A high-performance badge rendering engine written in Rust, supporting SVG output and font parsing. This project is designed for developers and services that require fast, customizable, and reliable badge generation.

🟢 Bitwise-Identical SVG Output

Not only do we pursue pixel-level similarity, but we also guarantee that the generated SVG string is bitwise-identical to the output returned by shields.io for the same parameters. This ensures absolute compatibility and consistency for all use cases.

⚡️ Fast & Efficient

Over 10x faster than the Node.js badge-maker library, this Rust implementation is optimized for speed and efficiency. It can generate badges in microseconds, making it suitable for high-performance applications and services.

🎨 Supported All Styles & Logos

We support all major badge styles: flat, flat-square, plastic, social and for-the-badge. Each style can be customized with various properties such as label, message, color, logo, and more. You can easily use Simple Icons slugs to set logos for your badges, and we also support custom logos with SVG strings.

cargo add shields

The library provides a chainable API for customizing badges. You can set the label, message, color, and other properties using method chaining:

use shields::builder::Badge;
fn main() {
    // Simple flat badge
    let badge = Badge::flat().label("test").message("passing").build();
    println!("{}", badge);
    // Flat badge with custom colors
    let badge = Badge::plastic()
        .label("version")
        .message("1.0.0")
        .label_color("#555")
        .message_color("#4c1")
        .build();
    println!("{}", badge);
    // Plastic badge with logo
    let badge = Badge::social()
        .label("github")
        .message("stars")
        .logo("github")
        .link("https://github.com/user/repo")
        .extra_link("https://github.com/user/repo/stargazers")
        .build();
    println!("{}", badge);
}
