FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Rector Rules for Symfony

See available Symfony rules

Install

This package is already part of rector/rector package, so it works out of the box.

All you need to do is install the main package, and you're good to go:

Use Sets

To add a set to your config, use Rector\Symfony\Set\SymfonySetList class and pick one of constants:


Configuration

Provide Symfony XML Service List

Some rules like StringFormTypeToClassRector need access to your Symfony container dumped XML. It contains list of form types with their string names, so it can convert them to class references.

How to add it? Check your var/cache/ directory and find the XML file for your test env. Then add it in rector.php:

That's it! Now you can run the StringFormTypeToClassRector and get your form classes converted safely.


Provide Symfony PHP Container

Some rules like AddRouteAnnotationRector require additional access to your Symfony container. The rule takes container service "router" to load metadata about your routes.

The tests/symfony-container.php should provide your dependency injection container. The way you create the container is up to you. It can be as simple as:

The version of your Symfony can be quite old. Public methods are stable from Symfony 2 to through 6 and the router have not changed much. The AddRouteAnnotationRector rule was tested and developed on Symfony 2.8 project.


Note: in this case, container cache PHP file located in /var/cache/<env>/appProjectContainer.php is not enough. Why? Few services require Kernel to be set, e.g. routes that are resolved in lazy way. This container file is only dumped without Kernel and would crash with missing "kernel" error. That's why the rule needs full blown container.


Learn Rector Faster

Rector is a tool that we develop and share for free, so anyone can save hundreds of hours on refactoring. But not everyone has time to understand Rector and AST complexity. You have 2 ways to speed this process up:

Both ways support us to and improve Rector in sustainable way by learning from practical projects.
