Swallow.Refactor

Refactor goes BRRR!

A tool to automatically refactor large swaths of code - the natural continuation of "doing it all by hand" and "tinkering with regexes". You can define a rewriting process and have it executed on many files in a solution - repeatable, testable, predictable.

What's BRRR short for, you ask? Boundless Roslyn Refactoring Runner.

BRRRusage

brrr refactor -s|--solution <solution> [--filter-name <name>] [--filter-content <content>] <rewriters>

When calling refactor, instead of passing all rewriters via CLI you can instead pass the path to a JSON file. This file must match the following scheme:

{ "filter": { "name": "<some regex>", // A regex that filenames should match, optional "content": "<some text>" // A text that files should contain, optional }, "rewriters": [ { "name": "<some rewriter>" }, // A rewriter without any parameters { "name": "<some rewriter>", "parameters": [ "parameter", "parameter" ] } // A rewriter with parameters ] }

To find out what rewriters are available, you can use brrr rewriter list and brrr rewriter describe <rewriter>.

BRRRadditional commands

brrr unused -s|--solution <solution> -o|--output <file> <project>

Find unused symbols (i.e. properties and methods, not fields as of now) in the given <project> and log them to file.

brrr references -s|--solution <solution> <project>

List all direct and transitive project references of then given <project>.
