### Installation

```bash
npm install commitizen @pobidowski/cz-conventional-changelog-for-phabricator
```

and then add the following to package.json:

```json
{
  "scripts": {
    "commit": "git-cz"
  },
  "config": {
    "commitizen": {
      "path": "./node_modules/@pobidowski/cz-conventional-changelog-for-phabricator"
    }
  }
}
```

## Configuration

Like commitizen, you can specify the configuration of cz-conventional-changelog-for-phabricator through the package.json's `config.commitizen` key, or with environment variables.

| Environment variable | package.json   | Default   | Description                                                                                                                                                           |
| -------------------- | -------------- | --------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| CZ_PHABRICATOR_MODE  | phabricatorMode| true      | If this is set to true, CZ will ask for a Phabricator issue and put it in the commit head. If set to false CZ will ask for the issue in the end, and can be used for GitHub. |
| CZ_MAX_HEADER_WIDTH  | maxHeaderWidth | 72        | This limits how long a commit message head can be.                                                                                                                    |
| CZ_MIN_HEADER_WIDTH  | minHeaderWidth | 2         | This limits how short a commit message can be.                                                                                                                        |
| CZ_MAX_LINE_WIDTH    | maxLineWidth   | 100       | Commit message bodies are automatically wrapped. This decides how long the lines will be.                                                                             |
| CZ_SKIP_SCOPE        | skipScope      | true      | If scope should be used in commit messages.                                                                                                                           |
| CZ_TYPE              | defaultType    | undefined | The default type.                                                                                                                                                     |
| CZ_SCOPE             | defaultScope   | undefined | The default scope.                                                                                                                                                    |
| CZ_SUBJECT           | defaultSubject | undefined | A default subject.                                                                                                                                                    |
| CZ_BODY              | defaultBody    | undefined | A default body.                                                                                                                                                       |
| CZ_ISSUES            | defaultIssues  | undefined | A default issue.                                                                                                                                                      |

## Dynamic Configuration

Alternatively, if you want to create your own profile, you can use the _configurable_ approach.  
Here is an example:  
**./index.js**
```javascript
const custom = require('@pobidowski/cz-conventional-changelog-for-phabricator/configurable');
// You can do this optionally if you want to extend the commit types
const defaultTypes = require('@pobidowski/cz-conventional-changelog-for-phabricator/types');

module.exports = custom({
  types: {
    ...defaultTypes,
    perf: {
      description: 'Improvements that will make your code perform better',
      title: 'Performance'
    }
  },
  skipScope: false,
  scopes: [
    {
      "value": "test",
      "name": "Test"
    }
  ]
});
```
**./package.json**
```json
{
  "config": {
    "commitizen": {
      "path": "./index.js"
    }
  }
}
```

This example would:  
* Display _"perf"_ as an extra commit type
* Ask you to add a commit scope
* Limit the scope selection to either `myScope` or `myScope2`

List of all supported configurable options when using the _configurable_ approach:  
| Key            | Default   | Description                                                                                                                                                           |

| maxHeaderWidth    | 72        | This limits how long a commit message head can be.                                                                                                                    |

| types             | ./types.js| A list (JS Object) of supported commit types.                                                                                                                         |
| scopes            | undefined | A list (JS Array) of scopes that will be available for selection. Note that adding this will change the scope field from Inquirer 'input' to 'list'.                  |

### Commitlint

If using the [commitlint](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/commitlint) js library, the "maxHeaderWidth" configuration property will default to the configuration of the "header-max-length" rule instead of the hard coded value of 72. This can be ovewritten by setting the 'maxHeaderWidth' configuration in package.json or the CZ_MAX_HEADER_WIDTH environment variable.
