commitlint-config-ghostwriter v1.1.2

You want to leverage commitlint to enforce a consistent commit messages that can be parsed to generate a CHANGELOG.md but none of the available presets support your commit types or tools, e.g., Bitbucket, JIRA, Trello. This preset supports configuration via a .changelogrc.js file.

This package is best used alongside the other ghostwriter tools. Each tool can be configured using the same .changelogrc.js file:

• conventional-changelog-ghostwriter
• cz-ghostwriter

Installation

npm install --save-dev commitlint-config-ghostwriter

pnpm install --save-dev commitlint-config-ghostwriter

yarn add --dev commitlint-config-ghostwriter

Usage

1. Create and configure a .changelogrc.js file in the root of your repository

2. Update commitlint to leverage commitlint-config-ghostwriter

   module.exports = {
     extends: ['ghostwriter'],
   };

3. Run commitlint

Configuration

scopes : Scope[] | undefined

The array of scopes that are available for selection when commiting. If left undefined, then any scope may be entered when committing.

type Scope = { description: string; type: string };

types : Array<HiddenType | VisibleType>

The array of type objects representing the explicitly supported commit message types, and whether they should show up in generated CHANGELOGs.

type CommitType = { description: string; type: string };

type HiddenType = CommitType & { hidden: true; section: undefined };

type VisibleType = CommitType & { hidden: undefined; section: string };
