To add the license checker to your project's main branch, assuming your main branch is called main, do the following when your console is located in the root of your GitHub project in your local computer:
git remote add license-checker [email protected]:Neuraxio/Python-Requirements-License-Checker.git
git fetch --all
git checkout action
git pull license-checker action
git checkout main
git merge action --allow-unrelated-histories
git push origin mainYou may edit the line 4 and 7 of your copy of the file ./.github/workflows/python_license_checker.yml to change the branch on which the action happen.
You may as well change the checked licenses at lines 13-18 of ./.github/workflows/license_checker_v2.py.
You can see an example of the action in the example branch. Do not use the python python_license_checker.yml file in that branch because it has been modified to execute on push and pull request on that specific branch only. You can push changes to the requirements.txt file of your fork or copy of this example branch to test it and visualize the checks in your project's GitHub UI.
