License updated issue #957

Closed Crispae closed 7 months ago

Crispae commented 7 months ago

Hi,

While seeding the repo, I missed adding appropriate license. I tried to changes it configuration file (onto-odk.yml) and run update_repo (I am directly running docker command instead of run.sh like docker run -v .:/work -w /work/src/ontology -ti obolibrary/odkfull make update_repo) and then run prepare_release. But the license remain default i.e. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/unspecified.

I tried to add both https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ and CC-BY 4.0 but no luck. From the code-base it looks, like license configuration is only handled while seeding , their is no option to update it later or by config file. Please clarify this, do we need to re initiate the project to change the license.

Regards

Hi @Crispae, you're right. Some of the configuration is only used once during the seed process. To update the ontology's license, you can do it directly into the src/ontology/pko-edit.owl (assuming this is the ontology you want to change).

Annotation(dcterms:license <https://creativecommons.org/licenses/unspecified>)

@anitacaron, thank you for your reply. It would greatly assist developers to have clarification on what aspects are changeable and what remain unchangeable after the seeding process.

Thank you for your suggestion. I created an issue for this, and I'll close this one.
