mkdocs-badges

PyPI version License Python versions

This package allows you to add badges to your MkDocs site.

Documentation

This README is just a short intro to the package. For a quick start and detailed information please see the documentation. The documentation is also available in the docs folder of the source code and can be built locally with MkDocs.

A development version built with the latest changes (HEAD commit) can be found at https://mkdocs-badges-dev.six-two.dev/.

Testing

The documentation also serves as a test of the plugin, especially the files under the Tests menu item.

Build the documentation with the latest source code:

pip install . && mkdocs serve -t <theme>

Themes that should work are mkdocs, readthedocs, and material.

Unit tests

The GitHub repository now contains some unit test. You can run them against the current code with the following command (issued in the root directory of the repository):

pip install . && python -m unittest

Known issues

  • At least on iPhones (which only support Safari based engines) only one toast can be shown. After that you need to reload the page to show the same toast again or to show another toast. This seems to be an issue with https://github.com/mlcheng/js-toast/ (used in src/mkdocs_badges/assets/badge.js) which seems no longer maintained.

Notable changes

Version 0.4.4

  • Rewrite - to _ in install badge types. This allows using both brew-formula and brew_formula notation.

Version 0.4.3

  • Changed behavior of the install_badge_data option. Instead of removing the defaults the specified file is merged with them
  • Changed install badge data. Renamed brew to brew_formula and added brew_cask, docker_hub, and docker_ghcr
  • Fixed crash of JavaScript copy code if the text contains a single quote

Version 0.4.2

  • Detect markdown tables even if they have only a single dash in the header. Fixes #4
  • Option to disable warnings (use this at your own risk) by adding disable_warnings: True to the plugin config in your mkdocs.yml

Version 0.4.1

  • Now requires MkDocs 1.5 or newer
  • The included script is now marked as async by default, maybe improving loading times a tiny bit. This can be disabled by adding async: False to the plugin config in your mkdocs.yml

Version 0.4.0

  • Now requires MkDocs 1.4 or newer
  • Updated the layout rules for badges. This should better handle oversized contents (like images or very long texts).

Version 0.3.4

  • Added single element badges

Version 0.3.3

  • Added tags badges

Version 0.3.1

  • Better error handling, fixed a crash
  • Started adding unit tests

Version 0.3.0

  • Breaking changes to the badges formats. See the migration guide
  • Added support for reference links

Version 0.2.0

  • Each badge now needs to be the only thing on its line
  • Badges inside code blocks are no longer parsed
  • The |end at the end of custom badges is no longer neccessary. A simple | is enough. This shorter form is recommended from now on.
  • Documentation is now in the docs folder in the form of a mkdocs website
  • Added link badges
