Add option to include a signature, conditionally. #21

Closed the-solipsist closed 3 years ago

the-solipsist commented 3 years ago

I've added an option to conditionally include a signature. I've changed the template, the yaml file, as well as the readme to provide instructions on how to use it.

Not sure about this one… who puts a signature on an invoice? I never had to send out a signed invoice nor ever received one. Couldn't find a country where signing invoices is required by law. Seems unnecessary to be honest.

In India, it is mandatory to have signed invoices (either through a pen-and-paper signature or through a digital (cryptographic) signature) for tax purposes, and there's software to help you do that as well.

And further, if there's a closingnote, then it makes sense to allow for an optional signature even in contexts where a signature isn't legally mandated.

My bad, looks like I didn't search hard enough. I'll have another look at this asap, reopening in the meantime.

Ended up implementing this myself in 7569fde, without adding any additional option, consistent with how the same feature is implemented in letter-boilerplate.

Thanks for the input!
