+This package parses [SPDX license expression](https://spdx.org/spdx-specification-21-web-version#h.jxpfx0ykyb60) strings describing license terms, like [package.json license strings](https://docs.npmjs.com/files/package.json#license), into consistently structured ECMAScript objects. The npm command-line interface depends on this package, as do many automatic license-audit tools.
+
+In a nutshell:
+
+```javascript
+var parse = require('spdx-expression-parse')
+var assert = require('assert')
+
+assert.deepEqual(
+ // Licensed under the terms of the Two-Clause BSD License.
+ parse('BSD-2-Clause'),
+ {license: 'BSD-2-Clause'}
+)
+
+assert.throws(function () {
+ // An invalid SPDX license expression.
+ // Should be `Apache-2.0`.
+ parse('Apache 2')
+})
+
+assert.deepEqual(
+ // Dual licensed under either:
+ // - LGPL 2.1
+ // - a combination of Three-Clause BSD and MIT
+ parse('(LGPL-2.1 OR BSD-3-Clause AND MIT)'),
+ {
+ left: {license: 'LGPL-2.1'},
+ conjunction: 'or',
+ right: {
+ left: {license: 'BSD-3-Clause'},
+ conjunction: 'and',
+ right: {license: 'MIT'}
+ }
+ }
+)
+```
+
+The syntax comes from the [Software Package Data eXchange (SPDX)](https://spdx.org/), a standard from the [Linux Foundation](https://www.linuxfoundation.org) for shareable data about software package license terms. SPDX aims to make sharing and auditing license data easy, especially for users of open-source software.
+
+The bulk of the SPDX standard describes syntax and semantics of XML metadata files. This package implements two lightweight, plain-text components of that larger standard:
+
+1. The [license list](https://spdx.org/licenses), a mapping from specific string identifiers, like `Apache-2.0`, to standard form license texts and bolt-on license exceptions. The [spdx-license-ids](https://www.npmjs.com/package/spdx-exceptions) and [spdx-exceptions](https://www.npmjs.com/package/spdx-license-ids) packages implement the license list. `spdx-expression-parse` depends on and `require()`s them.
+
+ Any license identifier from the license list is a valid license expression:
+
+ ```javascript
+ var identifiers = []
+ .concat(require('spdx-license-ids'))
+ .concat(require('spdx-license-ids/deprecated'))
+
+ identifiers.forEach(function (id) {
+ assert.deepEqual(parse(id), {license: id})
+ })
+ ```
+
+ So is any license identifier `WITH` a standardized license exception:
+
+ ```javascript
+ identifiers.forEach(function (id) {
+ require('spdx-exceptions').forEach(function (e) {
+ assert.deepEqual(
+ parse(id + ' WITH ' + e),
+ {license: id, exception: e}
+ )
+ })
+ })
+ ```
+
+2. The license expression language, for describing simple and complex license terms, like `MIT` for MIT-licensed and `(GPL-2.0 OR Apache-2.0)` for dual-licensing under GPL 2.0 and Apache 2.0. `spdx-expression-parse` itself implements license expression language, exporting a parser.
+
+ ```javascript
+ assert.deepEqual(
+ // Licensed under a combination of:
+ // - the MIT License AND
+ // - a combination of:
+ // - LGPL 2.1 (or a later version) AND
+ // - Three-Clause BSD
+ parse('(MIT AND (LGPL-2.1+ AND BSD-3-Clause))'),
+ {
+ left: {license: 'MIT'},
+ conjunction: 'and',
+ right: {
+ left: {license: 'LGPL-2.1', plus: true},
+ conjunction: 'and',
+ right: {license: 'BSD-3-Clause'}
+ }
+ }
+ )
+ ```
