Badge

A compact styled chip for status indicators, counts, and tags. Inherits all Label kwargs but renders with a fixed pill or square shape.

Usage

Variants

'square' (default) gives a rounded rectangle. 'pill' gives a fully rounded capsule shape, common for counts and status tags.

bs.Badge("Square",  accent="primary")
bs.Badge("Pill",    accent="primary", variant="pill")
bs.Badge("99+",     accent="danger",  variant="pill")

Accent colors

bs.Badge("Primary",   accent="primary")
bs.Badge("Secondary", accent="secondary")
bs.Badge("Info",      accent="info")
bs.Badge("Success",   accent="success")
bs.Badge("Warning",   accent="warning")
bs.Badge("Danger",    accent="danger")

In context

Badges are commonly placed inline with other widgets — next to a title, in a table cell, or in a sidebar item.

# Next to a heading
with bs.HStack(gap=8, anchor_items="center"):
    bs.Label("Inbox", font="heading-md")
    bs.Badge("12", accent="primary", variant="pill")

# Status in a data row
with bs.HStack(gap=8, anchor_items="center"):
    bs.Label("Run-A15")
    bs.Badge("Complete", accent="success", variant="pill")
    bs.Badge("2 warnings", accent="warning")

Widget sizing

All widgets accept self-placement kwargs via **kwargs. The parent container determines which options apply — stack-based parents use stack kwargs, grid-based parents use grid kwargs. Unrecognised keys are silently ignored.

Stack

Used inside VStack, HStack, App, and other stack containers.

fill	Fill direction: 'x', 'y', 'both', or 'none'.
expand	Grow to consume extra space in the parent. True or False.
anchor	Alignment when the widget does not fill the available slot: 'n', 's', 'e', 'w', 'center', 'nw', etc.
margin	External spacing in pixels. Accepts an integer (equal on all sides), a 2-tuple (horizontal, vertical), or a 4-tuple (left, top, right, bottom).
margin_x	Horizontal external spacing (left and right). Accepts an integer or a 2-tuple (left, right) for asymmetric spacing. Overrides the horizontal component of margin=.
margin_y	Vertical external spacing (top and bottom). Accepts an integer or a 2-tuple (top, bottom) for asymmetric spacing. Overrides the vertical component of margin=.

Grid

Used inside a Grid container.

row / column	Zero-based row and column indices.
rowspan / columnspan	Number of rows or columns to span.
sticky	Alignment and fill within the grid cell. Any combination of 'n', 's', 'e', 'w' — e.g. 'ew' stretches horizontally, 'nsew' fills the entire cell.
margin	External spacing in pixels. Accepts an integer, a 2-tuple (horizontal, vertical), or a 4-tuple (left, top, right, bottom).
margin_x	Horizontal external spacing. Accepts an integer or (left, right).
margin_y	Vertical external spacing. Accepts an integer or (top, bottom).
