reuse-download - Download license files

reuse download [options] [license ...]

reuse-download downloads licenses into your LICENSES/ directory.

The license arguments must be SPDX License Identifiers.

The LICENSES/ directory will be found in the root of your project. If you are already in a directory named LICENSES and you are not in a VCS repository, that directory will be used.

If no LICENSES/ directory exists, one will be created.

Download all licenses detected missing in the project.
If downloading a single file, output it to a specific file instead of putting it in a detected LICENSES/ directory.
Specify a source from which to copy custom LicenseRef- files. This can be a directory containing such file, or a path to the file itself.
Display help and exit.
