Deploy status and lock badges for your app

I recently added a few badges that I wanted for collaboration to Shipyrd for a few open and closed-source projects. There are all kinds of badges/shields available for your app, and particularly for open-source projects. So many options, really.

I wanted to focus on a few high-level badges that help your team see your application’s deployment status by bubbling it up wherever you reference it most often.

So I created a new badge that shows when an application was last deployed and by whom. You can also add this to a hosted open-source project so you can let your users know when your app was last deployed without exposing anything about the deployment pipeline publicly.

The other badge I added is a lock status badge, so you can easily see if an environment is locked from wherever your README/wikis live. Within Shipyrd, you can lock an environment when you’re working on a deploy to let your team know, and also block someone else from trying to deploy over you.

You can find these new badges within Shipyrd within any of your destinations(environments) under the new badges section. There’s a copy to clipboard button for the markdown content, or you can grab just the image URL.
