Prlint

Github PR title checker using Conventional Commits spec on Changesets


Github CI tests Github Build & Publish tests Latest Release codecov

Getting started

Use as a standalone action

Use Prlint with any github repository with the latest release. Checking out the repository is required to fetch the commitlint.config.js

Sample github actions file (javascript only, no external dependencies):

.github/prlint.yml

name: 📝 Lint PR title
on:
  pull_request:
    types: [opened, edited, reopened, synchronize]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: 🔖Checkout repository
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0
      - name: 📝Validate PR title with commitlint
        uses: kevintyj/prlint@v2
        # Optional (with default values)
        with:
          download-dependencies: ignore
          body: false
          timeout: 20000

v2 release

Caution

v2.0.0 release is an unstable breaking build. v2.0.0 is known to have issues with remote action run. You will still be able to run v2.0.0 as a local action.


This new major version of prlint updates commitlint package to the new v19. This update removes support for CJS and only exports the app as a ESM package (this should not affect the way you use this plugin in any way as the Github node runner handles ESM just fine).

New configuration dependency option

Now users can make the dependency install step optional. The action will automatically install the dependency listed in your configuration file. This means that if the user's config does not have any dependencies, the entire node and npm setup process can be omitted.

See Inputs section for more details on how to set this option

However, if you wish to still download dependencies as a part of your workflow (recommended with cache enabled) see below:

When to use different options

Project environment and nature of commitlint config Recommended method
Does not use "extends" or outside dependencies Recommended 'ignore'
Does not use "extends" but also contains other outside dependencies 'ignore' and install dependencies using actions
Does use "extends" but no outside dependencies 'node' when no caching is used 'ignore' and install dependencies using actions when caching is enabled
Does use "extends" but also contains other outside dependencies 'ignore' and install dependencies using actions

Sample github actions file (using pnpm to download dependencies):

prlint.yml

name: 📝 Lint PR title
on:
  pull_request:
    types: [opened, edited, reopened, synchronize]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: 🔖Checkout repository
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0

      - name: 📦Setup PNPM
        uses: pnpm/action-setup@v4
        with:
          version: 9
      - name: 🌳Setup Node
        uses: actions/setup-node@v4
        with:
          node-version: 20
          cache: pnpm

      - name: 🗂️ Get pnpm store directory
        shell: bash
        run: |
          echo "STORE_PATH=$(pnpm store path --silent)" >> $GITHUB_ENV
      - name: 🚀 Cache pnpm packages
        uses: actions/cache@v4
        with:
          path: ${{ env.STORE_PATH }}
          key: ${{ runner.os }}-pnpm-store-${{ hashFiles('**/pnpm-lock.yaml') }}
          restore-keys: |
            ${{ runner.os }}-pnpm-store-

      - name: 🛠️Install dependencies for prlint
        run: pnpm install @commitlint/config-conventional
      - name: 📝Validate PR title with commitlint
        uses: kevintyj/prlint@v2

Inputs

download-dependencies

Optional Experimental - use node to download commitlint config dependency (eg. @commitlint/config-conventional) Default : 'ignore'

Options:

  • 'node' uses node's exec to run a child process to automatically detect the dependency and install from action (may be slower if caching is not enabled in actions) - currently only limited to @commitlint/config-conventional
  • 'ignore' expects all dependencies to be added with actions script using a package manager such as npm or pnpm

Only available in v2


body

Optional Pass the body of the PR to the commit as the body. Default : 'false'

Options:

  • 'true' Passes the body and appends the body in Github's default style (\n\n)
  • 'false' Ignore body

Only available in v^2.1.0


timeout

Optional Change the default timeout for the action (in s). Default : '25'

If your action fails without a helpful fail log, it is most likely the action exiting before values are resolved. It is recommended to increase the timeout default when using our node importer to give enough time to load your dependencies.

Options:

  • 'timeout: {number}' Any number value in s (seconds) accepted

Only available in v^2.2.0


cl-config

Optional Path to commit lint config. Default : 'commitlint.config.js'

Removed in v2, Only available in v1.0.0 (v1)

Outputs

lint-status

Status of the lint result. Returns ✅ Commitlint tests passed! if successful and ❌ Commitlint tests failed if linter tests fail.

lint-details

Output of the commitlint result.

Limitations

The current action of Prlint only accepts javascript based configurations on commitlint. v1.0.1 introduced support for ESM based configuration files. v1.1.0 introduced support for custom config file names. However, due to ESM support added in v1.0.1 non js config files such as yaml or json is not supported.

Even if the project does not use config-conventional, the Prlint uses the configuration as a fallback, therefore the project must contain the config-conventional package as a development dependency.

Above behavior corrected in v2

v1 support

Sample github actions file (using pnpm to download dependencies):

prlint.yml

name: 📝 Lint PR title
on:
  pull_request:
    types: [opened, edited, reopened, synchronize]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: 🔖Checkout repository
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0
          
      - name: 📦Setup PNPM
        uses: pnpm/action-setup@v4
        with:
          version: 9
      - name: 🌳Setup Node
        uses: actions/setup-node@v4
        with:
          node-version: 20
          cache: pnpm
          
      - name: 🗂️ Get pnpm store directory
        shell: bash
        run: |
          echo "STORE_PATH=$(pnpm store path --silent)" >> $GITHUB_ENV
      - name: 🚀 Cache pnpm packages
        uses: actions/cache@v4
        with:
          path: ${{ env.STORE_PATH }}
          key: ${{ runner.os }}-pnpm-store-${{ hashFiles('**/pnpm-lock.yaml') }}
          restore-keys: |
            ${{ runner.os }}-pnpm-store-
            
      - name: 🛠️Install dependencies for prlint
        run: pnpm install @commitlint/config-conventional
      - name: 📝Validate PR title with commitlint
        uses: kevintyj/prlint@v1

The above action only check's out the current repository to fetch the commitlint configuration file. PNPM and node is used to install necessary dependencies, then config-conventional is used as a default config. When using the above configuration, pnpm-lock.yaml is required. Please use npm and node if package-lock.json is used.
