Fix PR title or comment on your pr when it's not matched with the Conventional Commits spec

action-semantic-pull-request

do not use yet... T.T

This action is forked from amannn's action-semantic-pull-request.

1. choose action(comment or autofix) when pr title is needed to be fixed

• autofix: automatically fixes pr title when miss-spelled type and scope
• comment: adds comment on your pr (default is 'comment')

2. subject pattern allows white space after colon(:) you can control subject with subject pattern

3. I'm supposed to add inlcudeBranchNameToSubject option if needed

thank you :)

This is a Github Action that ensures that your PR title matches the Conventional Commits spec.

This is helpful when you're using semantic-release with the Conventional Commits preset. When using the "Squash and merge" strategy, Github will suggest to use the PR title as the commit message. With this action you can validate that the PR title will lead to a correct commit message and subsequently the expected release.

Validation

Examples for valid PR titles:

• fix: Correct typo.
• feat: Add support for Node 12.
• refactor!: Drop support for Node 6.
• feat(ui): Add Button component.

Note that since PR titles only have a single line, you have to use the ! syntax for breaking changes.

See Conventional Commits for more examples.

Example config

name: 'Lint PR'

on:
  pull_request_target:
    types:
      - opened
      - edited
      - synchronize

jobs:
  main:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      # Please look up the latest version from
      # https://github.com/roseline124/action-semantic-pull-request/releases
      - uses: roseline124/action-semantic-pull-request@vX.X.X
        env:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

Configuration

The action works without configuration, however you can provide options for customization.

with:
  # Configure which types are allowed.
  # Default: https://github.com/commitizen/conventional-commit-types
  types: |
    fix
    feat
  # Configure which scopes are allowed.
  scopes: |
    core
    ui
  # Configure that a scope must always be provided.
  requireScope: true
  # Configure additional validation for the subject based on a regex.
  # This example ensures the subject doesn't start with an uppercase character.
  subjectPattern: ^(?!\\s?[A-Z]).+$
  # If `subjectPattern` is configured, you can use this property to override
  # the default error message that is shown when the pattern doesn't match.
  # The variables `subject` and `title` can be used within the message.
  subjectPatternError: |
    The subject "{subject}" found in the pull request title "{title}"
    didn't match the configured pattern. Please ensure that the subject
    doesn't start with an uppercase character.
  # For work-in-progress PRs you can typically use draft pull requests
  # from Github. However, private repositories on the free plan don't have
  # this option and therefore this action allows you to opt-in to using the
  # special "[WIP]" prefix to indicate this state. This will avoid the
  # validation of the PR title and the pull request checks remain pending.
  # Note that a second check will be reported if this is enabled.
  wip: true
  # When using "Squash and merge" on a PR with only one commit, GitHub
  # will suggest using that commit message instead of the PR title for the
  # merge commit, and it's easy to commit this by mistake. Enable this option
  # to also validate the commit message for one commit PRs.
  validateSingleCommit: true
  # choose action the way to validate pr title
  # you can choose 'comment' | 'autofix'. default is 'comment'
  # comment: comment on pr when the validation was failed
  # autofix: automatically fix pr title when validation was failed
  action: comment

Event triggers

There are two events that can be used as triggers for this action, each with different characteristics:

1. pull_request_target: This allows the action to be used in a fork-based workflow, where e.g. you want to accept pull requests in a public repository. In this case, the configuration from the main branch of your repository will be used for the check. This means that you need to have this configuration in the main branch for the action to run at all (e.g. it won't run within a PR that adds the action initially). Also if you change the configuration in a PR, the changes will not be reflected for the current PR – only subsequent ones after the changes are in the main branch.
2. pull_request: This configuration uses the latest configuration that is available in the current branch. It will only work if the branch is based in the repository itself. If this configuration is used and a pull request from a fork is opened, you'll encounter an error as the Github token environment parameter is not available. This option is viable if all contributors have write access to the repository.
