the online package explorer
Runpkg turns a static file into an interactive and informative browsing experience. It lets you navigate any JavaScript package on npm thanks to unpkg.com, a popular and reliable CDN mirror of the npm registry. You can use this tool to learn more about the inner workings of your project's dependencies; find out how modules work, what they depend on, the size of specific imports as well as other useful metadata.
Features
🔭 Navigable project directory listing- 🎨 Syntax highlighted file contents
📝 Insights through static analysis
Usage
To view a package or module in the browser with runpkg, prepend any unpkg url with: r
. For example:
Source | URL |
---|---|
unpkg | https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/index.js |
runpkg | https://runpkg.com/[email protected]/index.js |
You will be redirected to runpkg which will display the relevant package and file. You can navigate around the package using the 'Package' panel which contains a directory listing. The 'File' tab will also display any information uncovered during static analysis.
Note if browsing a directory then runpkg will ignore the trailing
/
and take you to the entry point.
Development
See CONTRIBUTING.md for instructions on how to run this project locally, contribute, and to see our code of conduct.
Local URLs
As we're not using Netlify to redirect URLs locally, you have to pass in the package or file part of the request in as a search param. Notice the ?
in the local URL. For example:
Source | URL |
---|---|
unpkg | https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/index.js |
localhost | http://localhost:8080/[email protected]/index.js |
