Socket researchers found several malicious npm packages typosquatting Chalk and Chokidar, targeting Node.js developers with kill switches and data theft.
@rpl/badge-up
Advanced tools
A module that produces hot badges without the need of Cairo (forked from the original badge-up package to update vulnerable npm deps)
The only changes applied to the original npm package are:
svgo
libraryThis is a simple library that generates SVG badges without Cairo.
npm install badge-up
var badge = require('badge-up');
badge('batman', 'component', badge.colors.green, function (error, svg) {
// some callback
});

The color argument can be a CSS color, or one of the specially named colors
found in badge.colors
.
With this API you can create arbitrary badges with an arbitrary number of sections.
Each section is an array. The first element is the text to show, and the rest of the (optional) elements are attributes to apply to the text. If there are no attributes then a single string (instead of an array of one element) can be passed instead.
The following attributes are supported:
{hex}{hex}{hex}{hex}{hex}{hex}
six hexadecimal characters or {css-color-name}
a named CSS color,
either of which is used to color the sections{{hex}{hex}{hex}{hex}{hex}{hex}}
six hexadecimal characters or s{css-color-name}
a named CSS color,
either of which is used to color stroke the section, e.g. s{d3d3d3}
The default color for the first section is 696969
and d3d3d3
for subsequent sections.
Any section can have mulitple lines by putting newlines in its text.
var badge = require('badge-up');
var sections = [
'foo/far;fun',
[ 'bar\nbaz', 'orange'],
[ 'mork "mindy"', 'olive', 's{white}'],
[ '<∀>', 'moccasin']
];
badge.v2(sections, function (error, svg) {
// some callback
});
