## Announcements

- 06 Mar 2021
  1. Added -e/--exclude option to opt out of some badges
- 08 Nov 2020
  1.  Added -p option for passing custom path to your markdown
- 01 Nov 2020
  1.  Using meow and update notifier
  2.  Removing accidentally added npm package. A total blunder :(
- 18 Oct 2020
  1.  Using find-up to search files. Now you can use this with monorepos too.

## Prerequisites

Node >= 10.x.x

<br/>

## See the demo running here

[![demo](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/technikhil314/my-static-assets/master/terminal-casts/auto-badger.svg)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/technikhil314/my-static-assets/master/terminal-casts/auto-badger.svg)

<br/>

## Why

1. Copy pasting / creating badges on [shields.io](https://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

[![Build Status](https://github.com/technikhil314/angular-components/workflows/build/badge.svg?branch=master)](https://github.com/technikhil314/angular-components/actions)

<br/>

### Install the cli

```
npm i -g git-auto-badger

or

yarn add -g git-auto-badger

Add following markdown comment where you want the badges to appear

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

### 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
   <br/>
   <br/>
   or
   <br/>
   <br/>
   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) |
