Released Rector 0.12.10

Thank you all for amazing year 2021!

This year...

• we've released a book with @matthiasnoback where you can learn Rector in depth in days,
• we've added static reflection that allows analyzing legacy projects,
• we develop Rector on PHP 8.1 and release downgraded to PHP 7.1
• and most importantly, you contribute more and more rules and fixes every month ❤️

Thank you from whole Rector team 🙇

We've prepared one 🎁 , that will make your life much easier in 2022...

Experimental - Parallel Run 🥳️

This release brings new exciting feature. The more threads your CPU has, the faster can Rector get. It's brand new feature, so we look for bleeding edge testers to try it out:

// rector.php
use Rector\Core\Configuration\Option;
use Symfony\Component\DependencyInjection\Loader\Configurator\ContainerConfigurator;

return static function (ContainerConfigurator $containerConfigurator): void {
    $parameters = $containerConfigurator->parameters();

	$parameters->set(Option::PARALLEL, true);
};

• [Parallel] Add serializable object passing to FileProcessors (#1583)
• [Parallel] Tidy up (#1585)
• [Parallel] Improve tests to use file processor over file analyzer + fix missing RectorWithLineChange de/serialization (#1584)

PHPStan 1.0 Upgrade ⛺️

This Rector version depends on PHPStan more then ever. We're using its php-parser (many of them actually), class name visitor resolver and static/this/self types. That's why we had to take time to make sure the upgrade to PHPStan 1.0 is stable.

• [PHPStan 1.0] upgrade deprecated getNativeMethods() method (#1069)
• Improve self/static/parent object reference (#1071)
• [PHPStan 1.0] Make SelfType, StaticType and ThisType use ClassReflection over string (#1072)
• SelfType and StaticType are now handled in ObjectTypeSpecifier (#1077)
• [PHPStan 1.0] Use processNodes() over processNodeStmts() (#1111)
• [PHPStan 1.0] use selectFromArgs() for function reflectoin to get passed by reference positoins (#1113)
• [PHPStan 1.0] Remove sorted union types, now handled by default (#1112)
• [PHPStan 1.0] resolve FunctionReflection getFileName() from main interface (#1117)
• [PHPStan 1.0] Remove ReflectionWithFilename (#1118)
• Fix issue of parsing PHP 8 sources on PHP 7.x (#1184), Thanks @ondrejmirtes!
• [PHPStan 1.0] Remove node naming visitors and re-use PHPStan ones (#1144)
• PHPStan\Reflection\ClassReflection::getFileName() now returns null|string (rectorphp/rector-src@9686861)
• PHPStan\Reflection\ClassReflection::getParentClass now returns null|class reflection (rectorphp/rector-src@1cc7dc3)
• NativeFunctionReflection has new parameter (rectorphp/rector-src@ca82769)
• Remove ClearReturnNewByReferenceRector, PHPStan cannot handle it (rectorphp/rector-src@051c751)

PHPStan 1.0-Related Changes

Class names are now available in the node itself:

-$className = $node->getAttribute(AttributeKey::CLASS_NAME);

↓

 // in case of class like
+$className = $classLike->namespacedName

 // in case of anonymous class
+$className = $classLike->name

 // or widely used method in AbstractRector
 $className = $this->getName($classLike)

Deprecated/Removed ⚰️
