How to pin the commit-analyzer version

[julioagos]

Any guidance on how to pin the exact version of commit-analyzer. Here is our releaserc file.

{
    "branches": ["master",{"name": "develop", "prerelease": true}],
    "debug": "true",
    "plugins": [
      ["@semantic-release/commit-analyzer", {
      "preset": "conventionalcommits"
        }],   
      "@semantic-release/release-notes-generator",
      "@semantic-release/github"
     ]
  }

managing versions depends on how you install them. if using based on it being a dependency of semantic-release, you are already using a version that our team has proven to be compatible. if installing separately, you can either set the version in your package.json or by appending @x.x.x after the dependency in your installation command.

if you are experiencing version problems since the weekend, the commit-analyzer is unlikely to be your problem, but instead your installation of the conventionalcommits preset. i would focus your efforts on pinning that to the version before the major version that was released this weekend with breaking changes.

@julioagos you can try:

{
    "branches": ["master",{"name": "develop", "prerelease": true}],
    "debug": "true",
    "plugins": [
      ["@semantic-release/commit-analyzer": "v9.0.2", {
      "preset": "conventionalcommits"
        }],   
      "@semantic-release/release-notes-generator",
      "@semantic-release/github"
     ]
  }

    "debug": "true",

        }],   
      "@semantic-release/release-notes-generator",
      "@semantic-release/github"
     ]
  }

This is not how the config files work. It is not appropriate to include a version number there

Thanks for the help. the conventionalcommits preset was what was broken. I pinned the version and it is working again
