Copyright Tools

Available Tools

tools/update_copyright_year.py

Use the name provided by --copyright-name to find the appropriate copyright line and update its year.

update_copyright_year.py --copyright-name "Foo Corp, Inc." *.py

Will find a line like:

# Copyright (c) 2015 Foo Corp, Inc.

and update it to be:

# Copyright (c) 2015-2016 Foo Corp, Inc.

Only comment lines are checked. Right now the assumption is that '#' or ';' marks a comment.

tools/update_copyright_name.py

Replaced --old-copyright with --new-copyright in the files specified.

update_copyright_name.py --old-copyright "Foo Corp, Inc." --new-copyright "Bar Corp, Inc."

Will find a line like:

# Copyright (c) 2015 Foo Corp, Inc.

and update it to be:

# Copyright (c) 2015 Bar Corp, Inc.

Only comment lines are checked. Right now the assumption is that '#' or ';' marks a comment.
