npx lint-commit-message <path>

The <path> must point to a text file containing commit message that complies with the following pattern:

<type>[!]: <subject>

Where

• <type> can be either feat, fix, test, refactor or chore.
• ! indicates that the commit contains breaking changes.
• <subject> is the actual commit message where the first word must be written in lower cases.

Usage example with lefthook

# lefthook.yml
commit-msg:
  commands:
    lint:
      run: npx lint-commit-message {1}

npx auto-npm-version

This command is supposed to be run on CI, such as GitHub Actions. It will run npm version <new-version>, which <new-version> is automatically derived from your commit messages according to the table below and then it creates a new entry on GitHub releases.

Usage example with GitHub Actions

on:
  push:
    branches: [master]
jobs:
  release:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0 # Ensure Git tags are fetched
      - uses: actions/setup-node@v4
        with:
          node-version-file: 'package.json'
          cache: npm
      - run: npm ci # Install semantic-version as part of the dependencies
      - run: npx auto-npm-version
        env:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} # Make it possible to create a new release using GitHub API
