A Ruby codemod CLI to transform your source code using AST(Abstract Syntax Trees) and the parser gem. It is typically used on Ruby codebase like RAILS applications and other stuff.
$ gem install codeshift
This tool requires a transform.rb
file which contains the transform logic to be
applied on the source files in a folder.
$ codeshift -t [TRANSFORM FILE] [PATHS]
To apply the transform logic on your app/models
files
$ codeshift -t transform.rb app/models
For example if you want to reverse the local variable names and method names in your code you will be doing something like this:
Create a new Ruby file with the tranformation logic to be applied on the AST of the source code. For writing transforms you can make use of Ruby AST Explorer and cybertron
# Your Transform Class should always extend from
# Parser:: TreeRewriter
class Transform < Parser::TreeRewriter
def on_lvasgn(node)
# Reverse the variable names
replace(node.loc.name, node.children[0].to_s.reverse)
end
def on_def(node)
replace(node.loc.name, node.children[0].to_s.reverse)
end
end
If your source code looks like below in a folder called ~/Desktop/test/ruby
tips = ["hello", "world"]
def print_tips
tips.each { |key, value| print "Tip #{key}: #{value}" }
end
Then use the transform against your source code
$ codeshift -t transform.rb ~/Desktop/test/ruby
Then your source will be transformed something like:
spit = ["hello", "world"]
def spit_tnirp
tips.each { |key, value| print "Tip #{key}: #{value}" }
end
Usage: codeshift -t [path]
- --version Print version number
- -t, --transform=TRANSFORM path to the transform file. Can be either a local path or url (default: ./transform.rb)
- -h, --help Prints this help
The transform file could be a local file or a remote url. For example you can use a remote transform like below:
$ codeshift -t https://gist.githubusercontent.com/[user]/.../transform.rb ~/Desktop/test/ruby
The path could be a list of directories or files separated by space.
$ codeshift -t transform.rb ~/app/legacy/ruby ~/app/old
$ codeshift -t transform.rb ~/code/legacy/app/models/account.rb ~/old/app/models/customer.rb
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
