Also NOTICE text should be included in the output
Closed this issue ยท 3 comments
Hi,
I'd like to use this plugin to comply with a bunch libraries licenses that I include in my webapp bundle. But I noticed that the NOTICE
file text is not included in the output although, from what I understand, it is a requirement of some licenses such as Apache 2.0
.
https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.txt 4.d
If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
pertain to any part of the Derivative Works, in at least one
of the following places: within a NOTICE text file distributed
as part of the Derivative Works; within the Source form or
documentation, if provided along with the Derivative Works; or,
within a display generated by the Derivative Works, if and
wherever such third-party notices normally appear. The contents
of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
as modifying the License.
Do you think this feature could be added? I could also work on it and open a PR (I've never worked on a webpack plugin, but I can give it a try)
@ccatterina That sounds like a useful feature, thanks for reporting! Would love if you gave it a try! ๐
๐ I'll work on it in the next few days!
Released with v4.5.0
