## 项目历史与用法

FOSSA CLI is the command-line client for FOSSA's dependency analysis, license compliance, security scanning, attribution, and SBOM-oriented workflows. It is packaged as the `fossa` executable and distributed for local developer use and CI automation.

### 项目历史

The public `fossas/fossa-cli` repository was created in 2018. The README describes the tool as zero-configuration, polyglot dependency analysis that detects dependencies in a codebase or build and uploads analysis results to the FOSSA web application.

The repository documentation grew into a user manual covering integration walkthroughs, analysis targets, vendored dependencies, manual dependencies, container scanning, SBOM analysis, debugging, and command references.

### 采用历史

The README documents installation by shell script, PowerShell, GitHub Releases, Scoop, and a Homebrew cask, with the cask updated automatically. It also displays a downloads badge in the millions, indicating broad binary distribution through GitHub Releases.

### 使用方式

A typical workflow is to install `fossa`, set `FOSSA_API_KEY`, run `fossa analyze` in a project directory, review results in the FOSSA web application, and optionally gate CI with `fossa test` or integrate with GitHub status checks.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

FOSSA CLI is representative of compliance tooling becoming a package-manager-aware developer tool. Its value comes from recognizing many language ecosystems and build tools, combining static and dynamic dependency strategies, and turning local package metadata into organization-level license and vulnerability reports.

### 时间线

- 2018: The public `fossas/fossa-cli` repository was created.
- 2023: FOSSA's hosted docs version metadata records the current docs line as created in July 2023.
- 2026: v3.17.11 was published on GitHub Releases.

### Related projects

- FOSSA CLI is related to the FOSSA web application, FOSSA API keys, GitHub status integrations, SBOM workflows, container scanners, and the package managers and build systems it analyzes across JavaScript, Python, Go, Java, .NET, Rust, Haskell, Fortran, and other ecosystems.
