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 🙏

npm deps test coverage

npm i -D webpack-multilang-i18n-plugin

This plugin is an adaptation of the original i18n Webpack plugin for creating bundles with translations baked in. This plugin solves the problem of slow compilation times for multiple languages by moving the translation process later in the Webpack compilation.

In order to leverage the functionality of this plugin, at least one of your output filenames will need to use the substitution token [language] (in a manner similar to other tokens explained here). For example, you might have an output definition that looks like the following:

output: {
  path: utils.resolvePath('public/js/dist'),
  filename: `[name].[language].js`
}

In this particular case, if you run the plugin with languages en and fr, you will end up with files [name].en.js and [name].fr.js for each of the generated assets.

plugins: [
  ...
  new I18nPlugin(localizationObj, optionsObj)
],
  • localizationObj: a multi-language dictionary, keyed by language code, each containing it's own key/value dictionary, ex. {"en": {"string1": "Welcome", "string2": "Goodbye"}, "fr": {"string1": "Bienvenue", "string2": "Au revior"}}
  • optionsObj.functionName: the default value is __, you can change it to other function name.
  • optionsObj.failOnMissing: the default value is false, which will show a warning message, if the mapping text cannot be found. If set to true, the message will be an error message.
  • optionsObj.hideMessage: the default value is false, which will show the warning/error message. If set to true, the message will be hidden.

The plugin operates by appending multiple files to each chunk, which can cause some conflicts with the Webpack manifest plugin. The solution is to use the filter option to manually generate multiple manifests:

config.plugins = { new MultiLangPlugin(localizationObj) };
Object.keys(localizationObj).forEach((lang) => {
    config.plugins.push(new ManifestPlugin({
        fileName: `manifest.${lang}.json`,
        filter: file => file.path.indexOf(`.${lang}.`) >= 0,
    }));
});
