Configuration

You can specify options in .vcmrc. It must be valid JSON file. The default configuration object is:

{
  "types": ["feat", "fix", "docs", "style", "refactor", "perf", "test", "build", "ci", "chore", "revert"],
  "scope": {
    "required": false,
    "allowed": ["*"],
    "validate": false,
    "multiple": false
  },
  "warnOnFail": false,
  "maxSubjectLength": 100,
  "subjectPattern": ".+",
  "subjectPatternErrorMsg": "subject does not match subject pattern!",
  "helpMessage": "",
  "autoFix": false
}

types

These are the types that are allowed for your commit message. If omitted, the value is what is shown above.

You can also specify: "types": "*" to indicate that you don't wish to validate types.

scope

This object defines scope requirements for the commit message. Possible properties are:

1. required

A boolean to define whether a scope is required for all commit messages.

2. allowed

An array of scopes that are allowed for your commit message.

You may also define it as "*" which is the default to allow any scope names.

3. validate

A boolean to define whether or not to validate the scope(s) provided.

4. multiple

A boolean to define whether or not to allow multiple scopes.

warnOnFail

If this is set to true errors will be logged to the console, however the commit will still pass.

maxSubjectLength

This will control the maximum length of the subject.

subjectPattern

Optional, accepts a RegExp to match the commit message subject against.

subjectPatternErrorMsg

If subjectPattern is provided, this message will be displayed if the commit message subject does not match the pattern.

helpMessage

If provided, the helpMessage string is displayed when a commit message is not valid. This allows projects to provide a better developer experience for new contributors.

The helpMessage also supports interpolating a single %s with the original commit message.

autoFix

If this is set to true, type will be auto fixed to all lowercase, subject first letter will be lowercased, and the commit will pass (assuming there's nothing else wrong with it).
