This PR implements automated license header verification for Go files in pull requests using Apache SkyWalking Eyes GitHub Action, addressing the requirement to ensure all code contributions include proper Apache License 2.0 headers.

Changes Made

  • Initial implementation with Apache SkyWalking Eyes GitHub Action
  • Added .licenserc.yaml configuration file for license header verification
  • Integrated into existing CI workflow
  • Updated developer guide documentation
  • Replaced spdx-id configuration with content matching hack/boilerplate.go.txt
  • Updated content configuration to match current boilerplate file with copyright line
  • Replaced language configuration with paths pattern to only check Go files

License Verification with GitHub Action:

  • Uses apache/skywalking-eyes/header@v0.6.0 action for license header checking
  • Configuration file .licenserc.yaml now uses exact license content from hack/boilerplate.go.txt including copyright line
  • Simplified configuration to only check Go files using paths: ["**/*.go"] pattern instead of language-based targeting
  • Integrated into the existing check-diff job in the CI workflow

CI Integration:

  • Added license header check to the existing check-diff job in the CI workflow
  • The check runs automatically on pull requests and fails if files lack proper license headers
  • Uses Apache Foundation's official license checking tool for reliability

Documentation:

  • Updated developer guide with license requirements and tooling information
  • Clear guidance on Apache License 2.0 header requirements
  • References to SkyWalking Eyes for local development

How It Works

The system uses Apache SkyWalking Eyes to validate license headers. When a PR is opened:

  1. The CI runs the SkyWalking Eyes action which checks all applicable files
  2. Validates each Go file contains the exact Apache License 2.0 header text from hack/boilerplate.go.txt (including copyright line)
  3. Fails the CI check if any files are missing proper headers, with clear error messages
  4. Configuration in .licenserc.yaml uses paths pattern **/*.go to specifically target only Go source files

Benefits

  • Industry Standard Tool: Uses Apache Foundation's official license header checker
  • Automated Compliance: Ensures all code includes proper license headers without manual review
  • Better Reliability: Maintained by Apache Software Foundation with regular updates
  • Simplified Maintenance: No custom scripts to maintain, relies on established tooling
  • Clear Feedback: Detailed error messages guide contributors on fixing issues
  • Exact Content Matching: Uses the exact license header content from the project's boilerplate file with copyright
  • Focused Scope: Only checks Go files using **/*.go path pattern, avoiding false positives on documentation and configuration files

The implementation uses a well-established, community-maintained tool instead of custom scripts, providing better reliability and easier maintenance while ensuring license compliance for all contributions.

Copilot AI changed the title [WIP] Create a Github action that checks each new file in a pull request that has been added that the license is correct for that file. The basis of this check should be the boilerplate file under hack/boilerplate.go.txt. Add automated license header checking for new files in pull requests Sep 10, 2025

@copilot I prefer to use a github action instead of a bunch of bash files. Look for a github action that already does this. And use that instead.

@copilot I prefer to use a github action instead of a bunch of bash files. Look for a github action that already does this. And use that instead.

I've replaced the bash scripts with Apache SkyWalking Eyes GitHub Action as requested. The change uses apache/skywalking-eyes/header@v0.6.0 which is specifically designed for Apache License 2.0 header checking. This provides better reliability and maintenance compared to custom scripts. The configuration is in .licenserc.yaml and the CI workflow now uses the official action instead of custom bash scripts.

Updated the .licenserc.yaml configuration to replace spdx-id with content setting that matches the exact license header text from hack/boilerplate.go.txt. The configuration now uses the precise content for license validation. (commit f6ebdfc)

@copilot Instead of setting paths-ignore: set that it should ONLY CHECK go files. I believe thats:

  language: # <11>

...

Updated the .licenserc.yaml configuration to replace paths-ignore with language: Go: setting to only check Go files as requested. This simplifies the configuration and focuses the license check specifically on Go source files. (commit b9fc821)

@copilot Okay, this is still failing. However, according to the documentation you can also set paths to something like **/*.go and then we should be golden.

The paths are the path list that will be checked (and fixed) by license-eye, default is ['**']. Formats like **/*.md and /bin/ are supported.

Hopefully that will mean that it will ONLY consider Go files and we don't have to bother with path-ignore which increases the permutations manyfold.

Updated the .licenserc.yaml configuration to use paths: ["**/*.go"] instead of the language configuration. This targets only Go files using the path pattern as suggested, which should resolve the failing checks. (commit 9741c6f)
