Hello, such a nice repository benefits me a lot and so kind of you to make it open source!

Question There’s some possible legal issues on the license of your repository when you combine numerous third-party packages. For instance, random, argparse and datetime you imported are licensed with Python Software Foundation License, Python Software Foundation License and Zope Public License (ZPL 2.1), respectively. However, the Apache License of your repository are less strict than above package licenses on some terms, which has violated the whole license compatibility in your repository and may bring legal and financial risks.

Advice You can select another proper license for your repository, or write a custom license with license exception if some license terms couldn’t be summed up consistently.

Best wishes!
