Examples:

  • svg-pypi-dl-day - daily downloads on PyPI
  • svg-pypi-dl-month - monthly downloads on PyPI
  • svg-travis - build status on Travis
  • svg-travis-branch - build status on Travis for a specific branch
  • svg-npm-ver - the version of a Node package
  • svg-gpl3 - link to GNU General Public License, Version 3

Please refer to the snippet guide for a complete list.
