Script for adding copyright notes at the top of files.

Project description

autocopyright

Autocopyright is a script which was designed to automatically add copyright notices at the top of source files. It uses jinja2 templates which can be automatically filled with values pulled from pyproject.toml and other files.

Example

To run autocopyright you must specify comment sign, directory to traverse, glob patterns of files to modify and path to license template.

autocopyright -s "#" -d autocopyright -g "*.py" -g "*.pyi" -l "./templates/MIT.md.jinja2"

Templates

Autocopyright uses Jinja2 templates to determine content of copyright header. Such template is loaded from predefined destination and rendered with few special variables available. Those variables are listed below:

  • now - datetime.datetime object holding current time (determined once, at the beginning of script execution)

  • pyproject - dictionary-like object holding loaded content of pyproject.toml file loaded from current working directory of script.

Template for LGPL-3.0 license could look like this:

Copyright {{ now.year }} {{ pyproject.tool.poetry.authors[0] }}
