Usage

The following command should be used.

python pylicup -l <path_to_your_license_file> -d <path_to_directory_with_python_files>

• <path_to_your_licenses_file> List of licenses, the first one will replace the ones that follow (in case present) or simply added at the top.
• <path_to_directory_with_python_files> List of arguments representing paths to the directories containing python files.

Examples

Given the following directory hierarchy:

license_manager.py
|-src\
    |-__init__.py
    |-main.py
    |-utils.py
|-test\
    |-__init__.py
    |-test_main.py
    |-test_utils.py
|-setup.py
|-my_license.txt
|-my_newer_license.txt

1. The following command will update the license for src\main.py and src\utils.py:

python license_manager.py -l my_license.txt -d src

2. Whereas executing the following command will result in updating the license header for src\main.py, src\utils.py, test\test_main.py and test\test_utils.py:

python license_manager.py -l my_license.txt -d src test

3. Last, if we want to replace an existing license header with a new one, we would do the following command:

python license_manager.py -l my_license.txt my_newer_license.txt -d src
