mklicense

CLI tool for generating Licenses. Easily.

Stay Tuned :star: :star: :star: :star: :star:

v. 1.0 is coming!

mklicense will behave like an old school text-based game, to drive you to which license suits best for your project (thanks Jerod Santo for the idea). But still keeping its value as-is, behaving like a straight-to-the-point tool.

Why should I use this?

Licenses are boring;
Copy/paste stuff is so 1999;
The GitHub LICENSE generator doesn't necessarily includes your information inside the file;
It's busy people/beginner's friendly. It doesn't have all those flags to just install a license;
You shouldn't trust other people to store your LICENSE sources. LICENSEs are sensible.

Install

$ npm install -g mklicense

Usage

$ mklicense

Since its version 0.1.4, mklicense needs Node version >=4 to run properly.

Licenses included

Unlicense
MIT
Apache 2.0
MPL 2.0
GNU LGPL 3.0
GNU GPL 3.0
GNU AGPL 3.0

You talk about trust. So, where are all the licenses located?

mklicense extracts licenses from http://choosealicense.com/ (which is curated by GitHub), and creates a .txt file for your desired project. I have no control over any license, which is a good thing for you and me.
