Feature Request: Add license info to the library JSON file

[curioustechizen]

In addition to the existing info, it would be great to add a license field to the library JSON file.

Use case: auto generate the "Open Source Licenses" or equivalent screen at runtime.

We can easily add the license information to the JSON.

Any suggestion on how to handle the case where we cannot easily find out the license or when the SDK/library code is proprietary?

Hadn't thought of that. Maybe you could just have a field "license" that basically takes an enum - say "lgplv3" or "asl2.0" etc. It could have "proprietary" or "unknown" for cases where the license cannot be determined etc.

Having said that, I'm thinking going to such lengths might defeat the original purpose of having the license info in the first place 😁
