LGPL Request for a port to javascript.

Open bonafideduck opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I’ve been considering converting this to Javascript and making it into a library. Unfortunately, GPLv2 would prevent it from being used that way(1). Would you consider allowing me to change the derived source to LGPL?

(1) Actually, in that situation, since it isn’t distributed as a package, it probably would be okay. But an node app or a on-premises distribution bundle would.

@bonafideduck did you ever do this or find a similar JS library? I would love to be able to use combinediff on my Node.js server without shelling out!

@samatcodeapprove sorry, I’ve had no luck.
