Advanced badges for your projects using Travis or Sauce Labs.

Badges

Let's start off by looking at some various badges in action!

File size for any file on GitHub or npm

• react-fast-compare library size from GitHub.

  

• victory size (gz) from npm.

  

Browser support matrix from Sauce Labs

• inferno Sauce Labs CI matrix.

  

Beautiful and customizable!

• ?labels=none

  

• ?logos=none

  

• ?logos=none&labels=longName

  

Using something other than Sauce Labs? Just construct a URL that manually codes the results from your browser tests:

• browsers?firefox=20,26&iexplore=!8,-9,10

  

Web Service

The live service is deployed at https://badges.formidable.com/

You may also run your own instance using this package. See the Deployment section of the DEVELOPMENT.md document.

Endpoints

/browsers

Render browser matrix badge based on support specified in the query parameters, for cases where your testing is done with a service other than Sauce Labs (otherwise use the /sauce endpoint), or you don’t have CI and just want to show your intended support.

Query parameters

• android, firefox, googlechrome, iexplore, ipad, iphone, microsoftedge, opera, safari

  A comma-separated list of version numbers that were tested for the given browser, e.g. firefox=20,26.

  Prefix a version number to indicate status:

  • + or no prefix: Passed.
  • -: Failed.
  • !: Error.

• logos, labels, versionDivider, style

  Same as the /sauce/:user endpoint below.

/sauce/:user

Render browser support matrix badge for the Sauce Labs account at :user.

Query parameters

• build

  Build number, it should match the build string of one or more jobs. By default, try to find the most recent build. The build can be from any CI service, not just Travis.

  Sauce Labs’ API doesn’t allow filtering by build, so finding the jobs for a build can be a bit of a hassle:

  • If the requested build is not in the first 500 results returned by the API, then you should specify from and to to limit the query window to the time span of the build.
  • If no from is given, then stop fetching more jobs from the API when a different build number is encountered.

  Jobs with a null value for build are never included.

• name

  Name filter, it should match a whitespace separated substring in the name of one or more jobs. Only jobs matching the filter will be included in the result.

• tag

  Tag filter, it should match a string in the tags array of one or more jobs. Only jobs matching the filter will be included in the result.

• from

  Start time (Unix epoch) of the window in which to find jobs. Passed along to the Sauce Labs API.

• to

  End time (Unix epoch) of the window in which to find jobs. Passed along to the Sauce Labs API.

• skip

  Number of initial jobs to skip. Passed along to the Sauce Labs API.

• source

  Data source from which to render results, defaults to svg.

  • api: Fetch results from the Sauce Labs API. This allows you to specify any of the above query parameters for filtering jobs.
  • svg: Fetch Sauce Labs’ own browser matrix SVG widget and transform it into our slimmer, beautified version. If you aren’t using any of the options above, and just want the same results as their own widget would render, use this. If you try specifying any of the options above, the server will automatically change source to api. This is probably much faster than talking to the API, but it’s a bit more fragile since their SVG output could change.

• logos

  How to render browser logos, defaults to inside.

  • inside or true: Show logos in the label part of the badge.
  • none or false: Don’t show logos.

• labels

  How to render browser labels, defaults to shortName.

  • shortName or true: Short names, e.g. "Chrome", "FF", "IE".
  • name: Medium names, e.g. "Chrome", "Firefox", "Internet Explorer".
  • longName: Long names, e.g. "Google Chrome", "Mozilla Firefox", "Microsoft Internet Explorer".
  • sauceName: Browser identifiers used by Sauce Labs, e.g. "googlechrome", "firefox", "iexplore".
  • none or false: Don’t show labels.

• versionDivider

  How to render the divider between browser version numbers, defaults to none.

  • none or false: Don’t show a divider.
  • line or true: Show a subtle beveled line between version numbers.

• style

  Badge style, defaults to flat. Styles match shields.io.

  • flat: Round and smooth.
  • flat-square: Square and flat.

/size/:source/:path

Render a file size badge for any file on GitHub or npm.

• :source can be github or npm.
• :path can be any valid raw.githubusercontent.com or unpkg.com path (when :source is github or npm, respectively).

Query parameters

• gzip

  Whether to show the gzip-compressed size, defaults to false.

  • true: Show compressed size.
  • false: Show uncompressed size.

• label

  Custom badge label, by default it will be "size" or "size (gzip)".

• color

  Color name or value to pass along to shields.io, defaults to brightgreen. Note that the default may change to blue in the future, as is somewhat conventional for purely informational, non-qualitative badges like this one.

• style

  Style to pass along to shields.io.

/travis/:user/:repo

Render build status badge for the Travis project at :user/:repo, counting only build jobs that match the given env filter.

The default endpoint used to communicate with the Travis API is determined by the server’s TRAVIS_ENDPOINT environment variable. You can force the public api.travis-ci.com or api.travis-ci.org endpoints by beginning the URL with /travis.com or /travis.org, respectively.

Query parameters

• branch

  Git branch, defaults to master.

• env

  Environment filter, it should match a VAR=value line in the env section of your build matrix. All jobs in the build matching the filter will be aggregated into one final status, similar to how Travis determines an overall build status. If no filter is given, all jobs in the build are included (even if they are Allowed Failures).

• label

  Text label to render on the left side of the badge, defaults to the repo name.

• style

  Style to pass along to shields.io.

/travis/:user/:repo/sauce/:sauceUser

Render browser support matrix badge for the Travis project at :user/:repo, getting Sauce Labs results from :sauceUser (defaults to :user).

You can also use the /sauce/:user endpoint, but this way ensures that we only consider Sauce Labs jobs that match up with the latest Travis build number for the given branch, and also makes the correct jobs easier to find since Travis provides the time span of the build.

The default endpoint used to communicate with the Travis API is determined by the server’s TRAVIS_ENDPOINT environment variable. You can force the public api.travis-ci.com or api.travis-ci.org endpoints by beginning the URL with /travis.com or /travis.org, respectively.

Query parameters

• branch

  Git branch of the Travis build, defaults to master.

• name, tag, logos, labels, versionDivider, style

  Same as the /sauce/:user endpoint above.
