What's the license for this repo?

Is it AGPL-3.0-or-later as per https://github.com/emoncms/emoncms ?

cagabi commented 5 years ago

Not sure about the "later" The only reference to licnse is what we added on the beginning of the files (like many other emonCMS files"

All Emoncms code is released under the GNU Affero General Public License.

https://github.com/emoncms/emoncms/blob/master/COPYRIGHT.txt#L6-L9 says otherwise (at least for the main/central/whatever repo)

Do you think this module nee to have a similar copyright?

reedy commented 5 years ago

The module needs a copyright, yes. I'm not so bothered about what it is (IANAL), for ease, it's easier if it's the same as the parent project

I believe this counts as a derivative of https://github.com/emoncms/enomcms but don't quote me on that

We believe open source is a better way of doing things. Emoncms is available under the GPL Affero licence (AGPL).

So, as per https://help.github.com/en/articles/licensing-a-repository

For your repository to truly be open source, you'll need to license it so that others are free to use, change, and distribute the software.

:)

I have added a copyright and copied the license. I think it should be now, have a look. Thanks
