> Parse raw conventional commits


## Conventional Commit Message Format

A minimum input should contain a raw message.
Each commit message consists of a **merge header**, a **header** (mandatory), a **body** and a **footer**. **Mention** (optional) someone using the `@` notation.
```<merge><header><body><footer>```
### merge

The merge header may optionally have a special format that includes other parts, such as **branch**, **issueId** or **source**.
```Merge branch <branch>Merge pull request <issue-id> from <source>```
### header

The header may optionally have a special format that includes other parts, such as **type**, **scope** and **subject**. You could **reference** (optional) issues here.
```<type>(<scope>): <subject>```
### footer

The footer should contain any information about **Important Notes** (optional) and is also the place to **reference** (optional) issues.
```<important note><references>```
### other parts

This module will only parse the message body. However, it is possible to include other fields such as hash, committer or date.
```My commit message-sideNotes-It should warn the correct unfound file names.Also it should continue if one file cannot be found.Tests are added for these```
Then `sideNotes` will be `It should warn the correct unfound file names.\nAlso it should continue if one file cannot be found.\nTests are added for these`. You can customize the `fieldPattern`.

## Install

```sh$ npm install --save conventional-commits-parser```

## Usage

```jsvar conventionalCommitsParser = require('conventional-commits-parser');
conventionalCommitsParser(options);```
It returns a transform stream and expects an upstream that looks something like this:
```'feat(scope): broadcast $destroy event on scope destruction\nCloses #1''feat(ng-list): Allow custom separator\nbla bla bla\n\nBREAKING CHANGE: some breaking change.\nThanks @stevemao\n'```
Each chunk should be a commit. The downstream will look something like this:
```js{ type: 'feat',  scope: 'scope',  subject: 'broadcast $destroy event on scope destruction',  merge: null,  header: 'feat(scope): broadcast $destroy event on scope destruction',  body: null,  footer: 'Closes #1',  notes: [],  references:   [ { action: 'Closes',       owner: null,       repository: null,       issue: '1',       raw: '#1',       prefix: '#' } ],  mentions: [],  revert: null }{ type: 'feat',  scope: 'ng-list',  subject: 'Allow custom separator',  merge: null,  header: 'feat(ng-list): Allow custom separator',  body: 'bla bla bla',  footer: 'BREAKING CHANGE: some breaking change.\nThanks @stevemao',  notes:   [ { title: 'BREAKING CHANGE',       text: 'some breaking change.\nThanks @stevemao' } ],  references: [],  mentions: [ 'stevemao' ],  revert: null }```

## API

### conventionalCommitsParser([options])

Returns an transform stream. If there is any malformed commits it will be gracefully ignored (an empty data will be emitted so down stream can notice).
#### options

Type: `object`
##### mergePattern

Type: `regex` or `string` Default: null
Pattern to match merge headers. EG: branch merge, GitHub or GitLab like pull requests headers. When a merge header is parsed, the next line is used for conventionnal header parsing.
For example, if we have a commit
```Merge pull request #1 from user/feature/feature-name
feat(scope): broadcast $destroy event on scope destruction```
We can parse it with these options and the default headerPattern:
```js{  mergePattern: /^Merge pull request #(\d+) from (.*)$/,  mergeCorrespondence: ['id', 'source']}```
##### mergeCorrespondence

Type: `array` of `string` or `string` Default: null
Used to define what capturing group of `mergePattern`.
If it's a `string` it will be converted to an `array` separated by a comma.
##### headerPattern

Type: `regex` or `string` Default: `/^(\w*)(?:\(([\w\$\.\-\* ]*)\))?\: (.*)$/`
Used to match header pattern.
##### headerCorrespondence

Type: `array` of `string` or `string` Default `['type', 'scope', 'subject']`
Used to define what capturing group of `headerPattern` captures what header part. The order of the array should correspond to the order of `headerPattern`'s capturing group. If the part is not captured it is `null`. If it's a `string` it will be converted to an `array` separated by a comma.
##### referenceActions

Type: `array` of `string` or `string` Default:`[  'close',  'closes',  'closed',  'fix',  'fixes',  'fixed',  'resolve',  'resolves',  'resolved']`
Keywords to reference an issue. This value is case **insensitive**. If it's a `string` it will be converted to an `array` separated by a comma.
Set it to `null` to reference an issue without any action.
##### issuePrefixes

Type: `array` of `string` or `string` Default: `['#']`
The prefixes of an issue. EG: In `gh-123` `gh-` is the prefix.
##### noteKeywords

Type: `array` of `string` or `string` Default: `['BREAKING CHANGE']`
Keywords for important notes. This value is case **insensitive**. If it's a `string` it will be converted to an `array` separated by a comma.
##### fieldPattern

Type: `regex` or `string` Default: `/^-(.*?)-$/`
Pattern to match other fields.
##### revertPattern

Type: `regex` or `string` Default: `/^Revert\s"([\s\S]*)"\s*This reverts commit (\w*)\./`
Pattern to match what this commit reverts.
##### revertCorrespondence

Type: `array` of `string` or `string` Default: `['header', 'hash']`
Used to define what capturing group of `revertPattern` captures what reverted commit fields. The order of the array should correspond to the order of `revertPattern`'s capturing group.
For example, if we had commit
```Revert "throw an error if a callback is passed"
This reverts commit 9bb4d6c.```
If configured correctly, the parsed result would be
```js{  revert: {    header: 'throw an error if a callback is passed',    hash: '9bb4d6c'  }}```
It implies that this commit reverts a commit with header `'throw an error if a callback is passed'` and hash `'9bb4d6c'`.
If it's a `string` it will be converted to an `array` separated by a comma.
##### commentChar

Type: `string` or `null` Default: null
What commentChar to use. By default it is `null`, so no comments are stripped.Set to `#` if you pass the contents of `.git/COMMIT_EDITMSG` directly.
If you have configured the git commentchar via `git config core.commentchar` you'll want to pass what you have set there.
##### warn

Type: `function` or `boolean` Default: `function() {}`
What warn function to use. For example, `console.warn.bind(console)` or `grunt.log.writeln`. By default, it's a noop. If it is `true`, it will error if commit cannot be parsed (strict).
### conventionalCommitsParser.sync(commit, [options])

The sync version. Useful when parsing a single commit. Returns the result.
#### commit

A single commit to be parsed.
#### options

Same as the `options` of `conventionalCommitsParser`.

## CLI

You can use cli to practice writing commit messages or parse messages from files. Note: the sample output might be different. It's just for demonstration purposes.
```sh$ npm install --global conventional-commits-parser```
If you run `conventional-commits-parser` without any arguments
```sh$ conventional-commits-parser```
You will enter an interactive shell. To show your parsed output enter "return" three times (or enter your specified separator).
```sh> fix(title): a title is fixed


{"type":"fix","scope":"title","subject":"a title is fixed","header":"fix(title): a title is fixed","body":null,"footer":null,"notes":[],"references":[],"revert":null}```
You can also use cli to parse messages from files.
If you have log.txt
```textfeat(ngMessages): provide support for dynamic message resolution
Prior to this fix it was impossible to apply a binding to a the ngMessage directive to represent the name of the error.
BREAKING CHANGE: The `ngMessagesInclude` attribute is now its own directive and that must be placed as a **child** element within the element with the ngMessages directive.
Closes #10036Closes #9338```
And you run
```sh$ conventional-commits-parser log.txt# or
$ cat log.txt | conventional-commits-parser```
An array of json will be printed to stdout.
```sh[{"type":"feat","scope":"ngMessages","subject":"provide support for dynamic message resolution","header":"feat(ngMessages): provide support for dynamic message resolution","body":"Prior to this fix it was impossible to apply a binding to a the ngMessage directive to represent the name of the error.","footer":"BREAKING CHANGE: The `ngMessagesInclude` attribute is now its own directive and that must be placed as a **child** element within the element with the ngMessages directive.\nCloses #10036\nCloses #9338","notes":[{"title":"BREAKING CHANGE","text":"The `ngMessagesInclude` attribute is now its own directive and that must be placed as a **child** element within the element with the ngMessages directive."}],"references":[{"action":"Closes","owner":null,"repository":null,"issue":"10036","raw":"#10036"},{"action":"Closes","owner":null,"repository":null,"issue":"9338","raw":"#9338"}],"revert":null}]```
Commits should be split by at least three newlines (`\n\n\n`) or you can specify a separator as the second argument.
Eg: in log2.txt
```text
docs(ngMessageExp): split ngMessage docs up to show its alias more clearly===
fix($animate): applyStyles from options on leave
Closes #10068```
And you run
```sh$ conventional-commits-parser log2.txt '==='```
```sh[{"type":"docs","scope":"ngMessageExp","subject":"split ngMessage docs up to show its alias more clearly","header":"docs(ngMessageExp): split ngMessage docs up to show its alias more clearly","body":null,"footer":null,"notes":[],"references":[],"revert":null},{"type":"fix","scope":"$animate","subject":"applyStyles from options on leave","header":"fix($animate): applyStyles from options on leave","body":null,"footer":"Closes #10068","notes":[],"references":[{"action":"Closes","owner":null,"repository":null,"issue":"10068","raw":"#10068"}],"revert":null}]```
Will be printed out.
You can specify one or more files. The output array will be in order of the input file paths. If you specify more than one separator, the last one will be used.
