Introduction
You can read more details in the following blog post:

Documentation
Development guides, individual deprecation overviews, and other resources can be found here:
https://www.palantir.net/rector
List of all rules with examples:
Rule overview in docs/rules_overview.md
Scope and limitations
The development of this tool is prioritized by the perceived impact of the deprecations and updates. There are many deprecations that often involve several components and for each of these there are several ways to address the deprecation.
We've tried to determine impact based on:
- The use of the deprecated functionality in the contributed modules on Drupal.org
- If there are simple to develop ways to fix the deprecation
So, high impact (the code works in newer versions of Drupal for a large number of people), low effort (we can develop the rule based on our knowledge of Rector).
Common limitations
Known limitations are listed in the comment documentation for each rule.
Common limitations include:
- Using static calls like
Drupal->service('my_service')->myMethod();
rather than injecting the service into the class - Skipping complex use cases, such as when optional arguments are passed as variables
- Handling
use
statements in weird ways. Rector has a global option to handleuse
statements and we think the benefits outweigh the drawbacks such as weird placement or lack of handling of less common patterns. - Handling doc comments in weird ways, particularly around spacing. Rector uses dependencies that sometimes delete empty comments or remove white space. At this point, Drupal Rector does not intend to modify any doc comments, but Rector ends up doing this.
Our hope is that as we learn more about Rector, we may be able to update these rules to add these features.
Issues are managed on drupal.org

Installation
NOTE: To have the best experience with Drupal Rector, your Drupal site should be running version 8.9 or higher.
Install Drupal Rector inside a Drupal project.
$ composer require --dev palantirnet/drupal-rector
Create a configuration file in your project
You will need to have a rector.php
configuration in the root of your repository. This should sit beside your document root such as web
or docroot
.
This project uses webflo/drupal-finder
to find your document root that contains Drupal.
To get started, copy the rector.php
configuration file provided by this package:
cp vendor/palantirnet/drupal-rector/rector.php .
By default, Drupal Rector will fix deprecated code for all versions of Drupal. If you want to change this behavior, modify
the sets used in the rector.php
config. For example, if your site is still on Drupal 9.3, and you cannot fix deprecations
made in Drupal 9.4, use the following configuration:
$rectorConfig->sets([ Drupal9SetList::DRUPAL_90, Drupal9SetList::DRUPAL_91, Drupal9SetList::DRUPAL_92, Drupal9SetList::DRUPAL_93, ]);
This is more granular than the Drupal9SetList::DRUPAL_9
set.
Suggested workflow
- Analyze your code with Rector and review suggested changes:
$ vendor/bin/rector process web/modules/contrib/[YOUR_MODULE] --dry-run
- Apply suggested changes:
$ vendor/bin/rector process web/modules/contrib/[YOUR_MODULE]
You can find more information about Rector here.
Troubleshooting
PhpStan composer issues
You may need to upgrade phpstan/phpstan
with Composer before installing this package.
Rector itself has conflicts with older versions of PhpStan.
Unable to find Rector rule classes
If you are getting errors like
[ERROR] Class "DrupalRector\Drupal8\Rector\Deprecation\EntityManagerRector" was not found while loading
You may need to rebuild your autoload file.
composer dump-autoload
FileLocator::locate() must be compatible with FileLocatorInterface::locate()
If you are getting errors like
PHP Fatal error: Declaration of _HumbugBox3630ef99eac4\Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Config\FileLocator::locate($file, $currentPath = NULL, $first = true) must be compatible with _HumbugBox3630ef99eac4\Symfony\Component\Config\FileLocatorInterface::locate(string $name, ?string $currentPath = NULL, bool $first = true) in phar:///var/www/html/vendor/rector/rector-prefixed/rector/vendor/symfony/http-kernel/Config/FileLocator.php on line 20
Fatal error: Declaration of _HumbugBox3630ef99eac4\Symfony\Component\HttpKernel\Config\FileLocator::locate($file, $currentPath = NULL, $first = true) must be compatible with _HumbugBox3630ef99eac4\Symfony\Component\Config\FileLocatorInterface::locate(string $name, ?string $currentPath = NULL, bool $first = true) in phar:///var/www/html/vendor/rector/rector-prefixed/rector/vendor/symfony/http-kernel/Config/FileLocator.php on line 20
You may need to check that you are
- Running
composer install
from an environment that supports Php 7.2 or greater - Running Drupal Rector from an environment that supports Php 7.2 or greater
Sometimes people install composer dependencies from one machine (host machine) and run Drupal Rector from another (such as a Lando VM).
If you are having these issues try running Rector from the environment that has Php 7.2 or greater. Drupal Rector does not need a fully functional web server, it only (more or less) needs Php and access to a standard Drupal set of files.
Iconv error when running Rector in Alpine Docker
If you are getting errors like
iconv(): Wrong charset, conversion from UTF-8 to ASCII//TRANSLIT//IGNORE is not allowed
You can fix it in Dockerfile with
# fix work iconv library with alphine
RUN apk add --no-cache --repository http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community/ --allow-untrusted gnu-libiconv
ENV LD_PRELOAD /usr/lib/preloadable_libiconv.so php

Development and contribution suggestions
Thanks for your interest in contributing!
Our goal is to make contributing to this project easy for people. While we've made certain architectural decisions here to hopefully achieve that goal, it's a work in progress and feedback is appreciated.
Development environment
See the instructions in README
Adding a Rector rule
If you would like to submit a Rector rule, we are looking for the following:
- A Rector rule class, see
/src/Rector/Deprecation
for existing rules - An example file or files that show(s) the before and after, see
/rector_examples
and/rector_examples_updated
- An updated configuration file that registers the Rector rule, see
/config/drupal-8
- A listing in the index file, see
/deprecation-index.yml
Guides
A few guides are currently available and we encourage people to create additional guides to provide their perspective and help us better understand this tool together.

Additional documentation and links

Quick(?) overview
Create a Rector rule class
Rector rules should be named after the deprecation, including the class name.
Drupal::url()
-> DrupalUrlRector.php
drupal_set_message()
-> DrupalSetMessageRector.php
We would like one Rector rule per deprecation. Some deprecations include updating multiple things and those would be separate rules.
To avoid duplication, we have created base classes for simple repeated patterns where possible. These end in Base.php
and are located in /src/Rector/Deprecation/Base
. In many of these rules, you will extend the base class, define class properties, add a class comment, and define the definition.
Rector supports passing parameters to rules and you can also define your rules in a variety of ways. To avoid confusion for new developers, we're trying to avoid these advanced features so that someone with limited familiarity with the tool can easily determine where things are located and what they are doing. If the copy & paste challenge isn't worth this trade-off, we can re-evaluate it as we go. Suggestions appreciated.
Create examples
We are creating pairs of example files.
These should be named the same thing as the deprecation. So, DrupalUrlRector
has a rector_examples/drupal_url.php
example. An example rector_examples_updated/drupal_url.php
should also be created to show the updated code. You can run Drupal Rector on this file to show the update.
Example
DrupalUrlRector
-> rector_examples/drupal_url.php
and rector_examples_updated/drupal_url.php
If you would like to show how the code is used in a class, you can add the class to the appropriate place in the /rector_examples/src
or /rector_examples/test
directories. Most of the examples in the example module are services
in that they are stand alone classes.
Since these classes can use static calls, dependency injection, or traits to get access to services, constants, etc, we have added more details to some class names. For example, *Static
to indicate that the class is not using dependency injection.
Example
DrupalUrlRector
-> rector_examples/src/DrupalUrlStatic.php
and rector_examples_updated/src/DrupalUrlStatic.php
Create / Update a configuration file
The configuration files in /config/drupal-8
are broken down by Drupal minor versions.
Add your Rector rule to the relevant file.
The key is the fully qualified class name of the Rector rule. The key is the yaml null value ~
.
Update the index file
The index file is used in part to provide automated updates to https://dev.acquia.com/drupal9/deprecation_status/errors which is a helpful way to track coverage. The PHPStan
messages are listed there as well as in the change record comments throughout the Drupal codebase.
Pinning dev dependencies
If there are conflicts with Rector, the package version can be conflicted with conflict
on rector/rector
and phpstan/phpstan
.
- View the tree for the commit on GitHub and it's
composer/installed.json
file (example https://github.com/rectorphp/rector/blob/0.12.18/vendor/composer/installed.json) - Use the reference to pin the
phpstan/phpstan
dependency.
