Gemterms

Checks the licensing of your Gemfile.

Status

This is an early release. It's functional, but I'll be adding more useful utilities soon.

Installation and Usage

To install, simply grab the gem:

gem install gemterms

Change a project directory with a Gemfile (e.g. Your Rails v3+ project) and type:

gemterms report

This will output a list (known) licenses for your gems. For more information and options, run gemterms with the --help option:

gemterms --help

Use of this Software

This tool is based upon a number of heuristics and guesses. It should not be treated as legal advice. The MIT-LICENSE.txt really applies here.

Help is more than welcome. Use the usual Fork, Pull Request approach to contribute. In particular, it's good to get additional licenses and compatabilities.
