* Removes the useless horizontal scrollbar. It appears due to `100vw` but since there is a vertical scrollbar it has only `100vw - scrollbar width` of width. * Badge indicating whether type definitions is included with package, in separate package or missing at all. * feat(types badge): Renamed typings to types; fix(types badge): Use branded TS color as the backing of badge; |

Badgen Service
Home of badgen.net, fast badge generating service.
The Badgen Story
That's a service, that's a library, hooorey! - @tunnckoCore
Finally something to replace http://shields.io - @EGOIST
Epic work on Badgen! Porting the @dependabot badges over to it now. ⚡️ - @greybaker
The badgen library was born as an exploration of "is it possible to generate badge SVG markup directly with JavaScript (without using pdfkit/canvas/puppeteer to measure text length)?". The result is better than I expected, Verdana (the de-facto font for badges) text width can be calculated precisely with a prebuilt char-width-table, even no need to worry about kerning 🤯
Then, logically, Badgen Service was born. I had a good time with shields.io, but as time goes by Shields gets slower, leaves more and more broken badges in READMEs. Badgen is trying to be a fast alternative with simplicity and flexibility. Its codebase is simple (2K LoCs vs Shields' 22K LoCs), well structured and fun to develop - it is pretty easy to add badge(s) for new service(s).
In the beginning, I was considering both Now and Google Cloud Functions. Then Zeit announced Now CDN on the same day as badgen.now.sh (the PoC of Badgen Service)'s reveal, what a fate! Cloudflare powered Now CDN is a perfect choice for such service, caching and scalability in simplicity. Badgen is the fastest possible badge generating service out there. It's fast, it's reliable, it's globally distributed and cached, thanks to Now.
At the time of badgen.now.sh's reveal, it had only four live badges as demonstrations. Since then, thanks to awesome people's help, Badgen keeps getting better at a fast pace. Welcome to join us, let's build the best badge service in the universe 🔥
Anatomy
- Written in TypeScript
- Using badgen library to generate svg on the fly
- Two styles
- https://badgen.net - classic style badges
- https://flat.badgen.net - flat & square style badges
- Two badge types
- static badge - URL defined badge (label, status, color)
- live badge - Show live status from 3rd party services
- Builtin Icons & External Icon Support
- see badgen-icons
- Docker image amio/badgen
Developing
start dev server
npm run dev
run with docker
docker run -p 3000:3000 amio/badgen
Add Live Badge
If a service you wish to have is still missing here, we welcome new contributions. Basically, you need to add a file in endpoints/[name-of-service].ts and that's it. Take /crates as an example:
- endpoints/crates.ts - main function for crates badges
- libs/badge-list.ts - contains index of all live badges
To ensure that your addition is working correctly, start the development server with npm run dev.
NOTES
-
You can create live badge without touching badgen.net's code. Checkout docs for /runkit or /https.
-
The /runkit support would be super handy for prototyping a new live badge.
Add Icon
You can contribute icons to badgen-icons. Please make sure new icon is optimized using svgomg.
Tracking Policy
Badgen use Sentry to collect errors for improving service, use Google Analytics on doc pages (home, /github, /packagephobia, etc.) to understand overall usage.
Badgen do not collect any identifying information.
