:rocket: :female_detective: Semantic-Release Commit Filter

This package is a shareable configuration for semantic-release that:

- configures tagFormat to use the package name from the current directory ${package.name}-v${version}
- uses commits only applicable to the current directory

:question: Why

Suppose you have a monorepo with two packages:

``
$ tree -P "package.json|release.config.js" -I node_modules mono-semver
mono-semver
├── package.json
├── packages
│ ├── pkg1
│ │ ├── package.json
│ │ └── release.config.js
│ └── pkg2
│ ├── package.json
│ └── release.config.js
└── release.config.js

3 directories, 6 files
`

Now we can run semantic-release in any of the package directories and/or in the top-level directory.

CHANGELOG.md files and package.json versions will be maintained in every directory.

:package: Installation

Make sure that if you have semantic-version installed globally, also install semantic-version-commit-filter globally. Same with local install.

`console
$ npm install --dev semantic-version-commit-filter

$ yarn install --dev semantic-version-commit-filter
`

> !! make sure you make semantic-release available in every package.json file. Additionally, every package directory needs its own semantic release configuration file.

:gear: Configuration

You can either specify this packages in your release config file:

`json
{
"extends": ["semantic-release-commit-filter"]
}
`

or specify it as a paramater to the semantic-release cli

`shell
$ npx semantic-release -e semantic-release-commit-filter
``
