A parser for Conventional Commits v1.0 commit messages.
Fu powers to parse your commits!
This repository provides a library to parse your commit messages according to the Conventional Commits v1.0 specification.
go get github.com/reviewpad/go-conventionalcommitsThe parser/docs directory contains .dot and .png files representing the finite-state machines (FSMs) implementing the parser.
Your code base uses only single line commit messages like this one?
feat: awesomenessNo problem at all since the body and the footer parts are not mandatory:
m, _ := parser.NewMachine().Parse([]byte(`feat: awesomeness`))Imagine you have a commit message like this:
docs: correct minor typos
see the issue for details
on docs edits.

Refs #133Go with this:
opts := []conventionalcommits.MachineOption{
WithTypes(conventionalcommits.TypesConventional),
}
res, err := parser.NewMachine(opts...).Parse(i)Or, more simpler:
res, err := parser.NewMachine(WithTypes(conventionalcommits.TypesConventional)).Parse(i)This library provides support for different types sets:
- minimal: fix, feat
- conventional: build, ci, chore, docs, feat, fix, perf, refactor, revert, style, test
At the moment, those types are at build time. Which means users can't configure them at runtime.
Anyway, there's also a free-form types set that accepts any combination of printable characters (before the separator after which the commit description starts) as a valid type.
You can choose the type set passing the WithTypes(conventionalcommits.TypesConventional) option as shown above.
A parser behaviour is configurable by using options.
You can set them calling a function on the parser machine.
p := parser.NewMachine()
p.WithBestEffort()
res, err := p.Parse(i)Or you can provide options to NewMachine(...) directly.
p := parser.NewMachine(WithBestEffort())
res, err := p.Parse(i)The best effort mode will make the parser return what it found until the point it errored out, if it found (at least) a valid type and a valid description.
Let's make an example.
Suppose this input commit message:
fix: description
a blank line is mandatory to start the body part of the commit message!The input does not respect the Conventional Commits v1 specification because it lacks a blank line after the description (before the body).
Anyways, if the parser you're using has the best effort mode enabled, you can still obtain some structured data since at least a valid type and description have been found!
res, err := parser.NewMachine(WithBestEffort()).Parse(i)The result will contain a ConventionalCommit struct instance with the Type and the Description fields populated and ignore the rest after the error column.
The parser will still return the error (with the position information), so that you can eventually use it.
To run the benchmark suite execute the following command.
make benchAll the parsers have the best effort mode on.
On my machine1, these are the results for the slim parser with the default - ie., minimal, commit message types.
