This calls towncrier when releasing a package with zest.releaser.
towncrier updates your history file (like CHANGES.rst) based on news snippets.
This is for example used by pip.
The plugin will call towncrier build --draft --version <package version> --yes.
You can get a preview of the result yourself by calling towncrier build --draft --version 1.2.3.
The towncrier command should be on your PATH.
The plugin can also find it when it is in the same directory as the fullrelease script (or prerelease/postrelease).
Install zestreleaser.towncrier with pip:
$ pip install zestreleaser.towncrier
Then you can run fullrelease like you would normally do when releasing a package.
