rules_license
CI: 
This repository contains a set of rules and tools for
- declaring metadata about packages, such as
- the licenses the package is available under
- the canonical package name and version
- copyright information
- ... and more TBD in the future
- gathering license declarations into artifacts to ship with code
- applying organization specific compliance constriants against the set of packages used by a target.
- producing SBOMs for built artifacts.
WARNING: The code here is still in active initial development and will churn a lot.
