Conventional Changelog plugin for release-it

This plugin will provide the recommended bump to release-it, and update the changelog file (e.g. CHANGELOG.md).

npm install --save-dev @release-it/conventional-changelog

Config

In the release-it config, for example:

"plugins": {
  "@release-it/conventional-changelog": {
    "preset": "angular",
    "infile": "CHANGELOG.md"
  }
}

...or another example:

"plugins": {
  "@release-it/conventional-changelog": {
    "infile": "CHANGELOG.md",
    "preset": {
      "name": "conventionalcommits",
      "types": [
        {
          "type": "feat",
          "section": "Features"
        },
        {
          "type": "fix",
          "section": "Bug Fixes"
        },
        {}
      ]
    }
  }
}

• Omit the infile at will. If set, but the file does not exist yet, it's created with the full history.
• Please find the list of available presets (angular, ember, etc).
• Options are passed verbatim to conventional-recommended-bump and conventional-changelog.

GitHub Actions

When using this plugin in a GitHub Action, make sure to set fetch-depth: 0 so the history is available to determine the correct recommended bump and changelog.
