Find method calls and say what to do instead

MSAL

Finds method calls, constructor calls and method references matching a method pattern, and marks each one with advice on what to do instead, so whoever reads the result knows the next step.

org.openrewrite.java.recipes.FindMethodsWithAdvice

Required

methodPatternString

A method pattern is used to find matching method invocations. For example, to find all method invocations in the Guava library, use the pattern: com.google.common..*#*(..).

The pattern format is <PACKAGE>#<METHOD_NAME>(<ARGS>).

..* includes all subpackages of com.google.common.
*(..) matches any method name with any number of arguments.

For more specific queries, like Guava's ImmutableMap, use com.google.common.collect.ImmutableMap#*(..) to narrow down the results.

adviceString

What to do instead, shown on each match.

Optional

matchOverridesBoolean

DefaultTrueFalse

When enabled, find methods that are overrides of the method pattern.

$ mod run . --recipe=org.openrewrite.java.recipes.FindMethodsWithAdvice \
  -P methodPattern='org.openrewrite.ExecutionContext getMessages()' \
  -P advice='Keep state across source files in a `ScanningRecipe` accumulator'

Install it once from Recipe actions, then run it on every repository under the current directory. New to the Moderne CLI? Set it up.
