External command for showing the license(s) the given formulae are available under.

Install

brew tap zachwick/license

Usage

The most useful way to use the command is by invoking

$ brew licence formula1

which will print out any known licensing info for that formula.

brew licence formula1
brew license formula1 formula2 ...
brew licence [-r|--recurse] formula1
brew license [-h|--help]

Usage:
Fetch and print the license(s) that the given formula is licensed under. Using `-r` will recurse through the dependency tree printing out `formulaX: License1` pairs.

Options:
-h, --help        show this help message and exit
-r, --recurse     recurse through the dependency tree and invoke `brew license <formula>` for each dependency
