👾 A library to simulate a troll computer virus inside a website

Memz.js

Setting up ⬇️

Package Managers

Install the NPM package using your package manager.

# npm
npm install @skwalexe/memz

# yarn
yarn add @skwalexe/memz

Then import the library.

// For CommonJS
const Memz = require('@skwalexe/memz')

// For ES Modules
import Memz from '@skwalexe/memz'

Import with <script> tag

If you use this method, the library will be available globally as Memz.

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@skwalexe/[email protected]/dist/memz.umd.js"></script>

Using this library 📦

This library exports a Memz class which acccepts the following parameters:

• assetsUrl / required: Memz needs to load remote assets such as css stylesheets, sounds, and images, which you can host on your own servers. This parameter is used to tell Memz where it can find these assets. You must provide a base url, to which Memz will just append the requested asset's file name. If you don't want to host the assets yourself, you can use JSDelivr like in the example below.

const mmz = Memz('https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/SkwalExe/[email protected]/src/assets/')

Once you instanciated the Memz class, it exposes the follwing methods:

• mmz.all(): Run all the effects listed below at once.
• mmz.changeCursor(): Change the mouse cursor randomly very fast.
• mmz.invertColors(): Randomly invert the colors on the entire page.
• mmz.messageBoxes(): Randomly show windows-like dialogue boxes, with the original messages.
• mmz.rotateScreen(): Change the orientation of the webpage randomly.
• mmz.floatingIcons(): Show windows error/warning icons following the cursor when it moves.
• mmz.computerSounds(): Randomly play windows sounds (alert, warning, error...).

mmz.all()

This method will run all the effects listed above at once. It doesn't use any parameters and doesn't return anything.

General Info About the Project 📖

This is a simple library that can create Windows message boxes on a web page. It uses the following technologies for the development process and for the build pipeline:

• TypeScript for typechecking.
• Babel.js for creating polyfills (browser retro-compatiblity).
  • Node that we will only create polyfills for the final UMD bundle, and not for the CJS/ESM builds because creating polyfills is in my opinion the responsability of the library users.
• Rollup for UMD bundle generation.
• ESLint for linting.
• Prettier.js for formatting.
• WinMB.js for Windows-like message boxes

This library uses pnpm as a package manager. You can install it with:

sudo npm install -g pnpm

Setting up the development environment 🖥️

• Fork this repository to your own GitHub account.
• Clone your fork locally.

git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/Memz.js
cd ./Memz.js

• Install devDependencies

pnpm install

• Run the serve script to start a local development server on port 10001
  • This will continuously rebuild the UMD bundle and reload the page.

pnpm run serve

• Open the local development server on https://localhost:10001/ and open the project in your IDE.

Creating a pull request 👍

If you'd like to contribute, please open an empty pull request and provide an explanation of your proposed changes. Once I approve it, you can begin your work. It's always disheartening to reject a pull request after someone has invested a lot of time and effort into it. 😿

• Create a branch for your contribution

git checkout -b my-new-feature

• When you finished your changes, you must check your code's formatting and linting and fix all the errors.

pnpm run lint:fix # check for linting errors
pnpm run check-types # check for type errors
pnpm run format # comply with formatting rules

• After that, add your changes to CHANGELOG.md and update the README if needed.

• Do not increment the module version yourself, the maintainer will do it.

• Then, you can commit your work and push to your fork.

git add --all 
git commit -m "Added a new feature"
git push -u origin my-new-feature

• Finally, you can create your pull request from your fork repo's github page.
