Example

      - name: Generate build badge
        uses: DARMA-tasking/badge-generator@master
        with:
          names: |
            vt-build-amd64-alpine-3-16-clang-cpp
            vt-build-amd64-ubuntu-20-04-gcc-9-cuda-12-2-0-cpp
            vt-build-amd64-ubuntu-20-04-gcc-10-openmpi-cpp-spack
            vt-build-amd64-ubuntu-22-04-gcc-12-cpp
          results: |
            success
            cancelled
            failure
            failure
          github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

This will generate and commit to wiki four badges:

Then we can reference those badges using the link: https://github.com/DARMA-tasking/badge-generator/wiki/DARMA-tasking/{repository}/{workflow_name}-badge.svg

(NOTE: github_token has to be a token that grants wiki read/write permissions to badge-generator repository)
