Sounds good to me! The visual is actually quite good with different badges, 
because you do get a sense which version of the package you get on which 
version of julia.

I'm not sure to be honest. We've never had one badge to aggregate it, I think 
it'd be too much to cram into a badge.

I'm not sure I'll ever test 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 simultaneously.

I guess I'll just provide the results, and people can select what they think is 
relevant to users.

Is the idea that we have a separate badge for every julia version now, i.e. 
very soon three? Or is there also one badge that shows the aggregated 
information?

pkg.julialang.org badge URL change

 

Hi all,

 

In an effort to prepare for a reality where Julia 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5-dev will 
all be in the wild simultaneously, I had to change the PackageEvaluator badge 
URL scheme. I also took the opportunity to change the badge design to be more 
informative about what its showing exactly.

 

I've fixed about ~100 package READMEs, but there will be many more out there.

To fix your README, or to add the badges, simply look up you package on 
pkg.julialang.org <http://pkg.julialang.org>  and click "Get permalink/badge" 
for the Markdown. Your badge may still work, depending on when you last updated 
it, but the link will almost surely be out-of-date (but won't give a 404).

 

What is PackageEvaluator, you may ask? See 
https://github.com/IainNZ/PackageEvaluator.jl for more info.

 

Thanks,
Iain

 

PS: we're not far from 700 registered packages!
