Sparkbadge

Sparkbadges is a tool for create longitudinal status sparklines for your projects. For example:

trend hist_trend

The sparkline SVGs you create can then be implemented in a badge using a tool such as google/pybadges:

commits build_time

Sparkbadges was heavily influenced and inspired by google/pybadges and the aesthetics of the Shields.io project.

Usage

usage: sparkbadge [-h] [-u UEP] [-t TIMEFRAME] [-m {commits,issues}] [-s SOURCE] [-d DIR]

Generate sparklines for your status badge.

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -u UEP, --uep UEP     The ID or URL-encoded path of the project.
  -t TIMEFRAME, --timeframe TIMEFRAME
                        The timeframe to create sparklines over, inclusive. Format (start year to end year) is "YYYY-YYYY". An example input would be "
                        --timeframe 2017-2020". Currently only years are supported.
  -m {commits,issues}, --metrics {commits,issues}
                        The sparkline to use.
  -s SOURCE, --source SOURCE
                        The source forge (i.e. github or gitlab).
  -d DIR, --dir DIR     The directory to store sparkbadges. Default is .sparkbadge/

Development Roadmap

Our goal is to have a completely platform-independent way to create sparklines for your status badges.

Check out the project outline for a detailed roadmap of planned features.

CLI Tooling

Create longitudinal sparklines, and easily integrate them with status badges.

# Example: commits sparkline (year-to-day)
$ python -m sparkbadge -u klauefer/sparkbadge -m commits
# Outputs a base64-encoded image
>>> data:image/svg+xml;base64,PD94bWwg...

# Pipe the base64-encoded image to pybadges
$ python -m sparkbadge -u klauefer/sparkbadge -m commits \
    | xargs -I {} python -m pybadges --right-image "{}"

Hosting With Post-Commit Hooks

One of the biggest draws of sparkbadge is its ability to integrate right into your project. Simply run sparkbadge init inside a git repository to get started.

$ sparkbadge init

# Creates a .sparkbadge hidden directory with spark.yml config file inside
# See the next section for editing spark.yml
$ ls .sparkbadge
>>> spark.yml

# Also generates a post-commit action workflow
$ ls .github/workflows/sparkbadge.yml

The action workflow sparkbadge.yml runs on every push and adds the most up-to-date metrics to your project.

Easily Extensible

The spark.yml file is used to standardize data across multiple sources. It "describes" where the desired metrics can be found in each API.

If there is hosting service or metric that you feel is missing, no problem! Simply edit the to spark.yml.

Documentation on editing spark.yml can be found here.
