license-check

license-check is a npm plugin to check the presence of a specific header in all the files of a project, and give to you a log of all the files where the header is missing. Never miss again a license header in a file.

If you want to run this plugin from gulp you can use gulp-license-check.

Install

$ npm install --save-dev license-check

Usage

You can use this plugin in two ways:

• Run it from npm
• Including it in your node app

Run it from npm

Add the following lines to your package.json :

"scripts": {
    "licensecheck": "license-check",
},
"license-check-config": {
    "src": [
      "test/**/*",,
      "src/**/*.js",
      "/usr/lib",
      "index.js",
      "!./node_modules/**/*"
    ],
    "path": "assets/header.txt",
    "blocking": false,
    "logInfo": false,
    "logError": true
  }

Then run from the terminal :

$ npm run licensecheck

The license-check-config section is mandatory, without this section the plugin will not work.

Include it in your node app

var license = require('license-check');

license.check({
	src: [
		'**/*',
		'/usr/lib',
		'!./node_modules/**/*'
	],
	path: "assets/header.txt",
	blocking: false,
	logInfo: false,
	logError: true
});
