Make license database public

Open To1ne opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

At GitLab we've been working to integrate this package in our codebase (with the kind help of @g4s8).

But to use this package to it's full extent, it would be nice if it would expose more info about the detected license.

The info we'd need:

  • name
  • nickname (not sure how this differs from the name, is it the SPDX name?)
  • url to the license

I don't think this require a change in the API, but we'd need outside access to licensedb/internal. But I'm happy to hear your thought on that.
