fsfe/reuse repository overview

This is the Docker image for the REUSE tool. Up-to-date information about the tool can be found at https://codeberg.org/fsfe/reuse-tool⁠.

You can run the helper tool simply by providing the command you want to run (e.g., lint, spdx). The image's working directory is /data by default. So if you want to lint a project that is in your current working directory, you can mount it on the container's /data directory, and tell the tool to lint. That looks a little like this:

docker run --rm --volume $(pwd):/data fsfe/reuse lint

You can also provide additional arguments, like so:

docker run --rm --volume $(pwd):/data fsfe/reuse --include-submodules spdx -o out.spdx

The available tags are:

• latest --- the most recent release of reuse.
• {major} --- the latest major release.
• {major}.{minor} --- the latest minor release.
• {major}.{minor}.{patch} --- a precise release.

You can add -debian to any of the tags to get a Debian-based instead of an Alpine-based image, which is larger, but may be better suited for license compliance.
