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 🙏

vuvuzela Build Status

Simple and non-recursive JSON parse/stringify library.

Goals

  • No recursion
    • Avoids the "too much recursion" or "maximum call stack" errors that the native JSON.parse and JSON.stringify methods may throw if an object is deeply nested.
  • Simplicity
    • No functions-within-functions, just a while loop and a stack.
  • Small footprint
    • ~1 KB minified and gzipped

Description

vuvuzela, courtesy of Berndt Meyer via the Wikipedia page

The vuvuzela is a coarse instrument, but it's lightweight, and it gets the job done.

This module will use up tons of memory, but unlike the native JSON methods or json3, it'll never throw a "maximum call stack size exceeded" exception. Your JSON objects can be as deeply nested as you like.

This is not a streaming library, so unlike oboe/clarinet, it reads the whole thing into memory at once. It's also quite a bit slower than the native JSON methods. Use at your own risk!

Usage

$ npm install vuvuzela
var vuvuzela = require('vuvuzela')

var asString = vuvuzela.stringify({hello: 'world'}); // '{"hello":"world"}'

var asJson = vuvuzela.parse('{"hello": "world"}'); // {hello: 'world'}

Browser builds are available in the dist/ folder. They'll create a window.vuvuzela object you can use.

Limitations

At the top level, it will currently only parse objects and arrays, not arbitrary values like booleans, strings, numbers, and null.

Testing

Unit tests:

$ npm test

Coverage tests:

$ npm run coverage

Building

$ npm run build
