addlicense
The program ensures source code files have copyright license headers
by scanning directory patterns recursively.
It modifies all source files in place and avoids adding a license header
to any file that already has one.
install
go get -u github.com/nordcloud/addlicense
usage
addlicense [flags] pattern [pattern ...]
-c copyright holder (default "Google LLC")
-f custom license file (no default)
-l license type: apache, bsd, mit, mpl (default "apache")
-y year (defaults to current year)
-check check only mode: verify presence of license headers and exit with non-zero code if missing
-u update mode: if the year in the license was older than current one - update it (eg. 2018 changes to 2018-2021)
-v verbose mode: print the name of the files that are modified
The pattern argument can be provided multiple times, and may also refer
to single files.
