> Generate a changelog from git metadata
It's recommended to use high level [standard-version](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/standard-version).
Alternatively, you are probably looking for the [cli](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/conventional-changelog/tree/master/packages/conventional-changelog-cli) module.
Or use one of the plugins if you are already using the tool: [grunt](https://github.com/btford/grunt-conventional-changelog)/[gulp](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/conventional-changelog/tree/master/packages/gulp-conventional-changelog)/[atom](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/conventional-changelog/tree/master/packages/conventional-changelog-atom).
## Usage
```sh
$ npm install --save conventional-changelog
```
```js
var conventionalChangelog = require('conventional-changelog');
conventionalChangelog({
preset: 'angular'
})
.pipe(process.stdout); // or any writable stream
```
Or if you want to use your own custom preset:
```js
var conventionalChangelog = require('conventional-changelog');
var config = require('@org/conventional-changelog-custom-preset');
conventionalChangelog({config})
.pipe(process.stdout); // or any writable stream
```
## API
### conventionalChangelog([options, [context, [gitRawCommitsOpts, [parserOpts, [writerOpts]]]]])
Returns a readable stream.
#### options
See the [conventional-changelog-core](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/conventional-changelog/tree/master/packages/conventional-changelog-core) docs. The API is the same with the following changes or additions:
##### preset
Type: `string` Possible values: `'angular', 'atom', 'codemirror', 'ember', 'eslint', 'express', 'jquery', 'jscs', 'jshint'`
It's recommended to use a preset so you don't have to define everything yourself. Presets are names of built-in `config`.
A scoped preset package such as `@scope/conventional-changelog-custom-preset` can be used by passing `@scope/custom-preset` to this option.
**NOTE:** `options.config` will be overwritten by the values of preset. You should use either `preset` or `config`, but not both.
