Description

Description

Do not allow licenses to exist without any obligations.

Desired Behaviour:

  • New licenses cannot be created unless they have some obligations attached.
  • On updation, the obligations attached to a license cannot be 0.
  • On import via json, do not create licenses with no obligations.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the license creation, update, and import logic in the codebase. Focus on how obligations are associated with licenses and where validation can be added to ensure at least one obligation is present.
