For the next person looking at this repo, the tests are failing.

Fork of https://github.com/pmezard/licenses

• Modified to include:
  • CSV output
  • Link to actual license
  • Option to output a list of all licenses
  • Export core function
  • Adaptations for ease of use in https://github.com/solo-io/gloo
    • May add other product-specific helpers in the future

Usage

Import into another binary

• define Options instead of passing flags

import "github.com/solo-io/go-list-licenses/pkg/license"

func run() error {
	glooOptions := &license.Options{
		RunAll:                  false,
		Words:                   false,
		PrintConfidence:         false,
		UseCsv:                  true,
		PrunePath:               "github.com/solo-io/gloo/vendor/",
		HelperListGlooPkgs:      false,
		ConsolidatedLicenseFile: "third_party_licenses.txt",
		ProductName:             "gloo",
		Pkgs: []string{
			"github.com/solo-io/gloo/projects/accesslogger/cmd",
			"github.com/solo-io/gloo/projects/discovery/cmd",
			"github.com/solo-io/gloo/projects/envoyinit/cmd",
			"github.com/solo-io/gloo/projects/gateway/cmd",
			"github.com/solo-io/gloo/projects/gloo/cmd",
			"github.com/solo-io/gloo/projects/ingress/cmd",
			"github.com/solo-io/gloo/projects/hypergloo",
		},
	}
	return license.PrintLicensesWithOptions(glooOptions)
}

Run as a script with commandline flags

• must be run from within $GOROOT
  • For analyzing go mod projects, consider using https://github.com/mitchellh/golicense instead

# first compile with go build -o analyze-licenses main.go
# cd to the gloo directory
# run the command on all gloo binaries:
~/git/github.com/solo-io/go-list-licenses/analyze-licenses \
    -prune-path github.com/solo-io/gloo/vendor/ \
    -csv \
    -consolidated-license-file third_party_license_list.txt
    github.com/solo-io/gloo/projects/accesslogger/cmd \
    github.com/solo-io/gloo/projects/discovery/cmd \
    github.com/solo-io/gloo/projects/envoyinit/cmd \
    github.com/solo-io/gloo/projects/gateway/cmd \
