Badge Management

a simple approach to badge management in any project (nodejs required)

Badges

• Styles: flat, classic (gradient)
• Hooks into single readme (no requirement for a "template" readme file)

Install NPM

npm install --save-dev badge-management

How to setup

1. Include project to your package.json via npm install --save-dev badge-management

2. Add to your package.json

   {
     "badges": {
       "injectors": {
         "README.md": [
           {
             "definitions": [
               "repository",
               "version"
             ]
           }
         ]
       },
       "definitions": {
         "version": {
           "type": "package_version"
         },
         "repository": {
           "type": "package_repository_url"
         }
       }
     }
   }

   • injectors are not required and can be removed.
   • definitions requires at least 1 entry.

3. If injectors is not defined skip to step 4.

   • In each file your injecting add these tags where you want the render to happen.

   [comment_badge_management_start]: <hidden__do_not_remove>
   [comment_badge_management_end]: <hidden__do_not_remove>

4. Create a script wherever you would like with the following contents (for example we picked ./scripts/badges.js.

   require("badge-management").run();

5. Execute that script with node scripts/badges.js to update your badge files and injectors (if defined).
