Becklyn Rector
==============

[](#becklyn-rector)

This package contains a list of [Rector](https://github.com/rectorphp/rector) rules that help you up-grading your Symfony-based code base and keeping it deprecation-free.

Installation
============

[](#installation)

Easily get this package via Composer: `composer require --dev becklyn/rector`

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

Add the rules that you want

This bundle uses a default AJAX protocol, that is used in the `AjaxResponseBuilder` and can be used for your project. The ajax call will always return an error 200, as it shouldn't flood the error tracking (with error 400 AJAX request).

The protocol looks like this:

```
// rector.php

use Becklyn\Rector\Symfony\ReplaceControllerThisGetWithThisContainerGet;
use Rector\Config\RectorConfig;

return static function (RectorConfig $rectorConfig): void {
    // …

    $rectorConfig->rule(ReplaceControllerThisGetWithThisContainerGet::class);

    // …
};
```

Available rules

### `Becklyn\\Rector\\Symfony\\ReplaceControllerThisGetWithThisContainerGet`

[](#becklynrectorsymfonyreplacecontrollerthisgetwiththiscontainerget)

Controllers that were trying to access dependencies via `$this->get(…)` will be refactored to use `$this->container->get(…)`.

Before:

```
class ExtendingAbstractController extends \Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController
{
    public function run()
    {
        $this->get(SomeClass::class);
    }

    public function runFaster()
    {
        $service = $this->get(SomeOtherClass::class);
    }

    public function runEvenFaster()
    {
        return $this->get(BestClass::class);
    }
}
```

After:

```
class ExtendingAbstractController extends \Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController
{
    public function run()
    {
        $this->container->get(SomeClass::class);
    }

    public function runFaster()
    {
        $service = $this->container->get(SomeOtherClass::class);
    }

    public function runEvenFaster()
    {
        return $this->container->get(BestClass::class);
    }
}
```
