Licenses

This directory contains the logic to extract and compile our license notice release document.

All licenses

To get all of the licenses, run the following command:

bazel build //tools/licenses:all_licenses

And copy the file output by the bazel build command into wherever you need it.

Github API Key

To ensure that you don't get rate limited by Github, license builds need a Github API Key. This is read from the GH_API_KEY env var which is set through bazel action_env.

Jenkins is setup with credentials and a bazelrc file to manage this automatically, but if you need to run a prod build locally that doesn't fail stamping, add build --action_env=GH_API_KEY=<gh_token> with your personal Github access token to your user.bazelrc file.

Insturctions to create a token are here: https://help.github.com/en/articles/creating-a-personal-access-token-for-the-command-line

Note that you don't need to provide any extra permissions, this is used to verify that a repo exists at a public github URL and avoid Github's rate limiting.
