``licence-normaliser`` is a comprehensive license normalisation library that
|
|
92
|
+
maps any license representation (SPDX tokens, URLs, prose descriptions) to a
|
|
93
|
+
canonical three-level hierarchy.
|
|

|
+
|

+
Features
|
|
96
|
+
========
|
|
97
|
+
|
|
98
|
+
- **Three-level hierarchy** - LicenseFamily → LicenseName → LicenseVersion.
|
|
99
|
+
- **Wide format support** - SPDX tokens, URLs, prose descriptions.
|
|
100
|
+
- **Creative Commons support** - Full CC family with versions and IGO variants.
|
|
101
|
+
- **Publisher-specific licenses** - Springer, Nature, Elsevier, Wiley, ACS,
|
|
102
|
+
and more.
|
|
103
|
+
- **File-driven data** - Add aliases, URLs, and patterns by editing JSON files.
|
|
104
|
+
No Python code changes required for new synonyms.
|
|
105
|
+
- **Pluggable parsers** - Drop in a new parser class to ingest
|
|
106
|
+
any external license registry. Parsers implement plugin interfaces
|
|
107
|
+
(``RegistryPlugin``, ``URLPlugin``, etc.).
|
|
108
|
+
- **Strict mode** - Raise ``LicenseNotFoundError`` instead of silently
|
|
109
|
+
returning ``"unknown"``.
|
|
110
|
+
- **Caching** - LRU caching for performance.
|
|
111
|
+
- **CLI** - Command-line interface with ``--strict`` and ``--explain`` support.
|
|
112
|
+
|
|
113
|
+
Hierarchy
|
|
114
|
+
=========
|
|
115
|
+
|
|
116
|
+
The library uses a three-level hierarchy:
|
|
117
|
+
|
|
118
|
+
1. **LicenseFamily** - broad bucket: ``"cc"``, ``"osi"``, ``"copyleft"``,
|
|
119
|
+
``"publisher-tdm"``, ...
|
|
120
|
+
2. **LicenseName** - version-free: ``"cc-by"``, ``"cc-by-nc-nd"``, ``"mit"``,
|
|
121
|
+
``"wiley-tdm"``
|
|
122
|
+
3. **LicenseVersion** - fully resolved: ``"cc-by-3.0"``, ``"cc-by-nc-nd-4.0"``
|
|
123
|
+
|
|
124
|
+
Installation
|
|
125
|
+
============
|
|
126
|
+
|
|
127
|
+
With ``uv``:
|
|
128
|
+
|
|
129
|
+
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
130
|
+
|
|
131
|
+
uv pip install licence-normaliser
|
|
132
|
+
|
|
133
|
+
Or with ``pip``:
|
|
134
|
+
|
|
135
|
+
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
136
|
+
|
|
137
|
+
pip install licence-normaliser
|
|
138
|
+
|
|
139
|
+
Quick start
|
|
140
|
+
===========
|
|
141
|
+
|
|
142
|
+
.. code-block:: python
|
|
143
|
+
:name: test_quick_start
|
|
144
|
+
|
|
145
|
+
from licence_normaliser import normalise_license
|
|
146
|
+
|
|
147
|
+
v = normalise_license("CC BY-NC-ND 4.0")
|
|
148
|
+
str(v) # "cc-by-nc-nd-4.0" ← LicenseVersion
|
|
149
|
+
str(v.license) # "cc-by-nc-nd" ← LicenseName
|
|
150
|
+
str(v.license.family) # "cc" ← LicenseFamily
|
|
151
|
+
|
|
152
|
+
Strict mode
|
|
153
|
+
===========
|
|
154
|
+
|
|
155
|
+
By default, unresolvable inputs return an ``"unknown"`` result. Pass
|
|
156
|
+
``strict=True`` to raise ``LicenseNotFoundError`` instead:
|
|
157
|
+
|
|
158

+
.. code-block:: python
|
|
159
|

|
+
|
|
161
|
+
from licence_normaliser import normalise_license
|
|
162
|
+
from licence_normaliser.exceptions import LicenseNotFoundError
|
|
163
|
+
|
|
164
|
+
# Silent fallback (default)
|
|
165
|
+
v = normalise_license("some-unknown-string")
|
|
166
|
+
v.family.key # "unknown"
|
|
167
|
+
|
|
168
|
+
# Strict: raises on unresolvable input
|
|
169
|
+
try:
|
|
170
|
+
v = normalise_license("some-unknown-string", strict=True)
|
|
171
|
+
except LicenseNotFoundError as exc:
|
|
172
|
+
print(exc.raw) # original input
|
|
173
|
+
print(exc.cleaned) # cleaned form that failed lookup

Trace / Explain
|
|
176
|
+
===============
|
|
177
|
+
|
|
178
|
+
Set ``ENABLE_LICENCE_NORMALISER_TRACE=1`` or pass ``trace=True`` to get
|
|
179
|
+
resolution traces showing how the license was matched:
|
|
180
|
+
|
|
181
|
+
.. code-block:: python
|
|

v = ln.normalise_license("MIT")
|
|
194
|
+
print(v.explain())
|
|
195
|

|
|
196
|

Custom plugins

|

==============
|
|
228
|
+
|
|
229
|
+
The ``LicenseNormaliser`` class lets you inject custom plugin classes for
|
|
230
|
+
specialised use cases:

|
|

|

# MIT resolves via SPDX parser
|
|
250
|
+
assert str(ln.normalise_license("MIT")) == "mit"
|
|
251
|
+
|
|
252
|

# CC BY resolves via Alias
|
|
253
|

assert str(ln.normalise_license("CC BY-NC-ND 4.0")) == "cc-by-nc-nd-4.0"
|
|
254
|
+
|
|
255
|
+
.. note::
|
|
256
|
+
|
|
257
|
+
Explicit plugin passing is optional — ``LicenseNormaliser()``
|
|
258
|
+
automatically loads defaults. Use the pattern above only if you need
|
|
259
|
+
custom plugins or reduce number of plugins loaded.
|
|
260
|
+
|
|
261
|
+
For caching, ``LicenseNormaliser`` wraps the resolution method
|
|
262
|
+
with ``lru_cache``.
|
|
263
|
+
Disable it by passing ``cache=False`` for debugging:
|
|
264
|
+
|
|
265
|
+
.. code-block:: python
|
|
266
|
+
:name: test_caching

|
267

+

+
from licence_normaliser import LicenseNormaliser
|

|
+
|
|

|
+
ln = LicenseNormaliser(cache=False)
|

``licence-normaliser`` is a comprehensive license normalisation library that
|
|
40
|
+
maps any license representation (SPDX tokens, URLs, prose descriptions) to a
|
|
41
|
+
canonical three-level hierarchy.
|
|
42
|
+
|
|
43
|
+
Features
|
|
44
|
+
========
|
|
45
|
+
|
|
46
|
+
- **Three-level hierarchy** - LicenseFamily → LicenseName → LicenseVersion.
|
|
47
|
+
- **Wide format support** - SPDX tokens, URLs, prose descriptions.
|
|
48
|
+
- **Creative Commons support** - Full CC family with versions and IGO variants.
|
|
49
|
+
- **Publisher-specific licenses** - Springer, Nature, Elsevier, Wiley, ACS,
|
|
50
|
+
and more.
|
|
51
|
+
- **File-driven data** - Add aliases, URLs, and patterns by editing JSON files.
|
|
52
|
+
No Python code changes required for new synonyms.
|
|
53
|
+
- **Pluggable parsers** - Drop in a new parser class to ingest
|
|
54
|
+
any external license registry. Parsers implement plugin interfaces
|
|
55
|
+
(``RegistryPlugin``, ``URLPlugin``, etc.).
|
|
56
|
+
- **Strict mode** - Raise ``LicenseNotFoundError`` instead of silently
|
|
57
|
+
returning ``"unknown"``.
|
|
58
|
+
- **Caching** - LRU caching for performance.
|
|
59
|
+
- **CLI** - Command-line interface with ``--strict`` and ``--explain`` support.
|
|
60
|
+
|
|
61
|
+
Hierarchy
|
|
62
|
+
=========
|
|
63
|
+
|
|
64
|
+
The library uses a three-level hierarchy:
|
|
65
|
+
|
|
66
|
+
1. **LicenseFamily** - broad bucket: ``"cc"``, ``"osi"``, ``"copyleft"``,
|
|
67
|
+
``"publisher-tdm"``, ...
|
|
68
|
+
2. **LicenseName** - version-free: ``"cc-by"``, ``"cc-by-nc-nd"``, ``"mit"``,
|
|
69
|
+
``"wiley-tdm"``
|
|
70
|
+
3. **LicenseVersion** - fully resolved: ``"cc-by-3.0"``, ``"cc-by-nc-nd-4.0"``
|
|
71
|
+
|
|
72
|
+
Installation
|
|
73
|
+
============
|
|
74
|
+
|
|
75
|
+
With ``uv``:
|
|
76
|
+
|
|
77
|
+
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
78
|
+
|
|
79
|
+
uv pip install licence-normaliser
|
|
80
|
+
|
|
81
|
+
Or with ``pip``:
|
|
82
|
+
|
|
83
|
+
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
84
|
+
|
|
85
|
+
pip install licence-normaliser
|
|
86
|
+
|
|
87
|
+
Quick start
|
|
88
|
+
===========
|
|
89
|
+
|
|
90
|
+
.. code-block:: python
|
|
91
|
+
:name: test_quick_start
|
|
92
|
+
|
|
93
|
+
from licence_normaliser import normalise_license
|
|
94
|
+
|
|
95
|
+
v = normalise_license("CC BY-NC-ND 4.0")
|
|
96
|
+
str(v) # "cc-by-nc-nd-4.0" ← LicenseVersion
|
|
97
|
+
str(v.license) # "cc-by-nc-nd" ← LicenseName
|
|
98
|
+
str(v.license.family) # "cc" ← LicenseFamily
|
|
99
|
+
|
|
100
|
+
Strict mode
|
|
101
|
+
===========
|
|
102
|
+
|
|
103
|
+
By default, unresolvable inputs return an ``"unknown"`` result. Pass
|
|
104
|
+
``strict=True`` to raise ``LicenseNotFoundError`` instead:
|
|
105
|
+

.. code-block:: python
|
|
107

from licence_normaliser.exceptions import LicenseNotFoundError
|
|
111
|
+
|
|
112
|
+
# Silent fallback (default)
|
|
113
|
+
v = normalise_license("some-unknown-string")
|
|
114
|
+
v.family.key # "unknown"
|
|
115
|
+
|
|
116
|
+
# Strict: raises on unresolvable input
|
|
117
|
+
try:
|
|
118
|
+
v = normalise_license("some-unknown-string", strict=True)
|
|
119
|
+
except LicenseNotFoundError as exc:
|
|
120
|
+
print(exc.raw) # original input
|
|
121
|

Trace / Explain
|
|
124
|
+
===============
|
|
125
|
+
|
|
126
|
+
Set ``ENABLE_LICENCE_NORMALISER_TRACE=1`` or pass ``trace=True`` to get
|
|
127
|
+
resolution traces showing how the license was matched:
|
|
128

ln = LicenseNormaliser(trace=True)
|

v = ln.normalise_license("MIT")
|
|
142
|
+
print(v.explain())
|
|
143
|
+
|
|
144
|
+
Output shows the resolution pipeline (alias → registry → url → prose →
|
|
145
|
+
fallback) and which source file + line matched:
|
|
146
|

Custom plugins
|
|
175
|
+
==============
|
|
176
|
+
|
|
177
|
+
The ``LicenseNormaliser`` class lets you inject custom plugin classes for
|
|
178
|
+
specialised use cases:
|
|
179
|
+
|
|
180
|
+
.. code-block:: python
|
|
181
|
+
:name: test_custom_plugins
|
|
182
|
+
|
|
183
|
+
from licence_normaliser import LicenseNormaliser
|
|
184
|
+
from licence_normaliser.parsers.alias import AliasParser
|
|
185
|
+
from licence_normaliser.parsers.spdx import SPDXParser
|
|
186
|
+
|
|
187
|
+
# Use only SPDX + Alias plugins (no CC, no publisher URLs)
|
|
188
|
+
ln = LicenseNormaliser(
|
|
189
|
+
registry=[SPDXParser],
|
|
190
|
+
alias=[AliasParser],
|
|
191
|
+
family=[AliasParser],
|
|
192
|
+
name=[AliasParser],
|
|
193
|
+
cache=True,
|
|
194
|
+
cache_maxsize=8192,
|
|
195
|
+
)
|
|
196
|
+
|
|
197
|
+
# MIT resolves via SPDX parser
|
|
198
|
+
assert str(ln.normalise_license("MIT")) == "mit"
|
|
199
|
+
|
|
200
|
+
# CC BY resolves via Alias
|
|
201
|
+
assert str(ln.normalise_license("CC BY-NC-ND 4.0")) == "cc-by-nc-nd-4.0"
|
|
202
|
+
|
|
203
|
+
.. note::
|
|
204
|
+
|
|
205
|
+
Explicit plugin passing is optional — ``LicenseNormaliser()``
|
|
206
|
+
automatically loads defaults. Use the pattern above only if you need
|
|
207
|
+
custom plugins or reduce number of plugins loaded.
|
|
208
|
+
|
|
209
|
+
For caching, ``LicenseNormaliser`` wraps the resolution method
|
|
210
|
+
with ``lru_cache``.
|
|
211
|
+
Disable it by passing ``cache=False`` for debugging:
|
|
212
|
+
|
|
213
|
+
.. code-block:: python
|
|
214
|
+
:name: test_caching
|
|
215
|
+
|
|
216
|
+
from licence_normaliser import LicenseNormaliser
|
|
217
|
+
|
|
218
|
+
ln = LicenseNormaliser(cache=False)
|
|
219
|
+
result = ln.normalise_license("MIT")
|
|
220
|
+
|
|
221
|
+
Update data (CLI)
|
|
222
|
+
=================
|
|
223
|
+
|
|
224
|
+
.. code-block:: sh
|
|
225
|
+
|
|
226
|
+
licence-normaliser update-data --force
|
|
227

229
|
+
Integration tests (public API only)
|
|
230
|
+
===================================
|
|
231
|
+
|
|
232
|

All integration tests live in
|
|
233
|
+
``src/licence_normaliser/tests/test_integration.py``
|
|
234
|
+
and only import the public API.
