## API

### tinyLicense(*packageData* [, *option*])

*packageData*: `Object`  

*option*: `Object`  

Return: `String`

It takes data of a package definition file, like [package.json](https://www.npmjs.org/doc/files/package.json.html) and [bower.json](https://github.com/bower/bower.json-spec), and returns a string of JavaScript block comment which represents the license of the package.

It uses the follwing properties of data:

* `name`

* `author` or `authors`

* `license` or `licenses`

* `homepage`

All of them are optional.

```javascript

var json = {

  name: 'foo',

  authors: [

    'John Smith  (baz.com)',

    {

      name: 'Mary Sue',

      email: 'qux@email'

    }

  ],

  license: 'CC0-1.0',

  homepage: 'http://nodejs.org/'

};

tinyLicense(json);

//=>

/*!

 * foo | CC0-1.0 (c) John Smith, Mary Sue

 * http://nodejs.org/

*/

```

#### option.lastNewline

Type: `Boolean`  

Default: `true`

Setting this option `false` removes the last newline from the result.

```javascript

var json = {name: 'foo'};

tinyLicense(json);                       //=> '/*!\n * foo\n*/\n'

tinyLicense(json, {lastNewline: false}); //=> '/*!\n * foo\n*/'

```
