# Changelord, registrar of deeds extraordinaire
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Changelord is a changelog manager scratching my particular itches.
|
||
|
|
It's cli-based, and keep its data in a YAML file adhering
|
||
|
|
to a well-defined schema.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The first iteration of `changelord` was written [in Perl][original]. You can
|
||
|
|
read its [introductory article][blog] on my blog.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Installation

pnpm install changelord

|
||
|
|

|
|
||
|
|
### `changelord init`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Initializes the changelog source file. The YAML file is made of three
|
||
|
|
sections.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `project` -- contains information and configuration about the project itself.
|
||
|
|
- `releases` -- the entries for the changelog proper.
|
||

|
|
|
||
|
|

||

|
|
||

|
||
|

|
||
|

|
||
|

|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### `changelord cut`
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Cuts the next release. That is, resolves the `NEXT` version number based on the
|
||
|
|
latest version and the changes in the `NEXT` section, and sets its date as
|
||
|
|
today. Modifies the source file with the result.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### Options
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Outputs the changes listed in the `NEXT` release.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### `changelord latest-version`

|
|

|
||
|
