Module License Info

Add a License Information to Module Info

 Download  GitHub  Support

For Module Developers. This module makes license information visible in module info if set in ModuleInfo array

Use

if installed the two elements license and hreflicense could be added to any module.

public static function getModuleInfo() {

	return array(
		// other stuff
		'license' => 'CC-BY',
		'hreflicense' => 'http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/'
	);
}

license

Shortcut of license name. I recommend to use a consistent Syntax.

Some Examples:

  • GNU-GPL
  • GNU-GPLv2
  • CC-BY-NC
  • OPL
  • MIT
  • EPL

hreflicense

Link to detailed license information. Will only be displayed if license is set.

You have 2 Options.

  • absolute url like

    'hreflicense' => 'http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/'

  • relative url to repository file (stored in the modules folder)

    'hreflicense' => 'license.txt'
