Commands

Run licensed -h to see help content for running licensed commands.

Most commands accept a -c/--config option to specify a path to a configuration file or directory. If a directory is specified, licensed will look in that directory for a file named (in order of preference):

.licensed.yml
.licensed.yaml
.licensed.json

If the option is not specified, the value will be set to the current directory.

Adding a new command

Implement new `Command` class

Licensed commands inherit and override the Licensed::Sources::Command class.

Required method overrides

Licensed::Commands::Command#evaluate_dependency
- Runs a command execution on an application dependency.

The evaluate_dependency method should contain the specific command logic. This method has access to the application configuration, dependency source enumerator and dependency currently being evaluated as well as a reporting hash to contain information about the command execution.

Optional method overrides

The following methods break apart the different levels of command execution. Each method wraps lower levels of command execution in a corresponding reporter method.

Licensed::Commands::Command#run
- Runs run_app for each application configuration found. Wraps the execution of all applications in Reporter#report_run.
Licensed::Commands::Command#run_app
- Runs run_source for each dependency source enumerator enabled for the application configuration. Wraps the execution of all sources in Reporter#report_app.
Licensed::Commands::Command#run_source
- Runs run_dependency for each dependency found in the source. Wraps the execution of all dependencies in Reporter#report_source.
Licensed::Commands::Command#run_dependency
- Runs evaluate_dependency for the dependency. Wraps the execution of all dependencies in Reporter#report_dependency.

As an example, Licensed::Commands::Command#run_app calls Reporter#report_app to wrap every call to Licensed::Commands::Command#run_source.

Specifying additional report data

The run methods can be overridden and pass a block to super to provide additional reporting data or functionality.

def run_app(app)
  super do |report|
    report["my_app_data"] = true
  end
end
