Burocrata: Check and insert copyright and license notices into source code

Part of the Fatiando a Terra project.

About

Burocrata is a small command-line program that can check the existence of copyright and license notices in source code files and add them when they are missing.

Installing

Burocrata is available from PyPI:

python -m pip install burocrata

and conda-forge:

conda install burocrata -c conda-forge

Using

Check that very .py file in a directory has a license notice:

$ burocrata --check --extension=py source_folder

Removing the --check option will make Burocrata add the license notice to the files that don't have them:

$ burocrata --extension=py source_folder

The license and copyright notice can be configured in a pyproject.toml file located in the directory where burocrata is run:

$ cat pyproject.toml
[tool.burocrata]
notice = '''
# Copyright (c) YYYY Name of Developer.
# Distributed under the terms of the BSD 3-Clause License.
# SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-3-Clause'''
exclude = ["__init__.py"]

See a full list of options:

$ burocrata --help

Dependencies
