REUSE compliance of nextcloud/updater

Unfortunately, github.com/nextcloud/updater is not REUSE compliant and does not fully adopt the recommendations to make software licensing easy for humans and machines alike. Have a look at our tutorial to learn about the three simple steps to become REUSE compliant.

Badge

To add the badge to your project's README.md file, use the following snippet: 

[![REUSE status](https://api.reuse.software/badge/github.com/nextcloud/updater)](https://api.reuse.software/info/github.com/nextcloud/updater)

Machine-readable information

The API provides machine-readable artifacts for automatic analysis.

  • All information about the latest compliance check can also be accessed via a machine-parsable JSON file.
  • You can gather the automatically generated SPDX SBOM in Tag:Value format, based on the reuse spdx command.

# RECOMMENDATIONS

* Fix missing licenses: For at least one of the license identifiers provided by
  the 'SPDX-License-Identifier' tags, there is no corresponding license text
  file in the 'LICENSES' directory. For SPDX license identifiers, you can simply
  run 'reuse download --all' to get any missing ones. For custom licenses
  (starting with 'LicenseRef-'), you need to add these files yourself.
* Fix invalid SPDX License Expressions: In one or more files there are SPDX
  License Expressions which cannot be parse. Check whether the value that
  follows 'SPDX-License-Identifier:' is correct. If the detected expression is
  not meant to be valid, put it between 'REUSE-IgnoreStart' and 'REUSE-
  IgnoreEnd' comments.
