1858 The regexp patterns follows the DefHash specification, and more
1859 specifically the structure of Regexp::Pattern, defining access to one
1860 pattern per DefHash object, as "pat".
1861 Additionally, (sub)patterns are available in plaintext form, as
1863 "pat.alt.*".
1864 SUBJECT
1866 Each pattern targets one or more subjects, i.e. ways to directly or
1867 indirectly represent a license.
1868 Beware that not all pattern objects fully cover all subjects.
1870 trait
1872 Distinguishing trait or feature expressed in licensing strings,
1873 e.g. an advertising clause or granting "...or any later version."
1874 Coverage for this subject is currently rather weak.
1876 name
1878 Distinguishing name, e.g. usable in license grant.
1879 grant
1881 Text granting the license.
1882 license
1884 Text containing licensing terms.
1885 Texts containing both license grant and licensing terms (e.g. BSD-
1887 and MIT-style licensing) may be classified as either subject grant
1888 or subject license. This may change, as needs for distinction is
1889 better understood.
1890 SCOPE
1892 Each pattern can process material within some scope, i.e. a certain
1893 sample size of the full subject.
1894 As an example, <https://codesearch.debian.net/> use line-based
1896 processing, where patterns spanning multiple lines are not applicable.
1897 line
1899 Pattern typically found within a single line. Typically this means
1900 less than 70 characters within scope.
1901 sentence
1903 Pattern matching within a sentence.
1904 May span multiple lines, but not across multiple sentences.
1906 Typically this means no full-stop or colon within scope.
1907 paragraph
1909 Pattern matching distinguishing paragraph.
1910 May span multiple sentences, but not multiple paragraphs.
1912 Typically this means no newline within scope.
1913 section
1915 Pattern matching distinguishing section.
1916 May span multiple paragraphs, but not multiple sections. Typically
1918 this means blank line within scope.
1919 multisection
1921 Pattern may span multiple sections.
1922 OBSOLETE OBJECTS
1924 License objects obsoleted by improved coverage of other objects, and
1925 provided only as dummy objects.
1926 • python
1928 Since v3.9.0.
1930 Replaced by "psf_2" and "python_2".
1932 • wordnet_3
1934 Since v3.9.0.
1936 Replaced by "wordnet".
1938 TAGS
1940 Pattern defhashes optionally includes tags, which may help in selecting
1941 multiple related patterns.
1942 Tags are hierarchical, with ":" as separator, and may be extended
1944 without notice. Therefore take care to permit sub-parts when tag-
1945 matching, e.g. using a regex like " /\Asome:tag(?:\z|:)/ ".
1946 • family:bsd
1948 • family:cc
1950 • family:gpl
1952 • family:mit
1954 • family:zlib
1956 Pattern covers a license part of a family of licenses.
1958 • license:contains:grant:*
1960 License mentions a preferred form for granting the license.
1962 This implies that license is commonly granted by use of a different
1964 (typically far shorter) text.
1965 Fourth part (optional) is the key to corresponding license pattern,
1967 for a grant belonging to a different license (when omitted then a
1968 grant for same license is assumed).
1969 • license:contains:license:*
1971 License contains another license.
1973 Wildcard is the key to corresponding license pattern.
1975 • license:contains:name:*
1977 License mentions name of another license.
1979 • license:includes:license:*
1981 License references coverage of another license.
1983 Wildcard is the key to corresponding license pattern.
1985 • license:is:grant
1987 License is commonly granted by stating the whole license.
1989 • license:published:*
1991 License grant may include an "as published by..." reference.
1993 Third part is the key to corresponding trait pattern.
1995 • type:trait:publisher:*
1997 Pattern covers an "as published by ..." license grant phrase.
1999 Third part (optional) is the key to corresponding license pattern.
2001 • type:usage:*:*
2003 Pattern covers a specific usage of a license.
2005 Third part is the key of the corresponding non-usage-specific
2007 pattern.
2008 Fourth part is the key of the corresponding usage trait pattern.
2010 • type:combo
2012 Pattern covers a combination of multiple licenses.
2014 • type:group
2016 Pattern covers either of multiple licenses.
2018 • type:singleversion:*
2020 Pattern covers a specific version of a license.
2022 Third part is the key of the corresponding non-version-specific
2024 pattern.
2025 • type:trait
2027 Pattern covers a single trait occuring in licenses.
2029 • type:unversioned
2031 Pattern covers a license without versioning scheme.
2033 • type:versioned:decimal
2035 Pattern covers a license using decimal number versioning scheme.
2037
2039 Browse patterns
2040 The "official" way to browse patterns is using App::RegexpPatternUtils:
2041 show-regexp-pattern-module --page-result -- License
2043 Unfortunately, App::RegexpPatternUtils has a deep dependency tree. An
2045 alternative is to use Data::Printer and "less":
2046 perl -CS -MRegexp::Pattern::License -MDDP -e 'p %Regexp::Pattern::License::RE, fulldump => 1, output => stdout' | less -RS
