cz-conventional-changelog

Part of the commitizen family. Prompts for conventional changelog standard and also prompts for a mandatory issue.

Features

• Works seamlessly with semantic-release 🚀

Quickstart

Installation

npm install commitizen @nois/cz-conventional-changelog

and then add the following to package.json:

{
  "scripts": {
    "commit": "git-cz"
  },
  "config": {
    "commitizen": {
      "path": "./node_modules/@nois/cz-conventional-changelog"
    }
  }
}

Usage

[TBD]

Configuration

Like commitizen, you can specify the configuration of cz-conventional-changelog through the package.json's config.commitizen key, or with environment variables.

| Environment variable | package.json | Default | Description | |----------------------|-----------------|-------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | CZ_PROJECT_KEY | projectKey | undefined | A default project key for issue. | | CZ_MAX_HEADER_WIDTH | maxHeaderWidth | 72 | This limits how long a commit message head can be. | | CZ_MIN_HEADER_WIDTH | minHeaderWidth | 2 | This limits how short a commit message can be. | | CZ_MAX_LINE_WIDTH | maxLineWidth | 100 | Commit message bodies are automatically wrapped. This decides how long the lines will be. | | CZ_SKIP_SCOPE | skipScope | true | If scope should be used in commit messages. | | | scopes | undefined | A list (JS Array) of scopes that will be available for selection. Note that adding this will change the scope field from Inquirer 'input' to 'list'. | | CZ_TYPE | defaultType | undefined | The default type. | | CZ_SCOPE | defaultScope | undefined | The default scope. | | CZ_CUSTOM_SCOPE | customScope | false | Whether user can provide custom scope in addition to predefined ones | | CZ_SUBJECT | defaultSubject | undefined | A default subject. | | CZ_BODY | defaultBody | undefined | A default body. | | CZ_ISSUES | defaultIssues | undefined | A default issue. | | CZ_ISSUE_KEY_PREPEND | issueKeyPrepend | "" | Prepends ISSUE ID with an optional decorator. e.g.: [DAZ-1234 | | CZ_ISSUE_KEY_APPEND | issueKeyAppend | "" | Appends ISSUE ID with an optional decorator. e.g.: DAZ-1234] | | CZ_EXCLAMATION_MARK | exclamationMark | false | On breaking changes, adds an exclamation mark (!) after the scope, e.g.: type(scope)!: break stuff. When activated, reduces the effective allowed header length by 1. |

Dynamic Configuration

Alternatively, if you want to create your own profile, you can use the configurable approach. Here is an example: ./index.js

const custom = require('@nois/cz-conventional-changelog/configurable');
// You can do this optionally if you want to extend the commit types
const defaultTypes = require('@nois/cz-conventional-changelog/types');

module.exports = custom({
  types: {
    ...defaultTypes,
    perf: {
      description: 'Improvements that will make your code perform better',
      title: 'Performance'
    }
  },
  skipScope: false,
  scopes: ['myScope1', 'myScope2'],
  customScope: true
});

./package.json

{
  "config": {
    "commitizen": {
      "path": "./index.js"
    }
  }
}

This example would:

• Display "perf" as an extra commit type
• Ask you to add a commit scope
• Limit the scope selection to either myScope or myScope2

List of all supported configurable options when using the configurable approach:

| Key | Default | Description | |-----------------|-------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | projectKey | true | A default project key for issue. | | maxHeaderWidth | 72 | This limits how long a commit message head can be. | | minHeaderWidth | 2 | This limits how short a commit message can be. | | maxLineWidth | 100 | Commit message bodies are automatically wrapped. This decides how long the lines will be. | | skipScope | true | If scope should be used in commit messages. | | defaultType | undefined | The default type. | | defaultScope | undefined | The default scope. | | defaultSubject | undefined | A default subject. | | defaultBody | undefined | A default body. | | defaultIssues | undefined | A default issue. | | types | ./types.js | A list (JS Object) of supported commit types. | | scopes | undefined | A list (JS Array) of scopes that will be available for selection. Note that adding this will change the scope field from Inquirer 'input' to 'list'. | | customScope | false | If this is set to true, users are given an option to provide custom scope aside the ones predefined in 'scopes' array. In this case a new option named 'custom' appears in the list and once chosen a prompt appears to provide custom scope | | issueKeyPrepend | "" | Prepends ISSUE ID with an optional decorator. e.g.: [DAZ-1234 | | issueKeyAppend | "" | Appends ISSUE ID with an optional decorator. e.g.: DAZ-1234] | | exclamationMark | false | On breaking changes, adds an exclamation mark (!) after the scope, e.g.: type(scope)!: break stuff. When activated, reduces the effective allowed header length by 1. |

Commitlint

If using the commitlint js library, the "maxHeaderWidth" configuration property will default to the configuration of the "header-max-length" rule instead of the hard coded value of 72. This can be ovewritten by setting the 'maxHeaderWidth' configuration in package.json or the CZ_MAX_HEADER_WIDTH environment variable.
