NAME

       Software::License::Custom - custom license handler

VERSION

       version 0.103004

DESCRIPTION

       This module extends Software::License to give the possibility of specifying all aspects related to a software license in a custom file.
       This allows for setting custom dates, notices, etc. while still preserving compatibility with all places where Software::License is used,
       e.g. Dist::Zilla.

       In this way, you should be able to customise some aspects of the licensing messages that would otherwise be difficult to tinker, e.g.
       adding a note in the notice, setting multiple years for the copyright notice or set multiple authors and/or copyright holders.

       The license details should be put inside a file that contains different sections. Each section has the following format:

       header line
	   This is a line that begins and ends with two underscores "__". The string between the begin and the end of the line is first depured of
	   any non-word character, then used as the name of the section;

       body
	   a Text::Template (possibly a plain text file) where items to be expanded are enclosed between double braces

       Each section is terminated by the header of the following section or by the end of the file. Example:

	  __[ NAME ]__
	  The Foo-Bar License
	  __URL__
	  http://www.example.com/foo-bar.txt
	  __[ META_NAME ]__
	  foo_bar_meta
	  __{ META2_NAME }__
	  foo_bar_meta2
	  __[ NOTICE ]__
	  Copyright (C) 2000-2002 by P.R. Evious
	  Copyright (C) {{$self->year}} by {{$self->holder}}.

	  This is free software, licensed under {{$self->name}}.

	  __[ LICENSE ]__
		      The Foo-Bar License

	  Well... this is only some sample text.  Verily... only sample text!!!

	  Yes, spanning more lines and more paragraphs.

       The different formats for specifying the section name in the example above are only examples, you're invited to use a consistent approach.

METHODS

   new
	  my $slc = Software::License::Custom->new({filename => 'LEGAL'});

       Create a new object. Arguments are passed through an anonymous hash, the following keys are allowed:

	 filename - the file where the custom software license details are stored

   load_sections_from
	  $slc->load_sections_from('MY-LEGAL-ASPECTS');

       Loads the different sections of the license from the provided filename.

       Returns the input object.

   section_data
	  my $notice_template_reference = $slc->section_data('NOTICE');

       Returns a reference to a textual template that can be fed to Text::Template (it could be simple text), according to what is currently
       loaded in the object.

MORE METHODS

       The following methods, found in all software license classes, look up and render the template with the capitalized form of their name.  In
       other words, the "license" method looks in the "LICENSE" template.

       For now, the "meta_name" and "meta2_name" methods return "custom" if called on the class.  This may become fatal in the future.

       o   name

       o   url

       o   meta_name

       o   meta2_name

       o   license

       o   notice

       o   fulltext

       o   version

Elements
   short_name
       The Copyright and License fields in the header paragraph may complement but do not replace the files paragraphs. They can be used to
       summarise the contributions and redistribution terms for the whole package, for instance when a work combines a permissive and a copyleft
       license, or to document a compilation copyright and license. It is possible to use only License in the header paragraph, but Copyright
       alone makes no sense.Optional. Type uniline.
