License::SPDX

Synopsis

use License::SPDX;

my $l = License::SPDX.new;

if $l.get-license('Artistic-2.0') -> $license {
	pass "licence is good";
	if $license.is-deprecated-license {
		warn "deprecated licence";
    }
}
else {
	flunk "not a good licence";
}

Description

This provides an abstraction over the SPDX License List as provided in JSON format. Its primary raison d'être is to help the licence checking of Test::META and to allow for the warning about deprecated licences therein.

The intention is to update this with a new license list (and up the version,) every time the SPDX list is updated.

Installation

Assuming that you have a working Rakudo compiler you should be able to install this using zef :

zef install License::SPDX

# Or from a local clone

zef install .

Support

This is a very simple module, but if you have any suggestions or patches etc please send them to https://github.com/jonathanstowe/License-SPDX/issues

Licence & Copyright

This is free software, please the LICENCE in the distribution.

The SPDX Data licensing is described here, the JSON data is included verbatim from source.

Debian packager request: Please tag your releases

Hello

In Debian, we have a toolset (i.e. uscan) to track upstream release that work on GitHub tags.

Without release tags, the tracking tools are not working and we are not aware when a new release is mage. Which means Debian packages will lag behind your releases.

So please tag at least the last release and any future release.

All the best

Dod (for Debian)

Circular dependecy between Test::META and License::SPDX

In this module there's a test, t/001-meta.t in which I see these lines:

BEGIN {
    require Test::META <&meta-ok>;

but Test::META is not listed as a dependency in the META6.json file.
OTOH Test::META lists this module in the depends section of its META6.json file, so the only way to install those modules is to zef install --/test one of them.
