📦🚀 + 📓 A continuous integration build tool to ensure all new commits meet your commit message format!

• 📦🚀 semantic-release depends on properly formatted commit messages
• 📓 commitlint is awesome, but it doesn't know which commits occurred since your last release

• semantic-commitlint fills the gap by providing a hook for semantic-release that asks commitlint to lint new commit messages that have not been included in a previous release

• Run in CI on all branches to ensure that only builds with valid commit messages pass
• Wraps semantic-release and commitlint for an easy install
• No config

npm install semantic-commitlint --save-dev

Add the following to your semantic-release release block (e.g. in the release field of your package.json)

{
  "verifyRelease": ["semantic-commitlint"]
}

Setup semantic-release authentication for CI

semantic-commitlint currently only supports @commitlint/config-conventional - please open a PR if you need support for other configurations!

Simply run semantic-release as normal as part of your CI build process

If there are unreleased commits that shouldn't fail a build, then add them to the SEMANTIC_COMMITLINT_SKIP environment variable as comma-separated GIT SHAs. This should be uncommon, provided your development workflow lints the commits before they get added to the release branch.

// This is the package.json of the package you're trying to publish.
// Just add the SEMANTIC_COMMITLINT_SKIP prefix to the semantic-release command!
{
  "scripts": {
    "semantic-release": "SEMANTIC_COMMITLINT_SKIP=a1be371 semantic-release"
  }
}

This project just ties together some functionality from two external projects. For all other config options make sure to read through the docs.

Not all features implemented in semantic-release and commitlint are currently available when using semantic-commtlint. If you have a suggestion, please open an issue. Thanks!
