# Rector - Instant Upgrades and Automated Refactoring

[![Downloads](https://img.shields.io/packagist/dt/rector/rector.svg?style=flat-square)](https://packagist.org/packages/rector/rector)

Rector instantly upgrades and refactors the PHP code of your application.  It can help you in 2 major areas:

### 1. Instant Upgrades

Rector now supports upgrades from PHP 5.3 to 8.2 and major open-source projects like [Symfony](https://github.com/rectorphp/rector-symfony), [PHPUnit](https://github.com/rectorphp/rector-phpunit), and [Doctrine](https://github.com/rectorphp/rector-doctrine). Do you want to **be constantly on the latest PHP and Framework without effort**?

Use Rector to handle **instant upgrades** for you.

### 2. Automated Refactoring

Do you have code quality you need, but struggle to keep it with new developers in your team? Do you want to see smart code-reviews even when every senior developers sleeps?

Add Rector to your CI and let it **continuously refactor your code** and keep the code quality high.

Read our [blogpost](https://getrector.com/blog/new-setup-ci-command-to-let-rector-work-for-you) to see how to set up automated refactoring.

## Install

```bash
composer require rector/rector --dev
```

## Running Rector

There are 2 main ways to use Rector:

- a *single rule*, to have the change under control
- or group of rules called *sets*

To use them, create a `rector.php` in your root directory:

```bash
vendor/bin/rector
```

And modify it:

```php
use Rector\Config\RectorConfig;
use Rector\TypeDeclaration\Rector\Property\TypedPropertyFromStrictConstructorRector;

return RectorConfig::configure()
    // register single rule
    ->withRules([
        TypedPropertyFromStrictConstructorRector::class
    ])
    // here we can define, what prepared sets of rules will be applied
    ->withPreparedSets(
        deadCode: true,
        codeQuality: true
    );
```

Then dry run Rector:

```bash
vendor/bin/rector process src --dry-run
```

Rector will show you diff of files that it *would* change. To *make* the changes, drop `--dry-run`:

```bash
vendor/bin/rector process src
```

## Learn Faster with a Book

Are you curious, how Rector works internally, how to create your own rules and test them and why Rector was born?
Read [Rector - The Power of Automated Refactoring](https://leanpub.com/rector-the-power-of-automated-refactoring) that will take you step by step through the Rector setup and how to create your own rules.

## Empowered by Community :heart:

The Rector community is powerful thanks to active maintainers who take care of Rector sets for particular projects.

## Hire us to get Job Done :muscle:

Rector is a tool that [we develop](https://getrector.com/) and share for free, so anyone can automate their refactoring. But not everyone has dozens of hours to understand complexity of abstract-syntax-tree in their own time. **That's why we provide commercial support - to save your time**.

Would you like to apply Rector on your code base but don't have time for the struggle with your project? [Hire us](https://getrector.com/contact) to get there faster.

## How to Contribute

See [the contribution guide](/CONTRIBUTING.md) or go to development repository [rector/rector-src](https://github.com/rectorphp/rector-src).

## Debugging

You can use `--debug` option, that will print nested exceptions output:

```bash
vendor/bin/rector process src/Controller --dry-run --debug
```

Or with Xdebug:

1. Make sure [Xdebug](https://xdebug.org/) is installed and configured
2. Add `--xdebug` option when running Rector

```bash
vendor/bin/rector process src/Controller --dry-run --xdebug
```

To assist with simple debugging Rector provides 2 helpers to pretty-print AST-nodes:

```php
use PhpParser\Node\Scalar\String_;
$node = new String_('hello world!');

// prints node to string, as PHP code displays it
print_node($node);
```

## Known Drawbacks

* Rector uses [nikic/php-parser](https://github.com/nikic/PHP-Parser/), built on technology called an *abstract syntax tree* (AST). An AST doesn't know about spaces and when written to a file it produces poorly formatted code in both PHP and docblock annotations.

* Rector in parallel mode will work most of the times for most OS. On Windows, you may encounter issues unresolvable despite of following the [Troubleshooting Parallel](https://getrector.com/documentation/troubleshooting-parallel) guide. In such case, check if you are using Powershell 7 (pwsh). Change your terminal to command prompt (cmd) or bash for Windows.

### How to Apply Coding Standards?

**Your project needs to have a coding standard tool** and a set of formatting rules, so it can make Rector's output code nice and shiny again.

We're using [ECS](https://github.com/symplify/easy-coding-standard) with [this setup](https://github.com/rectorphp/rector-src/blob/main/ecs.php).

### May cause unexpected output on File with mixed PHP+HTML content

When you apply changes to File(s) thas has mixed PHP+HTML content, you may need to manually verify the changed file after apply the changes.
