$ npm install @semantic-release/release-notes-generator -D
The plugin can be configured in the semantic-release configuration file:
{
"plugins": [
["semantic-release/commit-analyzer", {
"preset": "angular",
"parserOpts": {
"noteKeywords": ["BREAKING CHANGE", "BREAKING CHANGES", "BREAKING"]
},
}],
["semantic-release/release-notes-generator", {
"preset": "angular",
"parserOpts": {
"noteKeywords": ["BREAKING CHANGE", "BREAKING CHANGES", "BREAKING"]
},
"writerOpts": {
"commitsSort": ["subject", "scope"],
}
}]
]
}
