Released Rector 1.0.0 🎉🎉🎉

The stable Rector version is here. It was about time and we've done all planned changes by the end of 2023.

What could be better time and place to release a stable Rector than live on stage during talk 🎉

While this release brings stable API, it will be easier to stay up to date as well. The 1.x versioning behaves as expected with composer update (compared to special 0.x).

Our main focus is on improving developers experience. This release brings new features that help with custom rules writing, adding Rector to CI and adding Rector to any legacy project in general.

Some features are partially available in previous version, but we'd like to highligh them because since 1.0 you can use them all together.

Zen Config with Autocomplete

If you run Rector for the first time, it will create a rector.php config with your project paths for you. In past we used various class constants references to add commonly used rule sets. This required knowledge about these classes and was often missed.

We've changed this to work with single configuration class. It provides autocomplete for available sets, including attributes:

use Rector\Config\RectorConfig;

return RectorConfig::configure()
    ->withPreparedSets(codeQuality: true, codingStyle: true)
    ->withAttributesSets(symfony: true, doctrine: true)
    ->withPaths([
        __DIR__ . '/src',
        __DIR__ . '/tests',
    ])
    ->withRootFiles();

PHP Sets Automated

To keep up to date with you PHP, now you can use single method:

use Rector\Config\RectorConfig;

return RectorConfig::configure()
    ->withPhpSets();

It learns about PHP version from your composer.json and will always keep sync with your required PHP version. No need to double check rector.php configuration anymore.

Streamline Integration to Projects

We're also adding 2 experimental methods, that make Rector integration to new projects easier. Before, you could run whole type declaration or read code set, see 1000 changed files and rather close it being overwhelmed. Instead, we want to take it slow, as we do with our custom upgrades as well:

use Rector\Config\RectorConfig;

return RectorConfig::configure()
     ->withTypeCoverageLevel(10)
     ->withDeadCodeLevel(10)

Now you can improve your code base one rule at a time. The rules are sorted from the easiest to integrate, e.g. add void to closure, to more complex one. That way you can improve your code base in your own pace. We're collecting feedback on rule order, so the levels will likely change.

New and Improved Commands

• We added a new command to generate bare custom rule files and structure for you:

vendor/bin/rector custom-rule

Call the command, type the rule name and rule, its test and composer autoload is generated for you. So you can focus on the contents of refactor() method.

• We improve the command, that generates Github and Gitlab CI setup files, so you can let Rector work for you:

vendor/bin/rector setup-ci

The command handles generic setup for you and then guides you to register needed access.
