[Buildroot] [PATCH v3] core/legal-info: Generate web page with minimal legal info

Mickaël Tansorier mickael.tansorier at smile.fr
Wed Oct 30 16:17:48 UTC 2019


Html page is generate by python script in `support/scripts/web-legal-info`.
This script is called from Makefile at end of `legal-info` command.
Output is `index.html` in legal-info subdirectory.
This page contain informations about:
 - buildroot config
 - target packages: package name, version, licenses and sources
 - host packages: package name, version, licenses and sources

This script need `legal-info` output path in arguments and it need files:
  - `manifest.csv`
  - `host-manifest.csv`
`index.html` refers to other files in the legal-info directory:
  - `buildroot.config`
  - `sources/`
  - `host-sources/`
  - `licenses/`
  - `host-licenses/`
So only packages used to build image from config are listed.

Limitation: `web-legal-info` script depend of `legal-info` manifest format, output
`*sources` folder structure and `*licenses` folder structure.
