Generate your license. Yet another lice, but implemented with Jinja2 and docopt, should be much more elegant and cleaner. I also get many inspirations from joe(help you generate gitignore).
seems better than lice:
- Licen use Jinja2 as its template engine, sweet and easy. Lice do it by hand.
- Licen use docopt for the command line interface. Lice use argparse.
- Licen don't render the boilerplate in the license template. Lice do. Check out the issue here.
- Licen is pep8 checked. Lice don't.
seems not good as lice:
- Licen support less licenses. Check issue#1
- Licen haven't support comment the license header yet. Check issue#2
$ pip install licen
NOTE: because licen use the git configuration(user.name and user.email) as default context, please make sure that you've set up git properly. You can check this guide if you have done yet.
A gif is worth than a thousand words.
In short, generate a licnese:
$ licen mit > LICENSE
Generate a header:
$ licen header gpl-2.0-header > main.py
Or get detailed help message from the terminal.
$ licen -h
licen, generates license for you via command line
Usage:
licen [header] (-l | --list)
licen [-y YEAR] [-f FULLNAME] [-e EMAIL] LICENSE_NAME
licen header [-y YEAR] [-f FULLNAME] [-e EMAIL] LICENSE_HEADER
licen --var NAME
licen (-h | --help)
licen (-V | --version)
Options:
-l --list List all the support licenses or headers.
-y YEAR Specify the year.
-f FULLNAME Specify the owner's fullname.
-e EMAIL Specify the email.
