Example Usage: mkdir /some/place cd /some/place getallsrc.sh (cd Packages && ./runit.sh) extract.sh mkarchive.sh NOTE: After running these tools, the Archive subdir is ready to be uploaded into Fossology for license identification. ------------------------------------- * mknotices.sh: Given the path to the "Archive" directory created by "mkarchive.sh", and a destination folder, this tool takes each package in the archive and runs the license extractor (see below) on it, and generates a static site which includes: * Overview notice about open source compliance * A List of Packages, and for each package - ability to download the package - ability to browse and download the software licenses - Ability to browse and download the copyright notices Finally, it creates a compressed archive that contains everything described above, suitable for making the available open source available on a website or by delivering the archive to anyone that requests it. Example usage: mknotices.sh $(pwd)/Archive $(pwd)/Notices * license-extract-VERSION-HOST: Usage: license-extract-VERSION-osx [options] [path] ... Version VERSION. © 2014-2015 Exablox Corporation. All Rights Reserved. Options: -0=false: Pathnames read from the input file (-i) are \0 delimited (default is \n delimited) -continue=false: Continue processing, ignoring errors (default is abort on error) -i="": File to read list of files and directories from (use '-' for stdin) -ldir="": Directory to save licenses to (default = don't save) -o="": File to write HTML formatted licensedb to (default = stdout) -quiet=false: Don't output errors (use in conjunction with '-continue') -showlic=false: show licenses found during processing -style="": Use this css stylesheet (default = embed) -verbose=false: Turn on verbose debug output (default is off) -version=false: show version and exit Description: The purpose of this tool is to generate find and emit the licenses and copyright notices in a sourcetree for compliance purposes. For example, it can be used to help comply with the various open source licenses that require attribution in documentation. It recursively searches through the given set of files and directories, extracts copyright notices (de-duplicating against notices it has already seen), and extracts the licenses. At the end of the search, it outputs (-o) an HTML document which contains per file copyright notices and licenses. If the -ldir option is given in combination with -o, it copies the licenses it finds into the specified directory, and makes the licenses viewable / downloadable via a link in the HTML document it emits. For directories provided on the command line, all contents will be recursively scanned. For more complex searches (such as excluding certin file types), a list of files may also be provided via a file or stdin. This makes it easy to build complex query pipelines with tools such as find(1). See the '-i' and '-0' command line options for details.
