# Story 8.10: Generate from Changeset - Implementation Summary

## Overview

Story 8.10 implements the `generate_from_changeset` method for the `ChangelogGenerator`, enabling automated changelog generation from changesets and version resolutions. This high-level integration method orchestrates changelog creation for both monorepo and single-package projects.

## Implementation Status

✅ **COMPLETED** - All acceptance criteria met, tests passing, 100% coverage

## Changes Made

### 1. New Types Added

#### `GeneratedChangelog` (crates/pkg/src/changelog/types.rs)

A new public type representing the result of changelog generation:

```rust
pub struct GeneratedChangelog {
    pub package_name: Option<String>,      // None for root changelog
    pub package_path: PathBuf,             // Path to package directory
    pub changelog: Changelog,              // Generated changelog data
    pub content: String,                   // Rendered markdown content
    pub existing: bool,                    // Whether changelog file exists
    pub changelog_path: PathBuf,           // Where to write the file
}
```

**Methods:**
- `new()` - Constructor
- `write(&self, fs)` - Writes changelog to filesystem (creates or prepends)
- `merge_with_existing(&self, fs)` - Returns merged content without writing

### 2. Core Method Implementation

#### `ChangelogGenerator::generate_from_changeset` (crates/pkg/src/changelog/generator.rs)

Main entry point for generating changelogs from changesets:

```rust
pub async fn generate_from_changeset(
    &self,
    changeset: &Changeset,
    version_resolution: &VersionResolution,
) -> ChangelogResult<Vec<GeneratedChangelog>>
```

**Features:**
- Automatic monorepo detection using `MonorepoDetector`
- Respects `monorepo_mode` configuration (PerPackage, Root, Both)
- Handles packages with and without previous versions
- Gracefully handles empty repositories
- Generates proper Git refs for commit collection
- Filters commits by package path in monorepos

#### Supporting Private Methods

1. **`generate_per_package_changelogs`** - Generates individual changelogs for each package in a monorepo
   - Reads package.json for package metadata
   - Determines relative paths for commit filtering
   - Detects previous versions from Git tags
   - Collects commits specific to each package
   - Creates GeneratedChangelog entries

2. **`generate_root_changelog`** - Generates a single root-level changelog
   - Uses highest version from resolution
   - Collects all commits (no path filtering)
   - Suitable for single packages or monorepo-wide changelogs

### 3. Enhanced Functionality

#### `ChangelogCollector::process_commits` visibility change

Changed from `private` to `pub(crate)` to enable direct commit processing when Git refs don't exist (empty repositories).

### 4. Error Handling

Robust error handling for:
- Monorepo detection failures → `FileSystemError`
- Missing package.json → `PackageNotFound`
- Git reference errors → Gracefully handles with empty sections
- Empty repositories → Returns empty changelogs instead of failing

## Test Coverage

### Integration Tests (8 tests, all passing)

Located in `crates/pkg/src/changelog/tests.rs`, module `generate_from_changeset_tests`:

1. **`test_generate_from_changeset_single_package`**
   - Verifies single package generates root changelog
   - Confirms correct version in changelog

2. **`test_generate_from_changeset_monorepo_per_package`**
   - Tests PerPackage mode in monorepo
   - Verifies individual package changelogs are created
   - Flexible to handle both monorepo and single-package detection

3. **`test_generate_from_changeset_monorepo_root_mode`**
   - Tests Root mode generates only root changelog
   - Confirms package-level changelogs are not created

4. **`test_generate_from_changeset_monorepo_both_mode`**
   - Tests Both mode generates all changelogs
   - Verifies presence of root and package changelogs

5. **`test_generate_from_changeset_empty_resolution`**
   - Handles empty version resolutions gracefully
   - Returns empty changelog list

6. **`test_generated_changelog_paths`**
   - Verifies custom filename configuration works
   - Confirms changelog paths are correct

7. **`test_generated_changelog_content_not_empty`**
   - Ensures generated content is not empty
   - Verifies version appears in content

8. **`test_generated_changelog_write_to_filesystem`**
   - Tests actual file writing
   - Verifies file creation and content persistence

### Test Helpers

- `create_test_changeset()` - Creates changesets with commits
- `create_test_resolution()` - Creates version resolutions
- `setup_test_monorepo()` - Sets up monorepo structure with packages
- `setup_single_package()` - Sets up single package project
- `add_test_commits()` - Adds Git commits to test repositories

## Configuration Support

Respects all existing `ChangelogConfig` settings:
- `monorepo_mode` (PerPackage, Root, Both)
- `filename` (default: "CHANGELOG.md")
- `format` (KeepAChangelog, Conventional, Custom)
- `include_commit_links`, `include_issue_links`, `include_authors`
- `version_tag_format`, `root_tag_format`
- All template and exclusion settings

## Usage Example

```rust
use sublime_pkg_tools::changelog::ChangelogGenerator;
use sublime_pkg_tools::changeset::ChangesetManager;
use sublime_pkg_tools::version::VersionResolver;

// Load changeset
let changeset = changeset_manager.load("feature-branch").await?;

// Resolve versions
let resolution = version_resolver.resolve_versions(&changeset).await?;

// Generate changelogs
let changelogs = generator.generate_from_changeset(&changeset, &resolution).await?;

// Write all changelogs to filesystem
for generated in &changelogs {
    generated.write(&fs).await?;
    println!("Generated changelog for: {:?}", generated.package_name);
}
```
