turn and face the strange
With chchchanges, users can create CHANGELOG entries from the command line. Each entry is saved as in individual .json file which prevents CHANGELOG merge conflicts.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'chchchanges'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install chchchanges
When starting a changelog from scratch, simply use the command $ chchchanges -e
and
follow the prompts to create a changelog entry. Than command will create a .json file with the changelog entry data. The file name will be unique, thereby ensuring that future changelog entries will not result in git merge conflicts. Every time you generate a changelog entry with the chchchanges -e
command, a new unique file is created.
But now I have a bunch of .json files with changelog data, and I want to have a nice CHANGELOG.md document
To generate a CHANGELOG.md document from your .json changelog entry files, run the command $ chchchanges -g
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
