Release Notes & Changelog Generation

cmd/release-notes is a simple wrapper around github to generate a CHANGELOG. It uses graphql to cather the list of all commits, and then examines an existing CHANGELOG file to suggest the omissions.

It categorizes the commits based on simple logic based on the PR labels.

Output will be displayed to stdout.

The expected workflow is to have a clean checkout on a branch ready for the PR. Run this cmd, take the output, and update the CHANGELOG file. As you edit and categorize, you can re-run the script to see the omissions.

The underlying implementation uses timestamps to generate the diff between the labels, because that's what git supports.

How to use

This is written in go and you will need the go tool chain installed.

It may be run in place with a command like:

go run ./cmd/release-notes --help

As an example:

export GITHUB_TOKEN=`gh config get -h github.com oauth_token`

go run ./cmd/release-notes --changelog ~/checkouts/osquery/osquery/CHANGELOG.md  --last 5.12.1 --new 5.12.2
