# @semantic-release/changelog
[**semantic-release**](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release) plugin to create or update a changelog file.
[![Build Status](https://github.com/semantic-release/changelog/workflows/Test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/semantic-release/changelog/actions?query=workflow%3ATest+branch%3Amaster) [![npm latest version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/@semantic-release/changelog/latest.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@semantic-release/changelog)
[![npm next version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/@semantic-release/changelog/next.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@semantic-release/changelog)
| Step | Description |
| ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `verifyConditions` | Verify the `changelogFile` and `changelogTitle` options configuration. |
| `prepare` | Create or update a changelog file in the local project directory with the changelog content created in the [generate notes step](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release#release-steps). |
## Install
```bash
$ npm install @semantic-release/changelog -D
```
## Usage
The plugin can be configured in the [**semantic-release** configuration file](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release/blob/master/docs/usage/configuration.md#configuration):
```json
{
"plugins": [
"@semantic-release/commit-analyzer",
"@semantic-release/release-notes-generator",
[
"@semantic-release/changelog",
{
"changelogFile": "docs/CHANGELOG.md"
}
],
[
"@semantic-release/git",
{
"assets": ["docs/CHANGELOG.md"]
}
]
]
}
```
With this example, for each release, a `docs/CHANGELOG.md` will be created or updated.
## Configuration
### Options
| Options | Description | Default |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | -------------- |
| `changelogFile` | File path of the changelog. | `CHANGELOG.md` |
| `changelogTitle` | Title of the changelog file (first line of the file). | - |
### Examples
When used with the [@semantic-release/git](https://github.com/semantic-release/git) or [@semantic-release/npm](https://github.com/semantic-release/npm) plugins the `@semantic-release/changelog` plugin must be called first in order to update the changelog file so the [@semantic-release/git](https://github.com/semantic-release/git) and [@semantic-release/npm](https://github.com/semantic-release/npm) plugins can include it in the release.
```json
{
"plugins": [
"@semantic-release/commit-analyzer",
"@semantic-release/release-notes-generator",
"@semantic-release/changelog",
"@semantic-release/npm",
"@semantic-release/git"
]
}
```
