⁠How it's built

⁠LICENSE

Dual licensed under MIT and GNU General Public License v3.0+ (GPLv3)

The user may choose whichever license better suits their needs.

The user should be aware that this Docker image includes the file x_stdout_json_lines.py which is an Ansible Callback Plugin which is coded to extend the default stdout plugin⁠ which itself is GPLv3 licensed.

Therefore, usage of this Ansible Callback Plugin likely implies dynamic linking under the terms of the GPLv3 license, so work based on it likely also needs to be GPLv3 compliant (see the GPL FAQ here⁠).

However, this licensing restriction should only apply to the source code of the work which encompasses the definition of the Dockerfile for building the Docker image.

Later execution of the Docker image which contains x_stdout_json_lines.py from some non-GPL external work should not constituate a "single combined program" with regard to the x_stdout_json_lines.py Ansible Callback Plugin.
