Flake8 Copyright plugin
=======================

Checks for copyright notices in all python files. It runs a simple regular expression search for
strings like::

Copyright 2014
Copyright (C) 2014

```` can be anything unless you specify it with the ``copyright-author`` option (see below).

Install
-------

Install with pip::

pip install flake8-copyright

Then, activate copyright checks in your flake8 configuration with::

copyright-check = True
# C errors are not selected by default, so add them to your selection
select = E,F,W,C

Further options
---------------

copyright-min-file-size
Minimum number of characters in a file before requiring a copyright notice. This is to avoid
forcing yourself to add copyright notices to very small or empty files. Default: ``0``.

copyright-author
Checks for a specific author in the copyright notice.

copyright-regexp
If you're not happy with the regexp that is ran to look for copyright notices, you can change it
with this option. Default: ``Copyright\s+(\(C\)\s+)?\d{4}([-,]\d{4})*\s+%(author)s``. ``%(author)s`` is
replaced by the contents of ``copyright-author``.
