RDocumentation badges not working

riccardoporreca opened this issue · 3 comments

Similar to what happened in #63, badges are not working


e.g. https://www.rdocumentation.org/badges/version/XLConnect

Oops, that page doesn't exist


![Alt text if the badge is broken](https://www.rdocumentation.org/badges/version/XLConnect)

An update on this: I noticed the badges work from https://api.rdocumentation.org/, e.g.

https://api.rdocumentation.org/badges/version/XLConnect

so that

![Alt text if the badge is broken](https://api.rdocumentation.org/badges/version/XLConnect)

is rendered correctly as

@ddmkr would you recommend using https://api.rdocumentation.org/ instead of https://www.rdocumentation.org/ for badges as the latter seems to be subject to some sort of disruption?

Current version of Rdocumentation2.0 does not use badges

Still, it seems to provide badges through an API URL, e.g. https://api.rdocumentation.org/badges/version/XLConnect, which might be used elsewhere by package maintainers to link rdocumentation.org. It would be good to know if and when there is an intention to decommission such API URL
