A simple plugin, to make dealing with licensing simple. Files: ./addons/simplelicense/* License: CC0-1.0
Developed in Godot version: v4.0.beta.custom_build [166df0896]
Quick Example: (A License Viewer Scene, that you can also drop into one of your game scenes) Run the Scene at res://addons/simplelicense/GUI/LicenseGUI.tscn
look around, then
click on the "open data directory" button
then click on the "save licenses" button
and watch the data directory populate with license files
Quick Start: 1. Create a "LicenseLink" Resource file inside the res://licenses/license_links/
2. Click on the the new Resource file, and try it out
There are docs on how to use it, so just F1 + LicenseLink, to find out more
3. Load license information
Create an instance of "LicenseManager" either in code or by adding the node to the scene
then call "load_license_information" on the LicenseManager
4. Export License information
call "export" function on the LicenseManager
it will populate the "user://" directory with your license files
one combined "COPYRIGHT.txt" file
and individual copyright files into "user://licenses/<license_identifier>.txt".
The license text will be formatted in the SPDX standard.
It's the way the Godot Engine does it.
