license-gen

type some command to generate a LICENSE file for your project.

Quick Start

$ npm install -g license-gen

cd /path/to/yourproject
license LICENSE_TYPE

Advance

$ license [-a YOURNAME[ -y YEAR[ -p PROJECT[ LICENSE]]]]

eg.

$ license -a Luffy mit

$ license -a Luffy -y 2000 mit

license type can insert into any where of your command:

$ license mit -a Luffy -y 2000

and, if you forget to specify a license type:

$ license -a Luffy

then, it will ask you to input a license type.

So, You really don't need to remember these arguments' requirements.

Alternative

you can use the interactive way to choosing a license. just type the license and press Return key.

and then, finish the questions prompted, you will get a license too.

In the future.

• append the README file, add license note to the end of the file.
• much more... I think. :P
