@changesets/parse


Parses a changeset from its written format to a data object.

``js
import parse from "@changesets/parse";

const changeset = ---
"@changesets/something": minor
"@changesets/something-else": patch
---

A description of a minor change;

const parsedChangeset = parse(changeset);
`

For example, it can convert:

`md
---
"@changesets/something": minor
"@changesets/something-else": patch
---

A description of a minor change
`

to

`json
{
"summary": "A description of a minor change",
"releases": [
{ "name": "@changesets/something", "type": "minor" },
{ "name": "@changesets/something-else", "type": "patch" }
]
}
`

Note that this is not quite a complete Changeset for most tools as it lacks an id`.

For written changesets, the id is normally given as the file name, which parse is not aware of.
