This command is likely used to generate a license file with specified details like the author's name, release year, and license name.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
license
: This is a command, likely a program or script, used to generate licenses.--name ${author}
: This flag sets the name of the author to the value stored in the variable${author}
. The${author}
is likely a placeholder or variable that should be replaced with an actual author name before running the command.--year ${release_year}
: This flag sets the release year to the value stored in the variable${release_year}
. Similarly,${release_year}
is a placeholder or variable that should be replaced with the appropriate year.${license_name}
: This is likely another variable or placeholder that should be replaced with the specific name of a license to be generated. For example, it might be "MIT" or "GNU General Public License". The command would generate a license file corresponding to this specific license.
To use this command, you need to replace the variables ${author}
, ${release_year}
, and ${license_name}
with actual values, either directly or by using a suitable scripting mechanism depending on where this command is being executed.
