Crate standard_changelog 

Changelog generation from conventional commits.

Groups parsed commits by type, renders markdown sections, and manages CHANGELOG.md files. Pure library — no I/O, no git operations, no terminal output.

Main entry points

• build_release — parse raw commits into a VersionRelease
• render — render multiple releases into a full CHANGELOG.md
• render_version — render a single version section
• prepend_release — splice a new release into an existing changelog

Example

use standard_changelog::{build_release, render, ChangelogConfig, RepoHost};

let commits = vec![
    ("abc1234", "feat(auth): add OAuth2 PKCE flow"),
    ("def5678", "fix: handle expired tokens"),
];

let config = ChangelogConfig::default();
let mut release = build_release(&commits, "1.0.0", None, &config).unwrap();
release.date = "2026-03-14".to_string();

let host = RepoHost::Unknown;
let changelog = render(&[release], &config, &host);
assert!(changelog.contains("## 1.0.0 (2026-03-14)"));
assert!(changelog.contains("### Features"));
assert!(changelog.contains("### Bug Fixes"));
