Use @commitlint/config-conventional with the new preset format

[nicolas-goudry]

Hello, I have an issue using the @commitlint/config-conventional config with semantic-release v22.

With v21, I was using the following configuration :

{
  "branches": [
    "master",
    {
      "name": "develop",
      "prerelease": "beta"
    }
  ],
  "plugins": [
    [
      "@semantic-release/commit-analyzer",
      {
        "config": "@commitlint/config-conventional",
        "releaseRules": [
          {
            "breaking": true,
            "release": "major"
          },
          {
            "type": "feat",
            "release": "minor"
          },
          {
            "type": "fix",
            "release": "patch"
          },
          {
            "type": "perf",
            "release": "patch"
          },
          {
            "type": "refactor",
            "release": "patch"
          },
          {
            "type": "revert",
            "release": "patch"
          },
          {
            "type": "style",
            "release": "patch"
          },
          {
            "type": "test",
            "release": false
          },
          {
            "type": "build",
            "release": false
          },
          {
            "type": "chore",
            "release": "patch"
          },
          {
            "type": "ci",
            "release": false
          },
          {
            "type": "docs",
            "release": false
          }
        ]
      }
    ],
    "@semantic-release/release-notes-generator",
    "@semantic-release/changelog",
    [
      "@semantic-release/git",
      {
        "assets": [
          "package.json",
          "package-lock.json",
          "CHANGELOG.md"
        ]
      }
    ]
  ]
}

This was working fine until I updated to v22. I read the changelog and saw that the preset is using a new format, which is incompatible with the previous format used in v21.

However, I can’t find any documentation or guide on how I could keep using semantic-release with commitlint’s conventional config.

Could anyone please point me in the right direction ?

Thanks !

in short, the preset needs to be updated to support the new format. it looks like this might be a start of that: conventional-changelog/commitlint#3698

until the preset is updated, you will need to avoid updating to v22 of semantic-release

Thanks for your answer, I’ll track the issue on commitlint repo and update to v22 when the preset gets updated then.

sounds good. i'll close this issue at this point then, but feel free to comment here if anything more is needed from the semantic-release side
