Retrieves licenses of all Rust dependencies. Originally written for stencil2 but is now separated into its own project.
Licenses are retrieved by searching in the following order:
- Folder that
Cargo.tomlis in - Crate cache in
~/.cargo - GitHub repository
- Text from
spdxwith identifier inCargo.toml
cargo add license-retriever
cargo add --build license-retriever
use license_retriever::{Config, LicenseRetriever};
fn main() {
let config = Config {
// options...
..Config::default()
};
LicenseRetriever::from_config(&config).unwrap().save_in_out_dir("LICENSE-3RD-PARTY").unwrap();
}use license_retriever;
fn main() {
let licenses = license_retriever::license_retriever_data!("LICENSE-3RD-PARTY").unwrap();
println!("{}", licenses);
}
