@tophat/commitlint-config

Top Hat's shareable configuration for commitlint

Installation

Using Yarn:

yarn add @tophat/commitlint-config --dev

Or using npm:

npm install @tophat/commitlint-config --save-dev

Usage

Make sure you have commitlint setup in your repo

Create a file called commitlint.config.js and add the following snippet to it:

module.exports = {
    extends: ['@tophat/commitlint-config']
}

[Optional] Create a pre commit hook using husky to enforce automatic linting for every commit by adding this to your package.json file

{
  "husky": {
    "hooks": {
      "commit-msg": "commitlint -E HUSKY_GIT_PARAMS"
    }
  }
}

Git hooks can get parameters via command-line arguments and stdin. Husky makes them accessible to commitlint via HUSKY_GIT_PARAMS.
