Define sets/levels and run it over your app or plugin: ``` bin/cake upgrade files /path/to/repo -v -d ``` Keep verbose and dry-run for checking if it works as expected, then apply your changes for real. This tool works best in combination with the official [upgrade](https://github.com/cakephp/upgrade/) tool and its rector based approaches. - dereuromark/upgrade handles basic cases and non-PHP files - cakephp/upgrade handles PHP class files via rector (requires valid PHP files) If rector fails or cannot handle your app, you can try to use this tool completely by defining more regex based rules for example. You can check active vs available tasks using `--help` together with `-v`. It will list all available ones, active ones are in green. For docs on this check [here](docs/Upgrade.md). --- Installation ------------ [](#installation) This plugin is standalone. Do not try to mix this with your existing app. Instead, put it somewhere completely separate from it. Best to clone it (git clone ....). After downloading/cloning the upgrade tool, you need to install dependencies with `composer` ``` composer install ``` Once dependencies are installed you can start using the `upgrade` shell. Note: If you want to get the latest master, you can run `composer update` at your own risk. It will download also all recent changes done. Alternatively, you can lock it down to a stable version and then update. IMPORTANT NOTICE ---------------- [](#important-notice) This tool is an add-on to original CakePHP upgrade tool and provides additional fixers: - Skeleton The FileUpgrade tool also: - see `src/Task/?` (tons of custom fixes) Feel free to manually port those things back into the core one. Usage ----- [](#usage) ### Upgrade command [](#upgrade-command) Important upgrade steps: - Skeleton upgrade (all skeleton files) ``` bin/cake upgrade /home/mark/Sites/my-app ``` ### Upgrade files [](#upgrade-files) See above `bin/cake upgrade files` docs. ### Upgrade legacy shell [](#upgrade-legacy-shell) See cake4 branch. ### Health Score 34 — LowBetter than 77% of packages Maintenance48 Moderate activity, may be stable Popularity22 Limited adoption so far Community21 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity41 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor2 2 contributors hold 50%+ of commits How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
