First minor relase of head_of_apache
This package adds or updates the Apache v2 license header to source code files of your project.
The code is mostly taken from the [IAM-CMS pre-commit-hooks project](https://gitlab.com/iam-cms/pre-commit-hooks). The major changes were that the license header is fuzzily matched, meaning that if the year changes, the license header will be updated inplace instead of being prepended to the previous header.
Usage
The hook is intended to the following:
- Add the Apache 2.0 License header for the desired author and a date range that finishes with the current year or the string "present" to source code files that do not have the Apache 2.0 License header
- If there's an existing Apache 2.0 License header with another author, it keeps it while prepending a new License header under the desired author and the year range
- If there's an existing Apache 2.0 License header for the desired author but for an incorrect year range, the year range is updated while keeping the start year of the original license header.
- Any special shebang or encoding opennings are left are they were found.
To run the pre-commit hook, you must pass the following configuration:
yaml
repos:
- repo: https://github.com/lucianopaz/head_of_apache
rev: "0.1.0"
hooks:
- id: head_of_apache
args:
- --author
- name of author
- --exclude
- excluded/directory_or_file
- --last-year-present
Using the `args` keyword, the default behaviour of the hook can be adapted. The following options exist:
-a/--author: The author to use in the license header.
-m/--mapping: Overwrite existing or add additional file types to the
default file/comment style mapping. For example, to use Jinja comment styles
in HTML files, the following mapping can be used: -m html jinja.
-x/--exclude: A path to exclude. A file will be excluded if it starts with
the given path. Can be specified more than once.
-d/--dry-run: If present, `head_of_apache` will only print the list of the files that need a license update instead of changing them inplace.
-l/--last-year-present: If present, the end year in the license date range is set to the string "present". If the flag is not supplied, then the current year number will be used in the year range instead.
