This package provides a command to post a short release note created from the commit history on Slack. This will mostly be useful on a CI/CD system.

Features :

• Good looking list of bullet points with hash, author and comment
• The hash has a link to the commit on GitHub, if you use GitHub

How to use

This utility requires node 10.x or above installed where your CI / CD works.

You may install it on your CI system, or simply use npx.

npx @jobteaser/slack-release-notes \
    --repo-url "https://github.com/org/project" \
    --tag-prefix "release-" \
    --project-name "project" \
    --webhook-url "<slack webhook url>" \
    --icon-emoji "package"

You can generate the <slack webhook url> by creating a new "Incomming Webhook" from the Custom Integrations page
