  // calculate the age if birth is changed
    }
}

The change function can return a promise.

<vue-excel-column field="phone" label="Contact" type="string" width="130px" :change="onBeforePhoneChange" />
methods: {
    onBeforePhoneChange (newVal) {
        return new Promise((done) => {
            axios.post('checkPhoneNumber', {
                    phone: newVal
                })
                .then(done(true))
                .catch((e) => {
                    console.error(e)
                    done(false)
                })
        })
    }
}

However, the promise routine may cause your web page has low performance. I suggest you use a validation prop to show the wrong content in a grid with the validation error.

Filter + Footer Rows

Specified filter-row prop to show filter row

<vue-excel-editor v-model="jsondata" filter-row>

If you don't want to show the footer, specified the no-footer prop

<vue-excel-editor v-model="jsondata" no-footer filter-row>

Filter + Footer Rows

Filtering

The filtering is one of the focusing features. It supports regular expression and windows wild card syntax.

Filtering

Component supports the prefx likes <, >, =, >=, <=, <>, ~ (regular expression) and wild-card * and ? symbol. Examples: | Example | Description | | :--- | :--- | | abc | The values contain ABC | | abc* | The values start by ABC | | abc | The values end by ABC | | =abc | The values equal to ABC | | <>abc | The values do not equal to ABC | | >= 100 | The values are greater or equal to 100 | | < 0 | The values are smaller than 0 | | po-185?? | The values start from PO-18 and the 3rd-last char is 5 | | = | The values are empty | | ~. | The values are not empty | | ~.tpx[ ]+ck | The values have TPX and CK text and they have spaces in between | | ~[ ] | The values contain space | | ~^so|ary$ | The values start by SO or end by ARY | | ~[ ]+$|^[ ]+ | The values start or end by spaces | | ~^[^ ]$ | The values have no space |

Note that all filters are case-insensitive.

Sorting

Sorting

It is possible to assign custom sorting function for specified column:

<vue-excel-column field="birth" label="Date Of Birth" type="date" width="80px" :sort="sortingBirth" />
const moment = require('moment')

methods: {
    sortingBirth (a, b) {
        return moment(a).diff(moment(b), 'days')
    }
}

Autocomplete

When user enters text in cell and holds a second, component will show 10 matched occurences for user to choose. Autocomplete

Options

<vue-excel-column field="gender" label="Gender" type="select" width="50px" :options="['F','M','U']" />

Specified the type = "select" for Options column. This works like Autocomplete, but the list is provided and fixed. Options

Map

The "map" typed column is the same as "select" typed column, but the record value is not the same as the display text. The options prop required to provide the mapping of the value and text.

<vue-excel-column field="gender" label="Gender" type="map" width="50px" :options="{M:'Male','F':'Female','U':'Unknown'}" />

Map

Select

Click the row label to select the row. The component supports Excel-style which using Shift-click and Ctrl-click (Meta for OSX) combination to select multiple rows. You may also interested in the free-select prop to select the multiple rows without holding the shift key.

Select

Multi-Update

When the user updates any cell during select multiple rows, all cells of the same column of those selected rows will be updated.

Multi-Update

Sticky column

<vue-excel-column field="user" label="User ID" type="string" width="80px" key-field sticky />

Specified "sticky" means the specified column is frozen when horizontal scrolling. Most likely sticky columns are leftmost.

Paging

<vue-excel-editor v-model="jsondata" autocomplete filter-row>
...
</vue-excel-editor>

To gain better performance, I suggest you use paging by not specify "no-paging" prop. The component automatically calculates the page size once detecting the outer boundary resized. If you want to set the page size manually, try the prop "page". If more than 1 page is detected, the footer (horizontal scroll bar) will show the first/previous/next/last links for page navigation. You may customize these links by "localized-label" prop.

Validation

The following is for column validation.

<vue-excel-column field="phone" label="Contact" type="string" width="130px" :validate="validPhoneNum" />
methods: {
    validPhoneNum (content, oldContent, record, field) {
        if (content === '') return 'Mandatory field'
        if (!/^[0-9]{1}-[0-9]{3}-[0-9]{7}$/.test(content)) return 'Invalid Phone Number'
        return '' // return empty string if there is no error
    }
}

Validation

The following is for row validation. It will be triggered for any changes. The error message will be shown at number column.

<vue-excel-editor :validate="validWholeRecord">
methods: {
    validWholeRecord (content, oldContent, record, field) {
        if (record.age !== moment().diff(record.birth, 'years')) return 'The age and birth do not match'
        return '' // return empty string if there is no error
    }
}

You may want to receive the validation error. Component will emit an event "validation-error" if row or field validation error changed.

<vue-excel-editor @validate-error="logValidationError">
methods: {
    logValidationError (error, row, field) {
        // For row validation, the field argument will be null value
        console.log(error, row, field)
    }
}

Summary

<vue-excel-column field="age" label="Age" type="number" width="70px" summary="sum" />

Summary

Summary prop supports "sum", "min", "max", "avg" and "count".

Note that "count" will instruct the component to count the cell which hold the following condition
Number: >0
String: non-empty
Check: "Y", "1" or "T"
DateTime: at or later than the current time

Use this with care. The summary calculation eats resource, so it only calculates when the number of records changed (i.e. New, delete, filter). It does not recalculate if user changes the cell content. You may trigger the calculation manually by calling calSummary method in the @update event.

Link

This is a nice feature in enterprise applications. Actually, I was learning from SAP UI. When the user holds the function key (Alt-key here) and move the mouse over the cell content, the text will show as a link. If user clicks on the link, your custom function will be triggered. The following example shows how to route to the user profile page by clicking on the name column cell.

<vue-excel-column field="name" label="Name" type="string" width="150px" :link="routeToUserFunc" :is-link="showLinkOrString" />
methods: {
    // Hold Alt Key and click on any name, program will route to the page "User Profile"
    routeToUserFunc (content, record) {
        this.$router.push(`/user/${record.user}`)
    },
    showLinkOrString(record) {
        return record.gender === 'M' // Only gender M show the link
    }
}

All links will be set as readonly by default.

Text/Value conversion

Sometimes displaying text and the store value will be different. In order to deal with this, you could use column properties to-text and to-value.

<vue-excel-column field="phone" label="Contact" type="string" width="130px" :to-text="phoneToText" :to-value="phoneToVal" />
methods: {
    phoneToText (val) {
        // convert number to hyphenated i.e. 14152345678 => 1-415-2345678
        return val.replace(/^(.)(...)(.*)$/, '$1-$2-$3')
    },
    phoneToVal (text) {
        // convert hyphenated text to number i.e. 1-415-2345678 => 14152345678
        return text.replace(/-/g, '')
    },
}

Badge

Sometimes we want to display the text in badge style.

<vue-excel-column field="user" label="User ID" type="badge" width="80px" :bg-color="badgeColor" />
methods: {
    badgeColor (rec) {
        return 'blue'
    }
}

All badge will be set as readonly by default.

Action

Sometimes we want to display the list of actions for record processing, such as Edit/Remove.

<vue-excel-column field="do" label="Action" type="action" :options="['Edit', 'Remove']" width="100px" :change="doAction" placeholder="Action" />
methods: {
    doAction (rec) {
        if (rec.do === 'Edit')
            // do Edit process
        else if (rec.do === 'Remove')
            // do Remove process
    }
}

All action will be set as non-readonly to make it selectable. The component will assign a to-text function to return empty string. If you want to show a static text in cell, you could use placeholder prop.

Password

For password editing:

<vue-excel-column type="password" field="pwd" label="Password" width="90px" />

Hide Duplication

If a column set to hide-duplicaiton, the component will compare the cell content with the above content and hide it by setting to transparent color and remove the border-top. It also affects the next column which also set to hide-duplication. Here is an example:

  <vue-excel-editor v-model="jsondata" filter-row>
    <vue-excel-column type="map"      field="gender" width="80px"  label="Gender" :options="{M: 'Male', F: 'Female'}" hide-duplicate />
    <vue-excel-column type="number"   field="age"    width="60px"  label="Age" summary="avg" hide-duplicate />
    <vue-excel-column type="badge"    field="user"   width="75px"  label="User" :bgcolor="badgeColor" />
    <vue-excel-column type="string"   field="name"   width="150px" label="Name" :link="linkClick" :is-link="isLink" />
    <vue-excel-column type="string"   field="phone"  width="160px" label="Contact" />
    <vue-excel-column type="password" field="pwd"    width="90px"  label="Password" />
    <vue-excel-column type="date"     field="birth"  width="115px" label="Date Of Birth" />
    <vue-excel-column type="action"   field="action" width="75px"  label="#" :options="['Edit', 'Remove']" :change="doAction" placeholder="Action" />
  </vue-excel-editor>

Hide Duplication

All field set to hide duplication will be set as readonly by default.

Grouping

Grouping is a little bit tricky. Sometimes we want to show the first row of a set of record and hide the rest of the row based on the cell value. For example, we want to group the gender by M and F and the first record are the header that holds the statistics of each group. If this is the case, you could use grouping attribute. For example:

  <vue-excel-editor ref="editor" v-if="!hide" v-model="jsondata" filter-row v-model:selected-count="count">
    <vue-excel-column type="string"   field="region" width="80px"  label="Group1" grouping="collapse" />
    <vue-excel-column type="string"   field="area"   width="80px"  label="Group2" grouping="collapse" />
    <vue-excel-column type="map"      field="gender" width="80px"  label="Gender" :options="{M: 'Male', F: 'Female'}" :change="genderChange" />
    <vue-excel-column type="number"   field="age"    width="60px"  label="Age" :validate="validateAge" summary="avg" />
    <vue-excel-column type="badge"    field="user"   width="75px"  label="User" :bgcolor="badgeColor" />
    <vue-excel-column type="string"   field="name"   width="150px" label="Name" :link="linkClick" :isLink="isLink" />
    <vue-excel-column type="string"   field="phone"  width="160px" label="Contact" :to-text="toTextPasswd"/>
    <vue-excel-column type="password" field="pwd"    width="90px"  label="Password" />
    <vue-excel-column type="date"     field="birth"  width="115px" label="Date Of Birth" />
    <vue-excel-column type="action"   field="action" width="75px"  label="#" :options="['Edit', 'Remove']" :change="doAction" placeholder="Action" />
  </vue-excel-editor>
  jsondata = [
    {region: 'US', area: 'AZ', user: "hc", name: "Harry Cole", phone: "1-415-2345678", gender: "M", age: 25, birth: "1997-07-01"},
    {region: 'US', area: 'AZ', user: "sm", name: "Simon Minolta", phone: "1-123-7675682", gender: "M", age: 25, birth: "1999-11-12"},
    {region: 'US', area: 'CL', user: "ra", name: "Rachael Amy", phone: "1-456-9981212", gender: "F", age: 19, birth: "2000-06-11"},
    {region: 'US', area: 'CL', user: "ag", name: "Mary George", phone: "1-556-1245684", gender: "F", age: 19, birth: "2002-08-01"},
    {region: 'CN', area: 'GZ', user: "kl", name: "Kenny Linus", phone: "1-891-2345685", gender: "F", age: 29, birth: "1990-09-01"}
  ])

The above shows the way in specifying 2 groups (region + area). Both group set to collapse by default.

Grouping

All field set to be grouping will be set as readonly and hide duplication by default.

Localization

The developer may override the default values through localized-label prop.

<template>
    <vue-excel-editor v-model="jsondata" :localized-label="myLabels">
    ...
    </vue-excel-editor>
</template>
data: {
    myLabels = {
        footerLeft: (top, bottom, total) => `Record ${top} to ${bottom} of ${total}`,
        first: 'First',
        previous: 'Previous',
        next: 'Next',

        listFirstNValuesOnly: n => `List first ${n} values only`,
        apply: 'Apply',
        noRecordIsRead: 'No record is read',

        invalidInputValue: 'Invalid input value',
        missingKeyColumn: 'Missing key column',
