# SkyWalking Eyes Sky Walking logo A full-featured license tool to check and fix license headers and resolve dependencies' licenses. [![X Follow](https://img.shields.io/badge/2K%2B-follow?style=for-the-badge&logo=X&label=%40ASFSKYWALKING)](https://twitter.com/AsfSkyWalking) ## Usage You can use License-Eye in GitHub Actions or in your local machine. ### GitHub Actions First of all, add a `.licenserc.yaml` in the root of your project, for Apache Software Foundation projects, the following configuration should be enough. > **Note**: The full configurations can be found in [the configuration section](#configurations). ```yaml header: license: spdx-id: Apache-2.0 copyright-owner: Apache Software Foundation paths-ignore: - 'dist' - 'licenses' - '**/*.md' - 'LICENSE' - 'NOTICE' comment: on-failure # If you don't want to check dependencies' license compatibility, remove the following part dependency: files: - pom.xml # If this is a maven project. - Cargo.toml # If this is a rust project. - package.json # If this is a npm project. - go.mod # If this is a Go project. - Gemfile.lock # If this is a Ruby project (Bundler). Ensure Gemfile.lock is committed. ``` #### Check License Headers To check license headers in GitHub Actions, add a step in your GitHub workflow. ```yaml - name: Check License Header uses: apache/skywalking-eyes/header@main # always prefer to use a revision instead of `main`. # with: # log: debug # optional: set the log level. The default value is `info`. # config: .licenserc.yaml # optional: set the config file. The default value is `.licenserc.yaml`. # token: # optional: the token that license eye uses when it needs to comment on the pull request. Set to empty ("") to disable commenting on pull request. The default value is ${{ github.token }} # mode: # optional: Which mode License-Eye should be run in. Choices are `check`, `fix` or `diff`. The default value is `check`. ``` #### Fix License Headers By default the action runs License-Eye in check mode, which will raise an error if any of the processed files are missing license headers. If `mode` is set to `fix`, the action will instead apply the license header to any processed file that is missing a license header. The fixed files can then be pushed back to the pull request using another GitHub action. For example: ```yaml - name: Fix License Header uses: apache/skywalking-eyes/header@main with: mode: fix - name: Apply Changes uses: EndBug/add-and-commit@v4 env: GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} with: author_name: License Bot author_email: license_bot@github.com message: 'Automatic application of license header' ``` > **Warning**: The exit code of fix mode is always 0 and can not be used to block CI status. Consider running the action in check mode if you would like CI to fail when a file is missing a license header. > **Note**: In 0.3.0 and earlier versions, GitHub Actions `apache/skywalking-eyes` > only works for header check/fix, since 0.4.0, we have a dedicate GitHub Actions > `apache/skywalking-eyes/header` for header check/fix and a GitHub Actions > `apache/skywalking-eyes/dependency` for dependency resolve/check. > Now `apache/skywalking-eyes` is equivalent to `apache/skywalking-eyes/header` in > order not to break existing usages of `apache/skywalking-eyes`. #### Check Dependencies' License To check dependencies license in GitHub Actions, add a step in your GitHub workflow. ```yaml - name: Check Dependencies' License uses: apache/skywalking-eyes/dependency@main # always prefer to use a revision instead of `main`. # with: # log: debug # optional: set the log level. The default value is `info`. # config: .licenserc.yaml # optional: set the config file. The default value is `.licenserc.yaml`. # mode: # optional: Which mode License-Eye should be run in. Choices are `check` or `resolve`. The default value is `check`. # flags: # optional: Extra flags appended to the command, for example, `--summary=path/to/template.tmpl` ```
Ruby projects (Bundler) License-Eye can resolve Ruby dependencies and their licenses directly from Gemfile.lock. Rules applied: - If a .gemspec file exists in the same directory as Gemfile.lock, the project is treated as a library and development dependencies are ignored. Runtime dependencies (and their transitives) are included. - If no .gemspec is present, the project is treated as an app and all dependencies from Gemfile.lock are considered (both runtime and development). Requirements: - Commit Gemfile.lock to version control so License-Eye can read the locked dependency graph. - For libraries, ensure the .gemspec is present in the same directory as Gemfile.lock. Minimal config snippet: ```yaml dependency: files: - Gemfile.lock ``` GitHub Actions example: ```yaml name: Apache SkyWalking Eyes permissions: contents: read on: push: branches: - 'main' - '*-stable' tags: - '!*' # Do not execute on tags pull_request: branches: - '*' # Allow manually triggering the workflow. workflow_dispatch: # Cancels all previous workflow runs for the same branch that have not yet completed. concurrency: # The concurrency group contains the workflow name and the branch name. group: "${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.ref }}" cancel-in-progress: true jobs: license-check: if: "!contains(github.event.commits[0].message, '[ci skip]') && !contains(github.event.commits[0].message, '[skip ci]')" runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - name: Checkout uses: actions/checkout@v5 - name: Check Dependencies' License uses: apache/skywalking-eyes/dependency@main with: config: .licenserc.yaml # Ruby packages declared as dependencies in gemspecs or Gemfiles are # typically consumed as binaries; enable weak-compatibility # so permissive and weak-copyleft combinations are treated as compatible. flags: --weak-compatible ``` Note: License-Eye may query the RubyGems API to determine licenses when they are not specified in your configuration. Ensure the workflow has network access.
### Global CLI flags The following flags are available for all commands: | Flag name | Short name | Description | |---------------|------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| | `--verbosity` | `-v` | Set log level (debug, info, warn, error, fatal, panic). Default: info | | `--config` | `-c` | Path to the configuration file. Default: .licenserc.yaml | Examples: ```bash license-eye --verbosity debug --config .licenserc.yaml header check license-eye -v warn -c path/to/.licenserc.yaml dep resolve ``` ### Docker Image For Bash, users can execute the following command, ```shell docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/github/workspace apache/skywalking-eyes header check docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/github/workspace apache/skywalking-eyes header fix ``` For PowerShell 7, users can execute the following command, ``` docker run -it --rm -v ${pwd}:/github/workspace apache/skywalking-eyes header check docker run -it --rm -v ${pwd}:/github/workspace apache/skywalking-eyes header fix ``` #### Using Docker for License Dependency Checks To check dependencies' licenses in Docker, you'll need the appropriate language runtime and package managers in your environment. The base Docker image only includes the license-eye binary. To check dependencies, you can build a custom Docker image with your required language tools: ```dockerfile FROM apache/skywalking-eyes:latest # Install the tools you need ``` See the [examples directory](examples/) for more detailed examples and Dockerfiles for different languages. ### Docker Image from the latest codes For users and developers who want to help to test the latest codes on main branch, we publish a Docker image to the GitHub Container Registry for every commit in main branch, tagged with the commit sha. If it's the latest commit in main branch, it's also tagged with `latest`. **Note**: these Docker images are not official Apache releases. For official releases, please refer to [the download page](https://skywalking.apache.org/downloads/#SkyWalkingEyes) for executable binary and [the Docker hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/apache/skywalking-eyes) for Docker images. ```shell docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/github/workspace ghcr.io/apache/skywalking-eyes/license-eye header check docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd):/github/workspace ghcr.io/apache/skywalking-eyes/license-eye header fix ``` ### Compile from Source ```bash git clone https://github.com/apache/skywalking-eyes cd skywalking-eyes make build ``` Notes: The `make build` command will generate a bin directory in the current project directory. Choose the appropriate binary file according to your operating system. If you have the Go SDK installed, you can also use the `go install` command to install the latest code. ```bash go install github.com/apache/skywalking-eyes/cmd/license-eye@latest ``` ### Use Homebrew on macOS If you don’t have it installed, you can install it by running the following command in terminal: ```bash /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" ``` Then install license-eye using the following command: ```bash brew install license-eye ``` #### Check License Header ```bash license-eye -c test/testdata/.licenserc_for_test_check.yaml header check ```
Header Check Result ``` INFO Loading configuration from file: test/testdata/.licenserc_for_test_check.yaml INFO Totally checked 30 files, valid: 12, invalid: 12, ignored: 6, fixed: 0 ERROR the following files don't have a valid license header: test/testdata/include_test/without_license/testcase.go test/testdata/include_test/without_license/testcase.graphql test/testdata/include_test/without_license/testcase.ini test/testdata/include_test/without_license/testcase.java test/testdata/include_test/without_license/testcase.md test/testdata/include_test/without_license/testcase.php test/testdata/include_test/without_license/testcase.py test/testdata/include_test/without_license/testcase.sh test/testdata/include_test/without_license/testcase.yaml test/testdata/include_test/without_license/testcase.yml test/testdata/test-spdx-asf.yaml test/testdata/test-spdx.yaml exit status 1 ```
#### Fix License Header ```bash license-eye -c test/testdata/.licenserc_for_test_fix.yaml header fix ```
Header Fix Result ``` INFO Loading configuration from file: test/testdata/.licenserc_for_test_fix.yaml INFO Totally checked 20 files, valid: 10, invalid: 10, ignored: 0, fixed: 10 ```
#### Diff License Header This command shows where the license headers of the invalid files differ from the license configured in the config file, to help understand why `header check` fails, for example, to spot a typo in an existing license header. ```bash license-eye -c .licenserc.yaml header diff ```
Header Diff Result For a `test.go` whose license header has a typo `wwwhttp://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0` in the license URL, and a `missing.py` that doesn't have a license header at all: ``` INFO Loading configuration from file: .licenserc.yaml missing.py: [-licensed to the asf under one or more contributor license ... the specific language governing permissions and limitations under the license.-] ... test.go: ... copy of the license at [-http://www.apache.org/licenses/license-2.0-] {+wwwhttp://www.apache.org/licenses/license-2.0+} unless required by applicable law ... and limitations under the license. ... INFO Totally checked 3 files, valid: 0, invalid: 2, ignored: 1, fixed: 0 ERROR one or more files does not have a valid license header exit status 1 ```
The texts are compared in their normalized forms (comment markers stripped, whitespace flattened, case-insensitive, etc., the same forms that `header check` compares), so every difference shown is a real cause of the check failure: `[-text-]` marks text that is expected by the configured license but missing in the file, `{+text+}` marks text that is in the file but not expected by the configured license, and long runs of unchanged or missing words are collapsed into `...`. #### Resolve Dependencies' licenses This command assists human audits of the dependencies licenses. It's exit code is always 0. It supports three flags, in addition to the [global](#global-cli-flags) ones: | Flag name | Short name | Description | |-------------|------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `--output` | `-o` | Save the dependencies' `LICENSE` files to a specified directory so that you can put them in distribution package if needed. | | `--summary` | `-s` | Based on the template, aggregate all dependency information and generate a `LICENSE` file. | | `--license` | `-l` | The output path to the LICENSE file to be generated. The default summary format will be used if summary template file is not specified | ```bash license-eye -c test/testdata/.licenserc_for_test_check.yaml dep resolve -o ./dependencies/licenses -s LICENSE.tpl ```

#### Check Dependencies' licenses This command can be used to perform automatic license compatibility check, when there is incompatible licenses found, the command will exit with status code 1 and fail the command. ```bash license-eye -c test/testdata/.licenserc_for_test_check.yaml dep check ``` It supports three flags, in addition to the [global](#global-cli-flags) ones: | Flag name | Short name | Description | |---------------------|------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `--weak-compatible` | `-w` | Treat weak-compatible licenses as compatible during checks. Use with caution and manually confirm the usage conditions for such licenses are met. | | `--fsf-free` | `-f` | Only consider licenses marked as FSF Free/Libre when determining compatibility. Non‑FSF‑free licenses are treated as incompatible. | | `--osi-approved` | `-o` | Only consider OSI‑approved licenses when determining compatibility. Non‑OSI‑approved licenses are treated as incompatible. | Example using weak-compatible mode: ```bash license-eye -c test/testdata/.licenserc_for_test_check.yaml dep check -w ```

The `header` section is configurations for source codes license header. If you have multiple modules or packages in your project that have differing licenses, this section may contain a list of licenses: ```yaml header: - path: "/path/to/module/a" license: spdx-id: Apache-2.0 - path: "/path/to/module/b" license: spdx-id: MPL-2.0 ``` 2. The [SPDX ID](https://spdx.org/licenses/) of the license, it’s convenient when your license is standard SPDX license, so that you can simply specify this identifier without copying the whole license `content` or `pattern`. This will be used as the content when `fix` command needs to insert a license header. 3. The copyright owner to replace the `[owner]` in the `SPDX-ID` license template. 4. The copyright software name to replace the `[software-name]` in the `SPDX-ID` license template. 5. If you are not using the standard license text, you can paste your license text here, this will be used as the content when `fix` command needs to insert a license header, if both `license` and `SPDX-ID` are specified, `license` wins. 6. The `pattern` is an optional regexp. You don’t need this if all the file headers are the same as `license` or the license of `SPDX-ID`, otherwise you need to compose a pattern that matches your existing license texts so that `license-eye` won't complain about the existing license headers. If you want to replace your existing license headers, you can compose a `pattern` that matches your existing license headers, and modify the `content` to what you want to have, then `license-eye header fix` would rewrite all the existing license headers to the wanted `content`. 7. The `paths` are the path list that will be checked (and fixed) by license-eye, default is `['**']`. Formats like `**/*`.md and `**/bin/**` are supported. 8. The `paths-ignore` are the path list that will be ignored by license-eye. By default, `.git` and the content in `.gitignore` will be inflated into the `paths-ignore` list. 9. On what condition License-Eye will comment the check results on the pull request, `on-failure`, `always` or `never`. Options other than `never` require the environment variable `GITHUB_TOKEN` to be set. 10. The `license-location-threshold` specifies the index threshold where the license header can be located. 11. The `language` is an optional configuration. You can set the language license header comment style. If it doesn't exist, it will use the default configuration at the `languages.yaml`. An [example](test/testdata/.licenserc_language_config_test.yaml) is to use block comment style for Go codes. 12. Specify the programming language identifier. You can set different configurations for multiple languages. 13. The `extensions` are the files with these extensions which the configuration will take effect. 14. The `filenames` are the specified files which the configuration will take effect. 15. The `comment_style_id` set the license header comment style, it's the `id` at the `styles.yaml`. 16. The `dependency` section is configurations for resolving dependencies' licenses. 17. The `files` are the files that declare the dependencies of a project, typically, `go.mod` in Go project, `pom.xml` in maven project, and `package.json` in NodeJS project. If it's a relative path, it's relative to the `.licenserc.yaml`. 18. Declare the licenses which cannot be identified by this tool. 19. The `name` of the dependency, The name is different for different projects, `PackagePath` in Go project, `GroupID:ArtifactID` in maven project, `PackageName` in NodeJS project. You can use file pattern as described in [the doc](https://pkg.go.dev/path/filepath#Match). 20. The `version` of the dependency, comma seperated string (such as `1.0,2.0,3.0`), if this is empty, it means all versions of the dependency. 21. The [SPDX ID](https://spdx.org/licenses/) of the dependency license. 22. The minimum percentage of the file that must contain license text for identifying a license, default is `75`. 23. The dependencies that should be excluded when analyzing the licenses, this is useful when you declare the dependencies in `pom.xml` with `compile` scope but don't distribute them in package. (Note that non-`compile` scope dependencies are automatically excluded so you don't need to put them here). 24. The transitive dependencies brought by <23> should be recursively excluded when analyzing the licenses, currently only maven project supports this. 25. The copyright year of the work, if it's empty, it will be set to the current year. If you don't want to update the license year anually, you can set this to the year of the first publication of your work, such as `1994`, or `1994-2023`. 26. When `require_fsf_free` is true, only dependency licenses marked as FSF Free/Libre in the built-in compatibility matrices are considered compatible. Licenses not marked FSF-free will be treated as incompatible even if otherwise listed as compatible. This can also be enabled via the CLI flag `--fsf-free` (`-f`). 27. When `require_osi_approved` is true, only dependency licenses marked as OSI-approved in the built-in compatibility matrices are considered compatible. Licenses not marked OSI-approved will be treated as incompatible even if otherwise listed as compatible. This can also be enabled via the CLI flag `--osi-approved` (`-o`). **NOTE**: When the `SPDX-ID` is Apache-2.0 and the owner is Apache Software foundation, the content would be [a dedicated license](https://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html#headers) specified by the ASF, otherwise, the license would be [the standard one](https://www.apache.org/foundation/license-faq.html#Apply-My-Software). ## Supported File Types The `header check` and `header diff` commands theoretically support all kinds of file types, while the supported file types of `header fix` command can be found [in this YAML file](assets/languages.yaml). In the YAML file, if the language has a non-empty property `comment_style_id`, and the comment style id is declared in [the comment styles file](assets/styles.yaml), then the language is supported by `fix` command. - [assets/languages.yaml](assets/languages.yaml) ```yaml Java: type: programming tm_scope: source.java ace_mode: java codemirror_mode: clike codemirror_mime_type: text/x-java color: "#b07219" extensions: - ".java" language_id: 181 comment_style_id: SlashAsterisk ``` - [assets/styles.yaml](assets/styles.yaml) ```yaml - id: SlashAsterisk # (i) start: '/*' # (ii) middle: ' *' # (iii) end: ' */' # (iv) ``` 1. The `comment_style_id` used in [assets/languages.yaml](assets/languages.yaml). 2. The leading characters of the starting of a block comment. 3. The leading characters of the middle lines of a block comment. 4. The leading characters of the ending line of a block comment. ## Technical Documentation - There is an [activity diagram](./docs/header_fix_logic.svg) explaining the implemented license header fixing mechanism in-depth. The diagram's source file can be found [here](./docs/header_fix_logic.plantuml). ## Contribution - If you find any file type should be supported by the aforementioned configurations, but it's not listed there, feel free to [open a pull request](https://github.com/apache/skywalking-eyes/pulls) to add the configuration into the two files. - If you find the license template of an SPDX ID is not supported, feel free to [open a pull request](https://github.com/apache/skywalking-eyes/pulls) to add it into [the template folder](assets/header-templates). ## License [Apache License 2.0](https://github.com/apache/skywalking-eyes/blob/master/LICENSE) ## Contact Us * Mail list: **dev@skywalking.apache.org**.
