Class that provides SPDX tooling from the SPDX license database file.

find_closest_license_match(license_field: str) → str | None

Given a license string from a recipe file (from /about/license), return the most likely ID in the SPDX database by string approximation.

TODO Future: We might want to evaluate these tools for future use as they likely do a better job at matching licenses to the SPDX standard.
