React Codemods Build Status

This repository contains a collection of codemods to help update React apps.

All codemods, whether you use the codemod CLI command or react-codemod, are free and open source, with the source code available in this repository.

Usage

We recommend using the codemod command for an enhanced experience and better support.

npx codemod <framework>/<version>/<transform> --target <path> [...options]

  • transform - name of transform, see available transforms below.
  • path - directory to transform

Check codemod docs for the full list of available commands.

For the legacy react-codemod command, see LEGACY.md.

Available Codemods

All React codemods are also available in the Codemod Registry.

remove-context-provider

Converts Context.Provider JSX opening and closing elements into Context.

npx codemod react/19/remove-context-provider --target <path>

remove-forward-ref

Removes usages of forwardRef.

npx codemod react/19/remove-forward-ref --target <path>

use-context-hook

Replaces usages of React.useContext(...) with React.use(...).

npx codemod react/19/use-context-hook --target <path>

replace-act-import

Updates act import path from react-dom/test-utils to react.

npx codemod react/19/replace-act-import --target <path>

replace-string-ref

Replaces deprecated string refs with callback refs.

npx codemod react/19/replace-string-ref --target <path>

replace-use-form-state

Replaces usages of useFormState() to use useActionState().

npx codemod react/19/replace-use-form-state --target <path>

replace-reactdom-render

Replaces usages of ReactDom.render() with createRoot(node).render().

npx codemod react/19/replace-reactdom-render --target <path>

create-element-to-jsx

Converts calls to React.createElement into JSX elements.

npx codemod react/create-element-to-jsx --target <path>

error-boundaries

Renames the experimental unstable_handleError lifecycle hook to componentDidCatch.

npx codemod react/error-boundaries --target <path>

findDOMNode

Updates this.getDOMNode() or this.refs.foo.getDOMNode() calls inside of React.createClass components to React.findDOMNode(foo). Note that it will only look at code inside of React.createClass calls and only update calls on the component instance or its refs. You can use this script to update most calls to getDOMNode and then manually go through the remaining calls.

npx codemod react/findDOMNode --target <path>

manual-bind-to-arrow

Converts manual function bindings in a class (e.g., this.f = this.f.bind(this)) to arrow property initializer functions (e.g., f = () => {}).

npx codemod react/manual-bind-to-arrow --target <path>

pure-component

Converts ES6 classes that only have a render method, only have safe properties (statics and props), and do not have refs to Functional Components.

The wizard will ask for 2 options -

  • Use arrow functions?: converts to arrow function. Converts to function by default.
  • Destructure props?: will destructure props in the argument where it is safe to do so.
npx codemod react/pure-component --target <path>

pure-render-mixin

Removes PureRenderMixin and inlines shouldComponentUpdate so that the ES2015 class transform can pick up the React component and turn it into an ES2015 class. NOTE: This currently only works if you are using the master version (>0.13.1) of React as it is using React.addons.shallowCompare

npx codemod react/pure-render-mixin --target <path>
  • The wizard will ask to optionally override mixin-name, and look for it instead of PureRenderMixin. Note that it is not possible to use a namespaced name for the mixin. mixins: [React.addons.PureRenderMixin] will not currently work.

React-PropTypes-to-prop-types

Replaces React.PropTypes references with prop-types and adds the appropriate import or require statement. This codemod is intended for React 15.5+.

npx codemod react/React-PropTypes-to-prop-types --target <path>
  • In addition to running the above codemod you will also need to install the prop-types NPM package.

rename-unsafe-lifecycles

Adds UNSAFE_ prefix for deprecated lifecycle hooks. (For more information about this codemod, see React RFC #6)

npx codemod react/rename-unsafe-lifecycles --target <path>

react-to-react-dom

Updates code for the split of the react and react-dom packages (e.g., React.render to ReactDOM.render). It looks for require('react') and replaces the appropriate property accesses using require('react-dom'). It does not support ES6 modules or other non-CommonJS systems. We recommend performing the findDOMNode conversion first.

npx codemod react/react-to-react-dom --target <path>
  • After running the automated codemod, you may want to run a regex-based find-and-replace to remove extra whitespace between the added requires, such as codemod.py -m -d src --extensions js '(var React\s*=\s*require\(.react.\);)\n\n(\s*var ReactDOM)' '\1\n\2' using https://github.com/facebook/codemod.

React-DOM-to-react-dom-factories

Converts calls like React.DOM.div(...) to React.createElement('div', ...).

npx codemod react/React-DOM-to-react-dom-factories --target <path>

ReactNative-View-propTypes

Replaces View.propTypes references with ViewPropTypes and adds the appropriate import or require statement. This codemod is intended for ReactNative 44+.

npx codemod react/ReactNative-View-propTypes --target <path>

update-react-imports

As of Babel 7.9.0, when using runtime: automatic in @babel/preset-react or @babel/plugin-transform-react-jsx, you will not need to explicitly import React for compiling jsx. This codemod removes the redundant import statements. It also converts default imports (import React from 'react') to named imports (e.g. import { useState } from 'react').

The wizard will ask for 1 option -

  • Destructure namespace imports as well?: If chosen, namespace imports like import * as React will also be converted. By default, it's false, so only default imports (import React) are converted.
npx codemod react/update-react-imports --target <path>
