What features do we have here?

Convert Config Formats From XML/YAML to YAML/PHP

Why? Because YAML beats XML and PHP beats YAML.

Do you need to convert 1 file to PHP? Just add its path as argument:

vendor/bin/config-transformer switch-format config/packages/ecs.yaml

The input file will be deleted automatically.

If you need more files or directories, --input-format/-i must be provided:

vendor/bin/config-transformer switch-format app/config --input-format xml --output-format yaml

# or in short
vendor/bin/config-transformer switch-format app/config -i xml -o yaml

# to PHP?
vendor/bin/config-transformer switch-format app/config -i xml -o php

# you can omit the -o argument, as "php" is the default value
vendor/bin/config-transformer switch-format app/config -i xml

You can also add --target-symfony-version/-s to specify, what Symfony features should be used (3.2 is used by default).

vendor/bin/config-transformer switch-format app/config -i yaml -o php -s 3.3

Note: Symfony YAML parse removes all comments, so be sure to go through files and add still-relevant comments manually.
