cybertron

cybertron is a command line tool for generating, testing and publishing converters aka Codemods for Ruby inspired by codemod-cli for Javascript by Robert Jackson

INFO: You can use a tool like codeshift to run your codemods/transforms against your Ruby codebase. For writing transforms you can also make use of the Ruby AST Explorer

Installation

$ gem install cybertron

Usage

Create a new codemod project

$ cybertron new <project-name>

Example:

$ cybertron new my_ruby_codemod

This will create a project structure like this:

my_ruby_codemod
| transforms
| spec
| | spec_helper.rb
.rspec
Rakefile

Generate a new transform

$ cd <project-name>
$ cybertron generate transform <transform-name>

Example:

$ cd my_ruby_codemod
$ cybertron generate transform my_transform

Now the project structure will be like this:

my_ruby_codemod
| transforms
| | my_transform
| | | fixtures
| | | | basic_input.rb
| | | | basic_output.rb
| | | transform.rb
| spec
| | my_transform_spec.rb
| | spec_helper.rb
.rspec
Rakefile

Generate a new fixture for transform

$ cybertron generate fixture <transform-name> <fixture-name>

Example:

$ cybertron generate fixture my_transform advanced_usage

Now the project structure will be like this:

my_ruby_codemod
| transforms
| | my_transform
| | | fixtures
| | | | basic_input.rb
| | | | basic_output.rb
| | | | advanced_usage_input.rb
| | | | advanced_usage_output.rb
| | | transform.rb
| spec
| | my_transform_spec.rb
| | spec_helper.rb
.rspec
Rakefile

Run tests for your codemod transforms

$ cybertron spec

This will run all the specs in the spec folder, by comparing the input and output fixtures against themselves for each and every transform.

Finding help or usage instructions

To display the help message and usage instructions, just invoke cybertron without any arguments

$ cybertron

To display help about any particular command,

$ cybertron help <command-name>

For example, to know more about the generate command:

$ cybertron help generate
