jlic

This tool can be used to automatically generate a simple GPL/Proprietary dual license for your Rust project.

View the license template at template.md.

How to use

1. Install jlic by running cargo install jlic.
   

2. To generate a license, cd into your Rust project and run jlic.
   

Run jlic --help to view available options.

Note: For now I advise you to manually change the license information in Cargo.toml instead of using the -c or --update flags. Updating package information through jlic -c produces valid TOML but results in a loss of the file's original organization. (See Cargo.toml.)

Troubleshooting

Please ensure that your Rust project is structured correctly and that you are running this script from within the project directory. If you can run cargo build then you should not have trouble using jlic.
If you still encounter errors, please report the issue on the github repository!
