Before Pushing to GitHub
1. Review Sensitive Files
Check for and remove any sensitive information:
# Check for sensitive files
Get-ChildItem -Recurse -Include *cookie*.json, auth_config.json, *.key, *.secret
2. Clean Up Development Files (Optional)
These are already in .gitignore but you may want to delete them:
# Remove local history (VS Code extension)
Remove-Item -Recurse -Force .history -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
# Remove Python cache
Get-ChildItem -Recurse -Directory -Filter __pycache__ | Remove-Item -Recurse -Force
# Remove desktop.ini if present
Remove-Item desktop.ini -Force -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
3. Test Installation
Before publishing, test the installation process:
# In a clean environment
git clone <your-repo-url>
cd PDF_tools
.\check_install.ps1
4. Initialize Git Repository
# Initialize git (if not already done)
git init
# Add all files
git add .
# Check what will be committed
git status
# Commit
git commit -m "Initial commit: PDF Tools for ComfyUI with licenses"
# Add remote and push
git remote add origin <your-github-url>
git branch -M main
git push -u origin main
License Compliance Notes
GPL/AGPL Dependencies
The following dependencies use GPL/AGPL licenses, which have specific requirements:
-
gallery-dl (GNU GPL v2)
- Used for web media downloading
- Source must be available if distributed
-
PyMuPDF/fitz (AGPL v3 for open source)
- Used for PDF processing
- Commercial license available from Artifex Software
- Your dual license is compatible for non-commercial use
- Commercial users must obtain PyMuPDF commercial license
-
Surya OCR (GNU GPL v3) - Optional dependency
- Only required if using Surya OCR nodes
Recommendation
Add a note to README about commercial licensing:
- Non-commercial use: All dependencies available under open-source licenses
- Commercial use: Contact you for commercial license + obtain PyMuPDF commercial license if using PDF features
Helper Scripts Created
add_license_headers.py
This script was created to add license headers to all Python files. It:
- Automatically detects module type from filename
- Adds appropriate third-party notes
- Skips files that already have headers
- Can be run again if new files are added
Usage:
python add_license_headers.py
