| 🏷️ **Categorised by label** | `categories` maps PR labels onto sections — one PR can land in several, or in none |
| 🧩 **Templated end to end** | `template`, `pr_template` and `commit_template` with `#{{...}}` placeholders |
| ⚡ **Fast on large repos** | Only the PRs between the two tags are fetched — hundreds of tags stay cheap |
| 🔀 **PR mode or COMMIT mode** | `mode: "COMMIT"` builds the same changelog for repos that don't use pull requests |
| 🧪 **Regex where labels end** | `label_extractor` pulls Conventional Commit types straight out of titles |
| 🌐 **Not only GitHub** | `platform: "gitea"`, parallel releases, pre-release aware tag resolution |
## Quickstart 🛠️
**1.** Build the changelog for the tag that triggered the workflow:
```yml
- name: Build Changelog
id: build_changelog
uses: mikepenz/release-changelog-builder-action@v6
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
```
**2.** Use the result as the body of the release:
```yml
- name: Create Release
uses: mikepenz/action-gh-release@v3
with:
body: ${{ steps.build_changelog.outputs.changelog }}
```
**3.** Shape the output by declaring your own categories — see [Configuration](#configuration):
```yml
with:
configurationJson: |
{
"template": "#{{CHANGELOG}}",
"categories": [
{ "title": "## 🚀 Features", "labels": ["feature"] },
{ "title": "## 🐛 Fixes", "labels": ["fix", "bug"] }
]
}
```
> [!IMPORTANT]
> When upgrading from v4 to v5, please ensure to read the upgrade warning in the [release notes](https://github.com/mikepenz/release-changelog-builder-action/releases), especially if [regexes](#regex-configuration) are used.
