Altmetric Badger

Badger turns data into badges!

A small gem which can generate an Altmetric badge URI from a hash of post types and a score.

NOTE: ALTMETRIC BADGER IS NO LONGER UNDER ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT.

Usage

gem install altmetric_badger

  AltmetricBadger.new(
    score: 123, 
    data: {
      'twitter' => 100,
      'facebook' => 100
    }
  ).to_donut_uri(svg: true)
  # => #<URI::HTTPS:0x007f8641ea75f8 URL:https://altmetric-badges.a.ssl.fastly.net/?style=donut&score=123&types=ttttffff&size=640&svg>

Pretty simple. Available methods are:

#to_donut_uri
#to_bar_uri
#to_pie_uri
#to_helix_uri

And available parameters:

size: (Integer)
svg: (Boolean)
show_score: (Boolean)
ssl: (Boolean)

Note that all flags may not work with all badge types
