  1. Using find-up to search files. Now you can use this with monorepos too.

Prerequisites

Node >= 10.x.x

See the demo running here

Why

1. Copy pasting / creating badges on shields.io such a robotic job.
2. Some of the default provided badges lacks of some of the accessibility constraint. White on green does not meet the required contrast ratio. See the badge below for example it will be difficult for low vision people to read it

How to use

Install the cli

npm i -g git-auto-badger

or

yarn add -g git-auto-badger

Add placeholder to your markdown

Add following markdown comment where you want the badges to appear

[//]: <> (start placeholder for auto-badger)

Run the cli

then run following in your project root directory

npx auto-badger

And whoo hoo you are done. All the necessary badges are added to your markdown.

How it works?

1. It looks for different file in your project root directory. To decide what tools are you using. And generates badges based on it.

   e.g. If you have .travis.yml then it assumes you are using travis for CI/CD and it creates a dynamic badge for travis latest build status
   
   or
   
   if you have appveyor.yml then it assumes you are using appveyor for CI/CD and it creates a dynamic badge for appveyor latest build status

Defaults

Badge Type	Default
Size	Bundle phobia (if browser only package)
Size	package phobia (if node only package e.g cli)
