SovTech's shareable semantic-release configuration

This shareable configuration uses the following plugins:

• @semantic-release/commit-analyzer
• @semantic-release/release-notes-generator
• @semantic-release/npm
• @semantic-release/git
• semantic-release-slack-bot

• Provides an informative git commit message for the release commit that does not trigger continuous integration and conforms to the conventional commits specification (e.g., "chore(release): 1.2.3 [skip ci]\n\nnotes").
• Commits the version change in package.json.
• Creates or updates a changelog file.
• Posts updates from above changelog to a slack channel.

With Yarn

$ yarn add -D semantic-release @sovtech/semantic-release-config

With NPM

$ npm install --save-dev semantic-release @sovtech/semantic-release-config

The shareable config can be configured in the semantic-release configuration file:

Via release key in the project's package.json file:

{
  "release": {
    "extends": "@sovtech/semantic-release-config"
  }
}

Via .releaserc file:

{
  "extends": "@sovtech/semantic-release-config"
}
