The changelog text is generated by conventional-changelog-angular by default and it's over there that the type of commit to include in the change log are determined.
See https://github.com/conventional-changelog/conventional-changelog/blob/master/packages/conventional-changelog-angular/writer-opts.js#L45
If you want to include other type of commit in the changelog you can create your own preset (based on conventional-changelog-angular
) that would include all the commits type.
Alternatively you can use the conventional-changelog-conventionalcommits preset which support the types
option to define new types and if they should be included in the release note.
You semantic-release config would be:
{
"plugins": [
["@semantic-release/commit-analyzer", {
"preset": "conventionalcommits",
"releaseRules": [
{"type": "improvement", "release": "minor"}
]
}],
["@semantic-release/release-notes-generator", {
"preset": "conventionalcommits",
"presetConfig": {
"types": [
{"type": "feat", "section": "Features"},
{"type": "fix", "section": "Bug Fixes"},
{"type": "perf", "section": "Performance Improvements"},
{"type": "revert", "section": "Reverts"},
{"type": "docs", "section": "Documentation", "hidden": true},
{"type": "style", "section": "Styles", "hidden": true},
{"type": "chore", "section": "Miscellaneous Chores", "hidden": true},
{"type": "refactor", "section": "Code Refactoring", "hidden": true},
{"type": "test", "section": "Tests", "hidden": true},
{"type": "build", "section": "Build System", "hidden": true},
{"type": "ci", "section": "Continuous Integration", "hidden": true},
{"type": "improvement", "section": "Improvement", "hidden": false}
]
}
}]
]
}
I added the releaseRules
config for @semantic-release/commit-analyzer
as I assume you want to create a minor releases for improvement
commits.
