About:
Feluda is a command-line tool designed to scan your project's dependencies and detect potential license usage restrictions. It helps developers ensure compliance by identifying licenses that may conflict with their project's distribution model. This proactive approach prevents legal issues and simplifies open-source license management.
Key Features:
  • Scans dependency manifests (package.json, go.mod, etc.) for licenses
  • Detects restrictive licenses like AGPL, GPL, and others
  • Provides actionable reports on license compatibility
  • Supports multiple programming languages and ecosystems
  • Fast and easy to integrate into CI/CD pipelines
Use Cases:
  • Auditing open-source projects for license compliance before release
  • Integrating into CI/CD to block merges with non-compliant licenses
  • Generating license reports for corporate legal reviews
Alternatives:
  • FOSSA – Feluda is a lightweight, free CLI tool focused on quick scans, whereas FOSSA is a comprehensive commercial platform with advanced dependency management and legal compliance features.
  • license-checker – Feluda offers a more modern, multi-language approach with a focus on license restriction detection, while license-checker is primarily Node.js-centric and provides raw license data.
