Build Metabase Tooling

This project is to build the Metabase jar. It can be called standalone and is also called from the release project when creating releases.

License Information

We create license information for all of our dependencies, both frontend and backend, and package them in our jar.

Tests will run in CI that we have license information for all dependencies. If you see these failing, an easy way to get a report of dependencies without license information can be obtained by running

clojure -X:build:build/list-without-license
...
All dependencies have licenses

If there are dependencies with missing license information you will see output like

clojure -X:build:build/list-without-license
$ "clojure" "-A:ee" "-Spath"
Missing License: /Users/dan/.m2/repository/org/eclipse/jetty/jetty-webapp/9.3.19.v20170502/jetty-webapp-9.3.19.v20170502.jar

Missing License: /Users/dan/.m2/repository/colorize/colorize/0.1.1/colorize-0.1.1.jar

You can check the overrides file (resources/overrides.edn) and add the license information there, or perhaps improve the license discovery mechanism in the code.
