Overview

The first stable release of the 1.0 line. It ships full Drupal 11 deprecation
coverage (11.0–11.4), Drupal 10.3 additions, the container-managed
DrupalRectorSettings service, and Composer-based sets — Rector now pins the
active rule set to the exact Drupal version Composer installed, so you get clean,
single-version rewrites with no DeprecationHelper wrappers to clean up later.
See the Drupal.org post Use Rector on your Drupal site: easier than ever with
new Composer-based sets
for a walkthrough.

Everything in the 1.0.0-alpha1/-beta* series is rolled up here. The betas
hardened the release against contrib-wide validation (whole-of-contrib runs via
project_analysis); nothing
below changes the public API since alpha1.

Changes since 1.0.0-alpha1

• Composer-based sets (beta2/beta3) — DrupalSetProvider loads only the
  deprecation sets live on the installed Drupal version, and registers
  DrupalRectorSettings with BC wrapping disabled by default. Projects that must
  target multiple Drupal minors can re-enable it in their own rector.php.
• PHPUnit metadata attributes (beta3) — PhpUnitTestAnnotationToAttributeRector
  and PhpUnitAddRunTestsInSeparateProcessesAttributeRector; @group legacy →
  #[IgnoreDeprecations] folded into the former.
• By-reference BC wrappers (beta7) — DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall()
  now wraps calls that pass a variable to a by-reference parameter
  (&$variables, &$form, …) in a long closure that captures by reference, so
  mutations are no longer silently dropped.
• MethodToMethodWithCheckRector (beta6) — only rewrites on a definite
  receiver-type match, dropping false positives on unrelated classes.
• AnnotationToAttributeRector (beta5) — preserves the positional/keyless
  annotation value (e.g. #[FormElement('foo')]) and is idempotent across name
  importing (beta3).
• BC-wrapper simplifications — RemoveConfigSaveTrustedDataArgRector and
  FileSystemBasenameToNativeRector now emit plain $config->save() /
  basename(...) calls, since both rewrites are behaviourally equivalent on every
  supported version.

For the complete feature list — every shipped rector, the DrupalRectorSettings
service, the Claude Code skills, upgrade notes, and compatibility matrix — see the
1.0.0-alpha1 notes below.

1.0.0-alpha1 - 2026-06-01

Overview

The first alpha of the 1.0 line. It adds full Drupal 11 deprecation coverage (11.0
through 11.4), a container-managed settings service that gives you explicit control
over backward-compatibility wrapping, and a documented set of Claude Code skills for
building further rectors. It also drops support for Rector 1.

Validated end-to-end against real code:

• Applied to Drupal Canvas on the
  canvas-3589155 branch; the full Canvas test suite passed
  (pipeline 825601).
• Run across the whole of Drupal contrib via
  project_analysis: code
  branch master-next,
  generated patches under
  results-next.
  Spot-checking those patches drove several of the late fixes below: the PDO
  receiver guard, the BC-wrapper mutation bug, the ConstantToClassConstantRector
  generalisation, and the extra MethodToMethodWithCheckRector patterns.

Highlights

• Drupal 11.0–11.4 coverage. 72 rectors wired across five per-minor-version
  deprecation set lists, covering function → service / function → static / function
  → method-on-first-arg / class-constant → enum / class rename / argument removal
  / property → method / and configuration-key rewrites.
• Drupal 10.3 additions. 4 new D10 rectors covering REQUEST_TIME,
  ThemeHandlerInterface::rebuildThemeData(), ModuleHandlerInterface::getName(),
  and FileSystemInterface::EXISTS_* → FileExists enum.
• DrupalRectorSettings service. Three knobs for tuning runtime behaviour:
  toggle BC wrapping on/off, set a minimumCoreVersionSupported (contrib modules),
  and override the detected Drupal version (tests). Registered via
  $rectorConfig->singleton(DrupalRectorSettings::class, …) in the shipped
  rector.php.
• Generic data-driven rectors. A new shared rector
  (FunctionCallRemovalRector) and two extracted from per-version folders
  (DrupalServiceRenameRector, FunctionToFirstArgMethodRector) now live in
  src/Rector/Deprecation/ alongside the established shared rectors, so each
  Drupal version can register them via config-only entries rather than
  per-version subclasses. See the Generic shared rectors subsection below
  for a labelled list of what's new vs. refactored vs. unchanged.
• BC wrapping covers all expression rewrites. Previously
  AbstractDrupalCoreRector::createBcCallOnExpr() only wrapped CallLike → CallLike
  rewrites; it now wraps any Node\Expr → Node\Expr transformation
  (ClassConstFetch, PropertyFetch, etc.), so mixed-type rewrites get
  DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall() automatically.
• Claude Code skills. Four .claude/skills/ entries (/rector-discover,
  /rector-implement, /rector-qa, /rector-live-test) drive the conversion
  pipeline from dbuytaert/drupal-digests
  rules into shipped rector classes with tests. Includes the 700-line canonical
  conversion prompt and three reusable recipes.

Added

Infrastructure

• rector-hook-convert.php: dedicated configuration that registers
  only HookConvertRector, for running hook conversion as a separate second
  pass. HookConvertRector writes the generated src/Hook/*Hooks.php to disk
  outside Rector's file pipeline, so bundling it with the deprecation sets would
  copy un-fixed hook bodies into the new class. Documented in the README
  ("Converting hooks to OOP hook classes"): run deprecations first, then this
  config.
• DrupalRectorSettings (src/Services/DrupalRectorSettings.php): container-
  managed settings object with enableBackwardCompatibility() /
  disableBackwardCompatibility() / setMinimumCoreVersionSupported(string) /
  setDrupalVersion(?string) methods. Resolved via
  static::getContainer()->make(DrupalRectorSettings::class) in tests.
• AbstractDrupalRectorTestCase (tests/src/AbstractDrupalRectorTestCase.php):
  replaces the prior namespaced-class \Drupal hack with a proper
  setUp/tearDown pattern that resets the shared DrupalRectorSettings
  singleton between tests, preventing version-override leaks.
• createBcCallOnExpr() widened to Node\Expr in
  src/Rector/AbstractDrupalCoreRector.php, so non-CallLike rewrites are
  BC-wrapped too.
• .gitattributes added with export-ignore entries for .claude/,
  .github/, tests/, fixtures/, docs/, scripts/, phpstan*.neon,
  phpunit.xml, rector.php, etc. Keeps the Composer dist archive small and
  clean. (Verify with git archive HEAD | tar t | grep -c .claude; expect 0.)
• 25 PHPStan stubs under stubs/ covering core classes the rectors type-guard
  against (ModuleHandlerInterface, EntityInterface, ConfigEntityInterface,
  StatementPrefetchIterator, CachePluginBase, ThemeHandlerInterface,
  SessionManagerInterface, …).

Drupal 11 deprecation rules

Every rule wired across config/drupal-11/drupal-11.{0,1,2,3,4}-deprecations.php
is listed below. Each row links to the Drupal.org change record (or, if no
dedicated change record exists, the parent issue). Configurable generic rectors
(FunctionToServiceRector, FunctionToStaticRector, FunctionCallRemovalRector,
ConstantToClassConstantRector, ClassConstantToClassConstantRector,
MethodToMethodWithCheckRector, FunctionToFirstArgMethodRector,
RenameClassRector) may appear in multiple rows when they handle several
distinct deprecations in the same minor.

Drupal 11.0

Drupal 11.1

Drupal 11.2

Drupal 11.3

Drupal 11.4

Drupal 10.3 deprecation rules

Wired in config/drupal-10/drupal-10.3-deprecations.php.

Generic shared rectors

All eight live under src/Rector/Deprecation/. Each row labels what changed in
this release: (new) introduced in this PR, (refactored) existing class
restructured, (enhanced) new feature added, (moved) relocated from a
per-version folder, (pre-existing) unchanged but used by new D10.3 / D11
configs.

Tooling and scripts

• .claude/skills/rector-discover/SKILL.md: lists unimplemented
  drupal-digests rules by implementation phase; regenerates
  docs/rector-index.yml when stale.
• .claude/skills/rector-implement/SKILL.md: 14-step canonical conversion
  workflow from a digest rule to a finished rector class + test + fixture +
  config entry, with type-guard and version-gating quality gates.
• .claude/skills/rector-qa/SKILL.md: five-pass quality review (type
  guards, fixture coverage, BC decision correctness, @see URL accuracy,
  registration audit). Supports all mode for branch-wide scans.
• .claude/skills/rector-live-test/SKILL.md + setup-rector-test.sh:
  finds real contrib modules that use the deprecated API a rector targets and
  runs the rector against them to validate end-to-end. Uses
  search.tresbien.tech as primary source with
  GitLab API fallback.
• .claude/scripts/generate-rector-index.php: regenerates
  docs/rector-index.yml from the digests source.
• .claude/scripts/setup-repos.sh: clones repos/drupal-digests and
  repos/drupal-core for local development of new rectors.
• scripts/check-rector-coverage.php: evaluates real-world coverage by
  matching shipped rectors against real contrib patches.
• scripts/generate-deprecation-map.php: extracts @trigger_error
  deprecations from Drupal core into a structured YAML map.

Changed

• ClassConstantToClassConstantRector and MethodToMethodWithCheckRector now
  extend AbstractDrupalCoreRector and auto-wrap their Expr → Expr rewrites
  via DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall(). Their configuration value
  objects (ClassConstantToClassConstantConfiguration,
  MethodToMethodWithCheckConfiguration) gain a required introducedVersion
  constructor argument and now implement VersionedConfigurationInterface.
  This closes three D11 → D10 runtime regressions (Comment* enums in 11.4,
  RequirementSeverity in 11.2, AliasManager method rename in 11.1) without
  moving anything to a -breaking.php set.

• MethodToMethodWithCheckRector no longer attaches a "please confirm the
  receiver type" TODO comment for the maybe type-inference case. The
  comment-on-parent-statement mechanism relied on parent-node tracking that
  Rector 2.x removed; the BC wrap makes both code paths runtime-safe by
  selecting the right call based on \Drupal::VERSION, which addresses the
  underlying concern.

• Shipped rector.php disables BC wrapping by default. New users get clean
  one-version rewrites out of the box. Contrib modules and projects that need to
  run on multiple Drupal versions should call ->enableBackwardCompatibility()
  and optionally ->setMinimumCoreVersionSupported(...) on the
  DrupalRectorSettings singleton.

  The DrupalRectorSettings class default for backwardCompatibilityEnabled
  remains true (avoids silently changing behaviour for existing users who do
  not call either method on the service); the shipped rector.php invokes
  disableBackwardCompatibility() explicitly to surface the project-level
  recommended default.

• PHPUnit test setup: tests now extend AbstractDrupalRectorTestCase
  instead of AbstractRectorTestCase directly so DrupalRectorSettings
  mutations don't leak between tests.

• composer.json dev-dependency bumps:

  • phpunit/phpunit ^10.0 → ^12.5.24
  • phpstan/phpstan ^1.12 || ^2.0 → ^2.1.54
  • phpstan/phpstan-deprecation-rules ^1.2 || ^2.0 → ^2.0.4
  • friendsofphp/php-cs-fixer ^3.58 → ^3.95.1
  • symplify/vendor-patches ^11.0 → ^12.0.6
  • cweagans/composer-patches ^1.7.2 → ^2.0
  • symfony/yaml ^5 || ^6 || ^7 → ^5 || ^6 || ^7.4.8

• CI matrix simplified to PHP 8.3 + Rector 2 (previously also tested PHP 8.2

  • Rector 1).

• Drupal stub VERSION bumped from 10.99.x-dev to 11.99.x-dev so D11
  rules fire in tests by default; D11 tests opt out via
  DrupalRectorSettings::setDrupalVersion('1.0.0') for below-version cases.

• Composer autoload exclude-from-classmap entries added for
  **/fixture/**, **/fixture-*/**, **/Fixture/** so fixtures don't pollute
  consuming projects' class maps.

Removed

• Rector 1 support. composer.json now requires rector/rector:^2. Drupal
  10 EOL is August 2026; Rector 1 was already EOL upstream.
• docs/rules_overview.md (1,210 lines, auto-generated). Replaced by
  on-demand generation via .claude/scripts/generate-rector-index.php →
  docs/rector-index.yml. The composer docs script that produced the file
  is also removed.
• Three single-purpose constant rectors collapsed into
  ConstantToClassConstantRector config entries:
  ReplaceRequirementSeverityConstantsRector,
  ReplaceJsonApiFilterConstantsRector,
  ReplaceLocaleTranslationDefaultServerPatternRector.

Fixed

• DrupalServiceRenameRector BC wrapper fallback. refactorWithConfiguration
  used to mutate the input $node in place; the parent's createBcCallOnExpr
  reused that same already-mutated node as the deprecated branch of the
  DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall(...), so both branches ended
  up calling the renamed service and the legacy fallback was silently lost. Now
  clones before mutating; a regression fixture exercises the BC wrapping.
• ReplacePdoFetchConstantsRector native-PDO receiver guard. The original
  matcher rewrote setFetchMode / fetch* calls on any object whose
  argument was \PDO::FETCH_*, which would break native PDO statements. Now
  guards the receiver with
  isObjectType($node->var, new ObjectType('Drupal\Core\Database\StatementInterface')).
• NodeStorageDeprecatedMethodsRector missing countDefaultLanguageRevisions:
  the statement-level REMOVE_NODE case was missing entirely; now covered.
• ReplaceEntityOriginalPropertyRector nullsafe support: added
  NullsafePropertyFetch to the node types and refactor logic so
  $entity?->original is rewritten to $entity?->getOriginal().
• ReplaceEditorLoadRector argument count: added an arg-count guard so
  editor_load() (no args) and editor_load($a, $b) (two args) are not
  incorrectly transformed.
• RemoveCacheExpireOverrideRector: handles Time/Tag/None cache plugin
  subclasses, FQCN imports, aliased imports, and ignores side-effects in the
  method body.
• 8 unregistered rectors wired into deprecation configs: eight new D11
  rector classes shipped with tests but no config/ references in earlier
  drafts; now all wired into the matching drupal-11.X-deprecations.php.
• AbstractDrupalCoreRector::createBcCallOnExpr visibility: changed from
  private to protected so subclasses can call it directly when they have to
  build manual BC wraps for non-Expr top-level nodes (e.g.,
  ReplacePdoFetchConstantsRector::refactor()'s ArrayItem branch).

Compatibility

Upgrade notes

Refresh rector.php

The shipped rector.php was rewritten to register the DrupalRectorSettings
singleton. Refresh your project's copy:

cp vendor/palantirnet/drupal-rector/rector.php .

If you have local customisations, merge them by hand. The notable new block is:

$rectorConfig->singleton(DrupalRectorSettings::class, fn () =>
    (new DrupalRectorSettings())
        ->disableBackwardCompatibility()
);

Contrib modules running against an older minimum Drupal version

If your module must keep running on (e.g.) Drupal 10.5 while the development
environment runs 11.x, enable BC wrapping and tell the settings the minimum core
version you support so the wrappers are emitted correctly:

$rectorConfig->singleton(DrupalRectorSettings::class, fn () =>
    (new DrupalRectorSettings())
        ->enableBackwardCompatibility()
        ->setMinimumCoreVersionSupported('10.5.0')
);

Cleaning up old BC wrappers

Once you raise your module's minimum supported Drupal version, the existing
DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall() wrappers in your code become
redundant. Strip them with DeprecationHelperRemoveRector (commented example in
the shipped rector.php):

$rectorConfig->ruleWithConfiguration(DeprecationHelperRemoveRector::class, [
    new DeprecationHelperRemoveConfiguration('10.3.0'),
]);

This rewrites every wrapper whose introducedVersion is below 10.3.0 back to
the new API call directly.

Drupal 8 / 9 legacy rectors

Still included for legacy projects. The classes
Drupal8\Rector\Deprecation\DrupalServiceRenameRector and
Drupal9\Rector\Deprecation\FunctionToFirstArgMethodRector are thin subclasses
re-validating their D8/D9 configuration value objects; behaviour is unchanged.

Full Changelog: 1.0.0-beta2...1.0.0-beta3

Added

• Infrastructure for composer-based sets (rectorphp/rector#9778) — ships DrupalRector\Set\DrupalSetProvider, which will let Rector pick the Drupal deprecation sets automatically from the installed drupal/core version. This is groundwork only: it is inert until a Rector release ships the SetGroup::DRUPAL group and the withComposerBased(drupal: ...) toggle, which has not landed yet.

Changed

• RemoveFilterTipsLongParamRector moved from the default deprecation set into the opt-in DRUPAL_114_BREAKING set (#371). Removing $long from a tips() override is non-BC: FilterInterface and FilterBase still declare tips($long = FALSE) on every Drupal minor below 11.4, and PHP rejects a child that drops a parameter the parent declares with a fatal at class-declaration time (Declaration of …::tips() must be compatible with …FilterInterface::tips($long = false)). In beta1 the rule ran in the default set and so fired against contrib still supporting Drupal < 11.4, producing a signature-mismatch fatal there. It now only runs once the consumer's minimum supported Drupal is ≥ 11.4; it must not block Drupal 12 compatibility (on Drupal 12 the parent no longer declares $long, so an un-rewritten subclass keeps a harmless extra optional param — phpstan grumbles but it runs). Surfaced by a rejected non-BC change to token_filter (#3603786).

Added

• template_preprocess_*() family (Drupal 11.3, #3504125) — extended FunctionToServiceRector coverage with 14 more template_preprocess_*() functions deprecated in drupal:11.3.0 and removed in drupal:12.0.0. Each is rewritten (BC-wrapped via DeprecationHelper) to the equivalent *Preprocess service method: table, tablesort_indicator, item_list, region, maintenance_page, maintenance_task_list, install_page → ThemePreprocess; image → ImagePreprocess; breadcrumb → BreadcrumbPreprocess; pager → PagerPreprocess; field, field_multiple_value_form → FieldPreprocess; menu_local_task, menu_local_action → MenuPreprocess. (template_preprocess_authorize_report() has no replacement and is intentionally excluded.)

• RemoveSourceModuleFromMigrateSourceAttributeRector — removes the source_module named argument from #[MigrateSource] attribute usages. Only the Drupal\migrate\Attribute\MigrateSource attribute is targeted (an attribute of the same short name from another namespace is left untouched). The source_module constructor parameter was removed from the attribute in drupal:11.2.0; passing #[MigrateSource(source_module: '...')] now raises an "Unknown named parameter" error at plugin discovery time. The rewrite cannot be BC-wrapped (an attribute is not an Expr → Expr transformation) and the argument is mutually exclusive across minors, so the rule lives in the opt-in Drupal11SetList::DRUPAL_112_BREAKING set, not the default deprecation set. For plugins extending DrupalSqlBase the source_module value must be re-declared via the @MigrateSource annotation or the migration YAML after removal — a manual follow-up this rule does not automate. Apply only after dropping support for Drupal minors that predate 11.2.0. #3009349 / change record

• UploadedFileConstraintArrayOptionsToNamedArgsRector — replaces the deprecated options-array argument of UploadedFileConstraint with explicit named constructor arguments (e.g. new UploadedFileConstraint(['maxSize' => 1024000]) → new UploadedFileConstraint(maxSize: 1024000)). Passing an options array is deprecated in drupal:11.4.0 and removed in drupal:12.0.0. The transformation is BC-wrapped: the named-argument constructor was introduced alongside the deprecation, so the new form would fatal (Unknown named parameter) on Drupal < 11.4. The rector therefore wraps the new expression in DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall(), using named arguments on Drupal ≥ 11.4 and the original options array on older versions. See #3561135 and the change record.

• DRUPAL_114_BREAKING: HelpSearch → SearchHelpSearch class rename. Drupal\help\Plugin\Search\HelpSearch was moved out of the help module and renamed to Drupal\search_help\Plugin\Search\SearchHelpSearch in the new search_help core sub-module (system_update_11400(), drupal:11.4.0). Added as a RenameClassRector entry to drupal-11.4-breaking.php: the SearchHelpSearch class does not exist on any Drupal minor below 11.4, and a use / ::class rename is structural and cannot be BC-wrapped, so applying it against code that still needs to run on an older minor would fatal there. Opt in via Drupal11SetList::DRUPAL_114_BREAKING only after dropping support for Drupal < 11.4 (#3581109).

• CommentLinkBuilderConstructorRector — rewrites the deprecated 5-argument new \Drupal\comment\CommentLinkBuilder(...) constructor call to the new 3-argument form, dropping the $module_handler and $entity_type_manager arguments (deprecated in drupal:11.3.0, removed in drupal:12.0.0). Because the 3-argument signature only exists on Drupal >= 11.3.0, the rewrite is BC-wrapped with DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall() so the original 5-argument call still runs on older Drupal. Only calls with exactly 5 positional arguments are rewritten.

• ReplaceItemAttributesWithAttributesRector — replaces the deprecated #item_attributes key with #attributes in render arrays whose #theme is image_formatter or responsive_image_formatter. The #item_attributes property is deprecated in drupal:11.4.0 and removed in drupal:12.0.0. The transformation is BC-wrapped: the #attributes variable was only added to these theme hooks in 11.4.0, so a plain rename would silently drop the attributes on Drupal < 11.4. The rector therefore wraps the array literal in DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall(), using #attributes on Drupal ≥ 11.4 and the original #item_attributes on older versions. Arrays with an unrelated (or absent) #theme, and arrays already using #attributes, are left untouched. #3554447 / CR.

• HookRequirementsAlterRenameRector — renames procedural {module}_requirements_alter() hook implementations to {module}_runtime_requirements_alter(), deprecated in drupal:11.3.0 and removed in drupal:13.0.0. The runtime hook is only invoked on Drupal minors where it exists, so the renamed function is a silent no-op on older Drupal; this is a non-BC rewrite and ships in the opt-in DRUPAL_113_BREAKING set, not the default deprecation set. The rule only renames functions with a single by-reference parameter, skips the hook_requirements_alter() API-doc function, and is idempotent — the _runtime_/_update_requirements_alter() hooks are left untouched.

• ReplaceDrupalStaticResetFileReferencesRector — rewrites drupal_static_reset('file_get_file_references') and drupal_static_reset('file_get_file_references:field_columns') to \Drupal::service('cache.memory')->invalidateTags(['file_references']). Both static-cache keys were deprecated in drupal:11.4.0 (removed in drupal:13.0.0) when the file-reference lookup moved to the new FileReferenceResolver service, which uses the file_references memory-cache tag instead of drupal_static(). Only those two literal keys are matched; other drupal_static_reset() calls, calls to file_get_file_references() itself, and named/unpacked argument forms are intentionally left for manual review. BC-wrapped via DeprecationHelper: the file_references cache tag does not exist before drupal:11.4.0, so the new call would be a silent no-op there — the wrapper keeps the original drupal_static_reset() on older versions and only switches to the cache.memory invalidation on drupal:11.4.0 and above.

• ReplaceNodeViewControllerRector (+ a companion RenameClassRector entry) — migrates the deprecated Drupal\node\Controller\NodeViewController to Drupal\Core\Entity\Controller\EntityViewController (deprecated in drupal:11.4.0, removed in drupal:13.0.0). The custom rector rewrites new NodeViewController($etm, $renderer, $currentUser, $entityRepository) to new EntityViewController($etm, $renderer), dropping the two extra constructor arguments that EntityViewController does not accept; it matches both the old and new class names so the argument trim is order-independent w.r.t. the rename pass. The RenameClassRector entry handles the structural references (use / extends / ::class / type hints). Ships in the opt-in DRUPAL_114_BREAKING set: unlike the other entries there, the replacement class exists on every supported minor (so it never fatals on a missing symbol), but reparenting extends NodeViewController to extends EntityViewController is behaviorally breaking on every minor — subclasses lose the node-specific create() / currentUser / entityRepository / title() / view() members and can throw an ArgumentCountError or call an undefined title(), so it needs manual review. A subclass's own parent::__construct($a, $b, $c, $d) is not rewritten (PHP silently discards the extra arguments). #3589630 / CR.

• RenameHookRankingRector — renames the deprecated OOP hook attribute #[Hook('ranking')] to #[Hook('node_search_ranking')]. Only the Drupal\Core\Hook\Attribute\Hook attribute is targeted (an attribute of the same short name from another namespace is left untouched), and only the 'ranking' argument is rewritten — the implementing method name and any docblocks are unchanged. hook_ranking() is deprecated in drupal:11.3.0 and removed in drupal:12.0.0; use hook_node_search_ranking() instead. Because the node_search_ranking hook is only invoked on Drupal minors where it exists, a plain rename is a silent no-op on older Drupal, and an attribute is not an Expr → Expr transformation so it cannot be BC-wrapped. The rule therefore lives in the opt-in Drupal11SetList::DRUPAL_113_BREAKING set, not the default deprecation set. #1019966 / change record

• BlockContentSelectionExtendsRector — reparents entity reference selection plugins for the block_content entity type from Drupal\Core\Entity\Plugin\EntityReferenceSelection\DefaultSelection to Drupal\block_content\Plugin\EntityReferenceSelection\BlockContentSelection. The hook that automatically filtered non-reusable blocks out of those selections (block_content_query_entity_reference_alter()) is deprecated and removed in drupal:12.0.0; BlockContentSelection performs that filtering itself. The rewrite is gated on the EntityReferenceSelection attribute carrying entity_types: ["block_content"], so DefaultSelection subclasses for other entity types are left untouched, and the canonical core BlockContentSelection is skipped so it is not made to extend itself. Ships in the opt-in DRUPAL_114_BREAKING set: BlockContentSelection was added to core alongside the deprecation (a new class, so 11.4.0) and does not exist on any minor below 11.4, so reparenting onto it would fatal there, and a class … extends … declaration cannot be BC-wrapped. #2987159 / CR.

• RemoveFilterTipsLongParamRector — drops the deprecated $long parameter from a filter plugin's tips() override and the second argument from _filter_tips() calls. The $long parameter and the long-format "filter tips" page are deprecated in drupal:11.4.0 and removed in drupal:12.0.0. (Reclassified into the opt-in breaking set in 1.0.0-beta2 — see below.) #3505370 / CR.

• RemoveRouteBuilderDeprecatedArgsRector — rewrites the deprecated 6-argument new \Drupal\Core\Routing\RouteBuilder(...) instantiation to the new 4-argument form (deprecated in drupal:11.4.0, removed in drupal:12.0.0). The $module_handler (arg 3) and $controller_resolver (arg 4) arguments were removed and $check_provider shifted from position 5 to position 3; YAML route discovery moved to the new YamlRouteDiscovery service. Only 6-argument positional calls to RouteBuilder are matched; the new signature only exists on Drupal ≥ 11.4, so the change is BC-wrapped via DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall().

• RemoveDrupalToStringTraitRector — removes use Drupal\Component\Utility\ToStringTrait; from a class body and inserts an inline public function __toString(): string { return (string) $this->render(); } in its place. The trait was a PHP 7.x workaround for fatal errors thrown from __toString(); on PHP 8+ exceptions inside __toString() propagate normally, so the trait is deprecated in drupal:11.4.0 and removed in drupal:13.0.0. The rector preserves an existing __toString() if the class already defines one (only the composition is removed) and keeps any sibling traits in a comma-separated use list. The file-level use Drupal\Component\Utility\ToStringTrait; import is intentionally left in place — Rector's generic unused-import cleanup is a separate concern. The replacement body is pure PHP, so the transformed code runs on every Drupal version — no BC wrapping needed. #3548957 / CR.

• RemoveInstallSchemaSystemSequencesRector — removes deprecated KernelTestBase::installSchema('system', 'sequences') calls in test classes. The sequences table was deprecated in drupal:10.2.0 and fully removed in drupal:12.0.0 via #3335756; the call now throws a LogicException on Drupal 12. The rule removes the entire statement when the second argument is the string 'sequences' or an array containing only 'sequences'; when the array also lists other tables, only the 'sequences' entry is stripped. Receiver is type-guarded to Drupal\KernelTests\KernelTestBase, so unrelated installSchema() methods on other classes are left untouched. See change record #3349345.

• GroupLegacyToIgnoreDeprecationsRector — replaces the @group legacy PHPDoc annotation with PHPUnit 10's native #[\PHPUnit\Framework\Attributes\IgnoreDeprecations] attribute on both method- and class-level test declarations. Drupal 11 dropped the symfony/phpunit-bridge dependency and adopted PHPUnit 10, whose attribute supersedes the bridge's docblock annotation. A Drupal shim preserves the annotation form for BC, so the rewrite is purely a forward-compatibility cleanup rather than a hard requirement, but test classes that already declare the attribute are skipped so the rule is idempotent. The rector strips just the @group legacy line from the docblock — surrounding annotations (@covers, @dataProvider, description text) are preserved — and inserts the attribute immediately above the method or class declaration. PHPStan cannot surface this deprecation because @group legacy is a docblock convention, not a code-level @deprecated symbol; this rule must be applied proactively as part of a PHPUnit 10 migration. #3417066 / related: #3365413.

• RemoveAliasManagerCacheMethodCallsRector — deletes calls to AliasManager::setCacheKey() and AliasManager::writeCache(). Both methods were deprecated in drupal:11.3.0 and are removed in drupal:13.0.0 with no replacement — they became no-ops when the path alias preload cache was replaced by a Fiber-based bulk-lookup strategy. The receiver must be typed as \Drupal\path_alias\AliasManager or AliasManagerInterface; this guard prevents accidentally removing unrelated methods that share the name (notably ModuleHandler::writeCache()). Removes the entire expression statement, leaving surrounding code intact. No BC wrapping is needed since dropping a no-op call is safe on every Drupal version. #3496369 / CR.

• EntityFormModeEmptyDescriptionToNullRector — rewrites EntityFormMode::create([..., 'description' => '', ...]) to use NULL instead of the empty string. Setting the description property of an EntityFormMode to '' was deprecated in drupal:11.2.0 and must be NULL in drupal:12.0.0. Matches both the short class name (use-imported) and the fully-qualified \Drupal\Core\Entity\Entity\EntityFormMode::create() form, and leaves unrelated classes (e.g. EntityViewMode), non-empty descriptions, and already-migrated NULL values untouched. The replacement is plain PHP, so no BC wrapping is needed. #3448457 / CR.

• ViewsBlockItemsPerPageNoneToNullRector — rewrites ViewsBlockBase::setConfigurationValue('items_per_page', 'none') to setConfigurationValue('items_per_page', NULL). The string 'none' was deprecated in drupal:11.2.0 and is removed in drupal:12.0.0; NULL is the canonical value for inheriting the items-per-page setting from the underlying view. The receiver is type-guarded to ViewsBlockBase (or any subclass), so unrelated setConfigurationValue() calls on other plugin types are left untouched. The replacement is plain PHP, so no BC wrapping is needed. #3520946 / CR.

• TaxonomyTermPageVariableToViewModeRector — replaces reads of $variables['page'] with $variables['view_mode'] === 'full' inside taxonomy term preprocess hooks (procedural *_preprocess_taxonomy_term() functions and class-based preprocessTaxonomyTerm() methods). The $variables['page'] template variable for taxonomy terms was deprecated in drupal:11.3.0 and is removed in drupal:13.0.0. Assignment targets ($variables['page'] = …) are intentionally left untouched so legacy initialisation continues to work, and unrelated preprocess hooks are not scanned. The replacement is a pure-PHP === comparison, so the transformed code runs on every Drupal version — no BC wrapping needed. #3535439 / CR.

• ReplaceNonBoolAccessRector — rewrites integer-literal #access values inside render arrays to proper booleans: 1 (or any non-zero integer) becomes true, and 0 becomes false. Passing non-boolean, non-AccessResultInterface values to #access was deprecated in drupal:11.4.0 and will be removed in drupal:13.0.0. The rule matches on ArrayItem nodes whose key is the string literal '#access' and whose value is an integer literal — it deliberately ignores booleans, variables, function/method calls, and any other expression, because the correct boolean replacement for those cannot be determined statically. The replacement is pure PHP (true / false), so no BC wrapping is needed; the transformed code runs on every Drupal version. #3526250.

• ReplaceDialogClassOptionRector — rewrites the removed $dialog_options['dialogClass'] key to $dialog_options['classes']['ui-dialog'] in new OpenDialogCommand(...), new OpenModalDialogCommand(...), and new OpenOffCanvasDialogCommand(...) calls. dialogClass was deprecated in drupal:11.3.0 and removed in drupal:12.0.0. Receiver narrowing is by FQCN match on the resolved New_->class (Drupal\Core\Ajax\OpenDialogCommand, Drupal\Core\Ajax\OpenModalDialogCommand, or Drupal\Core\Ajax\OpenOffCanvasDialogCommand), and the $dialog_options argument is located per-class (4th argument for OpenDialogCommand, 3rd for the modal/off-canvas commands), so unrelated constructors with similarly-shaped option arrays are left alone. Handles three array shapes: (a) no existing classes key → adds 'classes' => ['ui-dialog' => $value]; (b) classes exists without ui-dialog → adds 'ui-dialog' => $value inside it; (c) classes['ui-dialog'] already present and both old/new values are string literals → concatenates with a space. Non-literal values (variables, function calls, dynamic arrays) at any position cause the rule to skip rather than guess. The replacement form classes['ui-dialog'] has existed in core since 10.3.x, so the transformed output runs on every drupal-rector–supported Drupal minor (D10.3+) — no BC wrapping needed. #3571054 / CR.

• RemoveToolkitArgFromImageToolkitOperationConstructorRector — removes the deprecated ImageToolkitInterface $toolkit 4th argument from ImageToolkitOperationBase subclass constructors and strips it from the matching parent::__construct() call. The parameter was deprecated in drupal:11.4.0 and will be removed in drupal:13.0.0; the plugin manager now injects the toolkit via setToolkit() after instantiation, enabling constructor autowiring. The rector only fires when the subclass directly extends ImageToolkitOperationBase, the constructor has at least five parameters, the 4th is typed exactly as \Drupal\Core\ImageToolkit\ImageToolkitInterface, and $toolkit appears exactly once in the constructor body (as the 4th argument of parent::__construct()). The usage-count walk skips nested closures and arrow-functions so a $toolkit-shadowing inner scope cannot inflate the count. No BC wrapping is needed: the parent signature accepts the union LoggerInterface|ImageToolkitInterface, so the transformed code runs on every drupal:11.4.x+ version. #3559481 / CR.

• RemoveRendererAddCacheableDependencyNonObjectRector — deletes calls to RendererInterface::addCacheableDependency($elements, $dependency) whose second argument is statically provable to be a non-object (bool, int, float, string, null, or array). Passing such values was deprecated in drupal:11.3.0 and will throw in drupal:13.0.0; at runtime it silently sets max-age = 0 on the render array, making the page uncacheable for no useful gain. The rector matches at statement level so the entire expression is removed, never partially rewritten. The receiver is type-guarded to \Drupal\Core\Render\RendererInterface (catching the concrete Renderer and any other implementer), and the argument count must be exactly two — this distinguishes the call from the single-argument addCacheableDependency() defined on BubbleableMetadata and RefinableCacheableDependencyInterface. The PHPStan type of the dependency must satisfy isObject()->no(), so any call where the argument might be an object at runtime (variables typed as configs, entities, or mixed) is left untouched — the rector targets only the unambiguous primitive-passing mistake the deprecation was added to flag. No BC wrapping is needed because the removed call is a silent uncacheability bug on every Drupal version. #3525388 / CR.

• DrupalGetHeadersAssocArrayRector — converts the two deprecated UiHelperTrait::drupalGet() $headers argument shapes to the documented associative format: integer-keyed colon-separated strings (['X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest']) are split to ['X-Requested-With' => 'XMLHttpRequest'], and null values (['Accept-Language' => NULL]) become empty strings (['Accept-Language' => '']). The integer-keyed path requires the conventional Name: value (colon-space) form and a name part matching [A-Za-z][A-Za-z0-9-]*, so incidental colon-containing strings (URLs, paths) are not silently split. Guarded against Drupal\Tests\BrowserTestBase so KernelTestBase (which uses HttpKernelUiHelperTrait and does not emit this deprecation) is left alone. Deprecated in drupal:11.1.0, removed in drupal:12.0.0; replacement is plain PHP so no BC wrapping is needed. Live-tested against pager_serializer. #3440169 / CR (indexed headers) / CR (null values).

• ReplaceHideShowWithPrintedRector — replaces statement-level calls to the deprecated global hide() and show() functions (deprecated in drupal:11.4.0, removed in drupal:13.0.0) with direct $element['#printed'] = TRUE/FALSE assignment. Expression-context uses (where the return value is captured) are intentionally skipped because the original returns the element while the rewrite would not. Live-tested against fpa, saml_sp, vertical_tabs_config, and field_group_background_image. #2258355 / CR.

• GetDrupalRootToRootPropertyRector — rewrites calls to DrupalKernelInterface::getDrupalRoot() to direct access of the $this->root property on Drupal base test classes (BrowserTestBase, KernelTestBase, UnitTestCase). getDrupalRoot() was deprecated in drupal:11.4.0 and removed in drupal:13.0.0. The receiver is type-guarded to the listed base classes (and their subclasses), so unrelated getDrupalRoot() methods on other classes are left alone. No BC wrapping is needed — the $root property has existed on the trait since Drupal 10.x. #3589047 / CR.

• ReplaceLocaleTranslationPathConfigRector — rewrites chained \Drupal::config('locale.settings')->get('translation.path') (and equivalents via configFactory()->get('locale.settings')->get(...), $this->config('locale.settings')->get(...), and similar) to \Drupal\Core\Site\Settings::get('locale_translation_path', 'public://translations'). The locale.settings:translation.path config key was deprecated in drupal:11.4.0 and is removed in drupal:13.0.0; the interface translations directory path must now be set as $settings['locale_translation_path'] in settings.php. On older Drupal the value still lives in config, so the replacement is BC-wrapped with DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall(). Matching is purely structural — two literal keys ('locale.settings' and 'translation.path') must both appear in the expected positions, so unrelated config reads and standalone $config->get('translation.path') calls are left untouched. Caveat: the BC wrapper gates on \Drupal::VERSION, not on where the value is stored. Before running this rule, confirm that any customised translation path has been moved to $settings['locale_translation_path'] in settings.php; otherwise the new branch silently returns the default 'public://translations' even when the config still holds the customised value. PHPStan / upgrade_status cannot detect this deprecation — the deprecated symbol is the config key, not a PHP API with @deprecated or trigger_error(), so this rule must be applied proactively as part of an 11.4 → 13 migration plan. #3571593 / CR.

• ViewsConfigUpdaterClassResolverToServiceRector — rewrites \Drupal::classResolver(\Drupal\views\ViewsConfigUpdater::class) to \Drupal::service(\Drupal\views\ViewsConfigUpdater::class). In drupal:11.3.0 ViewsConfigUpdater was registered as a service; classResolver() returns a fresh instance on each call, so state set via setDeprecationsEnabled(FALSE) was lost across hook invocations. The new call only resolves on Drupal ≥ 11.3.0 (the service isn't registered on older versions), so the replacement is BC-wrapped with DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall(). Three layered guards ensure only the targeted call shape is touched: receiver must be \Drupal, method must be classResolver, and the single argument must be \Drupal\views\ViewsConfigUpdater::class. #3529274 / CR.

• ReplaceExpectDeprecationRector — migrates removed test framework methods to their PHPUnit 11+ replacements. Renames are BC-wrapped with DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall() so tests keep passing on both pre-11.4 (old methods) and 11.4+ (new methods). Covers: $this->expectDeprecation($msg) and $this->expectDeprecationMessage($msg) → $this->expectUserDeprecationMessage($msg); $this->expectDeprecationMessageMatches($p) → $this->expectUserDeprecationMessageMatches($p); bare $this->expectDeprecation() (no-arg PHPUnit form) → removed. ExpectDeprecationTrait is deprecated in drupal:11.4.0 and removed in drupal:12.0.0. #3550268 / CR.

• ReplaceCommentPreviewConstantsRector — rewrites the legacy DRUPAL_DISABLED / DRUPAL_OPTIONAL / DRUPAL_REQUIRED constant arguments to CommentTestBase::setCommentPreview() to the corresponding Drupal\comment\CommentPreviewMode enum case. Only these named constants are matched (ConstFetch nodes) — a bare integer literal such as setCommentPreview(0) is left untouched. Passing the constants was deprecated in drupal:11.3.0 and is removed in drupal:13.0.0. BC-wrapped via DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall() so the rewrite still runs on pre-11.3 Drupal where the enum doesn't yet exist. #3538660 / CR.

• RemovePhpUnitCompatibilityTraitRector — removes use Drupal\Tests\PhpUnitCompatibilityTrait; from test class declarations. The trait was a forward-compatibility shim for PHPUnit API differences across versions; it is deleted from Drupal core in Drupal 12 via #3582118, at which point any test class still composing the trait fatal-errors at autoload time because the trait class no longer exists.

  Gated to Drupal 12 only — and deliberately off by default. The trait still exists on Drupal 10 (and may still hold shim methods that tests depend on) and is an empty no-op on Drupal 11. Because the trait composition is a structural Class_ change, not an Expr → Expr rewrite, it cannot be BC-wrapped with DeprecationHelper. Running the rule prematurely on a D10-only codebase risks silently stripping a composition that the tests still rely on. It is registered in the default drupal-11.4-deprecations.php set but gated with DrupalIntroducedVersionConfiguration('12.0.0'), so it never fires unless the consumer explicitly sets the target Drupal version to 12.0.0 or higher via DrupalRectorSettings::setDrupalVersion('12.0.0'). The orphan top-of-file use Drupal\Tests\PhpUnitCompatibilityTrait; import is left in place — PHP never resolves an unused alias, so it remains harmless on D12; cleanup is optional and out of scope. #3582118.

• New opt-in "breaking" sets, one per Drupal 11 minor: Drupal11SetList::DRUPAL_111_BREAKING, DRUPAL_112_BREAKING, DRUPAL_113_BREAKING, DRUPAL_114_BREAKING. Each is loaded from config/drupal-11/drupal-11.X-breaking.php. Rules in these sets rewrite code into a form that does NOT run on every drupal-rector-supported minor — typically because the replacement symbol was introduced together with the deprecation and does not exist on older minors, and the rewrite (class rename, trait composition, etc.) is structural and cannot be BC-wrapped. None of the breaking sets is included in DRUPAL_11X or DRUPAL_11; consumers must load each one explicitly after committing to drop the older minor(s) named in that file's docblock.

• Reclassified existing RenameClassRector entries as breaking, moved out of the default drupal-11.X-deprecations.php files and into the new per-minor breaking sets. Targets verified missing on Drupal 10.6.x:

  • DRUPAL_111_BREAKING: path_alias\AliasWhitelist[Interface] → path_alias\AliasPrefixList[Interface] (#3151086 / CR).
  • DRUPAL_112_BREAKING: Core\Entity\Query\Sql\pgsql\{QueryFactory,Condition} → pgsql\EntityQuery\* (#3488572 / CR); migrate_drupal\Plugin\migrate\source\{ContentEntity,ContentEntityDeriver} → migrate\Plugin\migrate\source\* (#3498915 / CR).
  • DRUPAL_113_BREAKING: workspaces\WorkspaceAssociation[Interface] → workspaces\WorkspaceTracker[Interface] (#3551446 / CR); the four block_content\Access\* aliases (AccessGroupAnd, DependentAccessInterface, RefinableDependentAccessInterface, RefinableDependentAccessTrait) → their canonical Core\Access\* homes. The canonical classes were introduced in drupal:11.3.0 (not earlier) and do not exist on any Drupal 10 branch, and RenameClassRector rewrites structural use/extends/implements/::class nodes that cannot be BC-wrapped, so the rewrite fatals on Drupal 10 (#3571874 / CR).
  • DRUPAL_114_BREAKING: menu_link_content\Plugin\migrate\process\{LinkOptions,LinkUri} → migrate\Plugin\migrate\process\* (#3560075 / CR).

• Dropped: the planned Drupal\jsonapi\EventSubscriber\ResourceResponseValidator → Drupal\jsonapi_response_validator\… rename (#3472008) is not shipped in any set. The replacement lives in core/modules/jsonapi/tests/modules/, i.e. a core test module that production code cannot rely on being loaded; rewriting the production FQCN to that test-module FQCN would fatal on D10 AND on any production D11 site that does not enable that test module.

• Class-rename entry for LibraryDiscovery: Drupal\Core\Asset\LibraryDiscovery → Drupal\Core\Asset\LibraryDiscoveryInterface. The concrete class was deprecated in drupal:11.1.0 and removed in drupal:12.0.0; the library.discovery service is now backed by LibraryDiscoveryCollector, so consumer code should type-hint the interface. Registered via Rector's built-in RenameClassRector in drupal-11.1-deprecations.php. LibraryDiscoveryInterface has existed since Drupal 10.0.x, so the rewrite is safe across all supported Drupal 10 and 11 minors. #3462871 (deprecation) / #3571057 (removal) / CR.

• Class-rename entry for EntityPermissionsRouteProviderWithCheck: Drupal\user\Entity\EntityPermissionsRouteProviderWithCheck → Drupal\user\Entity\EntityPermissionsRouteProvider. The WithCheck variant was deprecated in drupal:11.1.0 and removed in drupal:12.0.0; the base provider has existed since Drupal 10.0.x, so the rewrite is safe across all supported Drupal 10 and 11 minors. Registered via Rector's built-in RenameClassRector in drupal-11.1-deprecations.php. Access-check semantics: the WithCheck variant layered a _custom_access requirement (EntityPermissionsForm::access, also removed) on top of the base route to deny access when an entity type had no entity-specific permissions; the base provider already enforces _permission: administer permissions, so the security boundary is preserved and only the "no permissions defined → deny" convenience check is dropped. Subclass overrides that re-added the custom check are NOT rewritten — RenameClassRector only updates the parent class reference, so owners of such subclasses must port any remaining access logic into the route definition (the new model adds permission requirements directly on the route). Limitation — doctrine annotation strings are not rewritten. Real-world contrib usage is almost exclusively the entity-annotation form ("permissions" = "Drupal\user\Entity\EntityPermissionsRouteProviderWithCheck" inside a @ContentEntityType / @ConfigEntityType docblock). RenameClassRector only touches PHP Name nodes (use, extends, implements, ::class, typehints, instanceof) — it does not scan string literals inside doctrine annotations. Audited against Drupal contrib (api.tresbien.tech, 2026-05-27): three modules reference the class — all via the annotation form — and zero contrib modules use it in PHP code. Owners of those modules must hand-edit the annotation string; this rector is a safety net for use / extends patterns and for entity types that switch to PHP-attribute syntax. #3573870 / CR.

Changed

• Migration note for existing consumers of Drupal11SetList::DRUPAL_111 / DRUPAL_112 / DRUPAL_113: the class-rename entries listed above have been moved out of the per-minor DRUPAL_11X aggregates into new opt-in *_BREAKING sets. If you currently rely on rector rewriting any of these symbols, add the matching *_BREAKING set to your rector config alongside your existing DRUPAL_11X include — otherwise the rewrites silently stop:

  • DRUPAL_111: AliasWhitelist[Interface] → AliasPrefixList[Interface] now requires DRUPAL_111_BREAKING.
  • DRUPAL_112: Core\Entity\Query\Sql\pgsql\{QueryFactory,Condition} → pgsql\EntityQuery\* and the migrate_drupal → migrate source-plugin moves now require DRUPAL_112_BREAKING.
  • DRUPAL_113: WorkspaceAssociation[Interface] → WorkspaceTracker[Interface] now requires DRUPAL_113_BREAKING.

  The breaking sets are not transitively included by DRUPAL_11X or DRUPAL_11; consumers must load each one explicitly after committing to drop the older minor(s) named in that file's docblock.

• Guide: Running against a Drupal 10 project — covers the direct install and a standalone-runner recipe for sites whose PHPStan 1 tooling conflicts with Rector 2's PHPStan 2 requirement.

• HookConvertRector now produces lint-clean hook classes:

  • Methods whose body never references $this are declared static (satisfies the canvas.requireStaticMethods / "method does not use $this and should be declared static" check). The body originates from a procedural function, so this is safe by construction.
  • Global t() calls are rewritten to $this->t() and the generated class gains use Drupal\Core\StringTranslation\StringTranslationTrait; (clears the DrupalPractice.Objects.GlobalFunction.GlobalFunction warning). Because $this->t() introduces $this, those methods correctly remain non-static — the two rules compose rather than conflict.

Fixed

• ReplaceEntityOriginalPropertyRector now handles isset() and unset() correctly instead of producing a parse-time fatal. Those constructs accept only a variable, so blindly rewriting $entity->original to the $entity->getOriginal() method call (e.g. isset($entity->getOriginal())) was invalid PHP. Mirroring EntityBase's magic methods:

  • isset($entity->original) → $entity->getOriginal() !== NULL (__isset() returns getOriginal()), BC-wrapped in DeprecationHelper.
  • unset($entity->original) → $entity->setOriginal(NULL) (__unset() calls setOriginal(NULL)), BC-wrapped with $entity->original = NULL as the pre-11.2 path. In a multi-operand unset(), only the ->original operand is rewritten; the rest stay in a residual unset().

  Only the direct/outermost operand is fatal as a method call, so nested fetches are rewritten normally: isset($entity->original->field) → isset($entity->getOriginal()->field) and likewise for unset() (both parse fine — only a bare method call as the outermost operand is fatal). A fetch used as an array key, e.g. isset($map[$entity->original]), and empty() (which accepts arbitrary expressions) are also rewritten. The only form left untouched is the direct operand of a multi-operand isset() — isset($entity->original, $other) — where rewriting ->original would produce the fatal isset($entity->getOriginal(), $other).

• Loading the Drupal 9 and Drupal 11 sets together no longer crashes at container-build time. The Drupal 9 FunctionToFirstArgMethodRector (and the Drupal 8 DrupalServiceRenameRector) subclass the generic rule, so Rector delivered the generic rule's configuration to the subclass instance as well (afterResolving callbacks match by instanceof); the subclass' strict type guard then threw. The subclasses now ignore configuration that is not their own. This unblocks running the full, bundled rule set — including the D10-era deprecations that live in the Drupal 11 set — against Drupal 10 sites.

Changed

This will be the first alpha of the 1.0 line. Adds full Drupal 11 deprecation coverage (versions 11.0 through 11.4), a new container-managed settings service that gives users explicit control over backward-compatibility wrapping, a documented set of Claude Code skills for building further rectors, and drops support for Rector 1.

Real-world validated end-to-end:

• Applied to Drupal Canvas on the canvas-3589155 branch — the full Canvas test suite passed (pipeline 825601).
• Run across the whole of Drupal contrib via project_analysis — code branch master-next, generated patches under results-next. Spot-checking those patches surfaced and drove the late-PR fixes (PDO receiver guard, BC-wrapper mutation, ConstantToClassConstantRector generalisation, extra MethodToMethodWithCheckRector patterns).

Highlights

• Drupal 11.0–11.4 coverage. 72 rectors wired across five per-minor-version deprecation set lists, covering function → service / function → static / function → method-on-first-arg / class-constant → enum / class rename / argument removal / property → method / and configuration-key rewrites.
• Drupal 10.3 additions. 4 new D10 rectors covering REQUEST_TIME, ThemeHandlerInterface::rebuildThemeData(), ModuleHandlerInterface::getName(), and FileSystemInterface::EXISTS_* → FileExists enum.
• DrupalRectorSettings service. Three knobs for tuning runtime behaviour: toggle BC wrapping on/off, set a minimumCoreVersionSupported (contrib modules), and override the detected Drupal version (tests). Registered via $rectorConfig->singleton(DrupalRectorSettings::class, …) in the shipped rector.php.
• Generic data-driven rectors. A new shared rector (FunctionCallRemovalRector) and two extracted from per-version folders (DrupalServiceRenameRector, FunctionToFirstArgMethodRector) now live in src/Rector/Deprecation/ alongside the established shared rectors, so each Drupal version can register them via config-only entries rather than per-version subclasses. See the Generic shared rectors subsection below for a labelled list of what's new vs. refactored vs. unchanged.
• BC wrapping covers all expression rewrites. Previously AbstractDrupalCoreRector::createBcCallOnExpr() only wrapped CallLike → CallLike rewrites; it now wraps any Node\Expr → Node\Expr transformation (ClassConstFetch, PropertyFetch, etc.), so mixed-type rewrites get DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall() automatically.
• Claude Code skills. Four .claude/skills/ entries — /rector-discover, /rector-implement, /rector-qa, /rector-live-test — drive the conversion pipeline from dbuytaert/drupal-digests rules into shipped rector classes with tests. Includes the 700-line canonical conversion prompt and three reusable recipes.

Added

Infrastructure

• rector-hook-convert.php — dedicated configuration that registers only HookConvertRector, for running hook conversion as a separate second pass. HookConvertRector writes the generated src/Hook/*Hooks.php to disk outside Rector's file pipeline, so bundling it with the deprecation sets would copy un-fixed hook bodies into the new class. Documented in the README ("Converting hooks to OOP hook classes"): run deprecations first, then this config.
• DrupalRectorSettings (src/Services/DrupalRectorSettings.php) — container- managed settings object with enableBackwardCompatibility() / disableBackwardCompatibility() / setMinimumCoreVersionSupported(string) / setDrupalVersion(?string) methods. Resolved via static::getContainer()->make(DrupalRectorSettings::class) in tests.
• AbstractDrupalRectorTestCase (tests/src/AbstractDrupalRectorTestCase.php) — replaces the prior namespaced-class \Drupal hack with a proper setUp/tearDown pattern that resets the shared DrupalRectorSettings singleton between tests, preventing version-override leaks.
• createBcCallOnExpr() widened to Node\Expr in src/Rector/AbstractDrupalCoreRector.php, so non-CallLike rewrites are BC-wrapped too.
• .gitattributes added with export-ignore entries for .claude/, .github/, tests/, fixtures/, docs/, scripts/, phpstan*.neon, phpunit.xml, rector.php, etc. — keeps the Composer dist archive small and clean. (Verify with git archive HEAD | tar t | grep -c .claude — expect 0.)
• 25 PHPStan stubs under stubs/ covering core classes the rectors type-guard against (ModuleHandlerInterface, EntityInterface, ConfigEntityInterface, StatementPrefetchIterator, CachePluginBase, ThemeHandlerInterface, SessionManagerInterface, …).

Drupal 11 deprecation rules

Generic shared rectors

All eight live under src/Rector/Deprecation/. Each row labels what changed in this release: (new) introduced in this PR, (refactored) existing class restructured, (enhanced) new feature added, (moved) relocated from a per-version folder, (pre-existing) unchanged but used by new D10.3 / D11 configs.

Tooling and scripts

• .claude/skills/rector-discover/SKILL.md — lists unimplemented drupal-digests rules by implementation phase; regenerates docs/rector-index.yml when stale.
• .claude/skills/rector-implement/SKILL.md — 14-step canonical conversion workflow from a digest rule to a finished rector class + test + fixture + config entry, with type-guard and version-gating quality gates.
• .claude/skills/rector-qa/SKILL.md — five-pass quality review (type guards, fixture coverage, BC decision correctness, @see URL accuracy, registration audit). Supports all mode for branch-wide scans.
• .claude/skills/rector-live-test/SKILL.md + setup-rector-test.sh — finds real contrib modules that use the deprecated API a rector targets and runs the rector against them to validate end-to-end. Uses search.tresbien.tech as primary source with GitLab API fallback.
• .claude/scripts/generate-rector-index.php — regenerates docs/rector-index.yml from the digests source.
• .claude/scripts/setup-repos.sh — clones repos/drupal-digests and repos/drupal-core for local development of new rectors.
• scripts/check-rector-coverage.php — evaluates real-world coverage by matching shipped rectors against real contrib patches.
• scripts/generate-deprecation-map.php — extracts @trigger_error deprecations from Drupal core into a structured YAML map.

Changed

• ClassConstantToClassConstantRector and MethodToMethodWithCheckRector now extend AbstractDrupalCoreRector and auto-wrap their Expr → Expr rewrites via DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall(). Their configuration value objects (ClassConstantToClassConstantConfiguration, MethodToMethodWithCheckConfiguration) gain an optional introducedVersion constructor argument (default '0.0.0') and now implement VersionedConfigurationInterface. The default falls outside the BC-wrap gate (< 10.0.0), so consumers that instantiate these value objects without passing the new argument keep pre-refactor behaviour (no wrapping). This closes three D11 → D10 runtime regressions (Comment* enums in 11.4, RequirementSeverity in 11.2, AliasManager method rename in 11.1) without moving anything to a -breaking.php set.

• MethodToMethodWithCheckRector no longer attaches a "please confirm the receiver type" TODO comment for the maybe type-inference case. The comment-on-parent-statement mechanism relied on parent-node tracking that Rector 2.x removed. For configurations whose introducedVersion ≥ 10.0.0, the BC wrap selects the right call at runtime via \Drupal::VERSION and fully addresses the underlying concern. Configurations with an older introduced version (e.g. urlInfo → toUrl @ 8.0.0, getLowercaseLabel → getSingularLabel @ 8.8.0, clearCsrfTokenSeed → stampNew @ 9.2.0) fall outside the BC-wrap gate and rewrite unconditionally on a maybe-typed receiver. Contrib audit (api.tresbien.tech, 2026-05-28) found zero live callers of those three methods on receivers PHPStan cannot resolve to a concrete type, so the residual risk is theoretical.

• Shipped rector.php disables BC wrapping by default. New users get clean one-version rewrites out of the box. Contrib modules and projects that need to run on multiple Drupal versions should call ->enableBackwardCompatibility() and optionally ->setMinimumCoreVersionSupported(...) on the DrupalRectorSettings singleton.

  The DrupalRectorSettings class default for backwardCompatibilityEnabled remains true (avoids silently changing behaviour for existing users who do not call either method on the service); the shipped rector.php invokes disableBackwardCompatibility() explicitly to surface the project-level recommended default.

• PHPUnit test setup — tests now extend AbstractDrupalRectorTestCase instead of AbstractRectorTestCase directly so DrupalRectorSettings mutations don't leak between tests.

• composer.json dev-dependency bumps:

  • phpunit/phpunit ^10.0 → ^12.5.24
  • phpstan/phpstan ^1.12 || ^2.0 → ^2.1.54
  • phpstan/phpstan-deprecation-rules ^1.2 || ^2.0 → ^2.0.4
  • friendsofphp/php-cs-fixer ^3.58 → ^3.95.1
  • symplify/vendor-patches ^11.0 → ^12.0.6
  • cweagans/composer-patches ^1.7.2 → ^2.0
  • symfony/yaml ^5 || ^6 || ^7 → ^5 || ^6 || ^7.4.8

• CI matrix simplified to PHP 8.3 + Rector 2 (previously also tested PHP 8.2

  • Rector 1).

• Drupal stub VERSION bumped from 10.99.x-dev to 11.99.x-dev so D11 rules fire in tests by default; D11 tests opt out via DrupalRectorSettings::setDrupalVersion('1.0.0') for below-version cases.

• Composer autoload exclude-from-classmap entries added for **/fixture/**, **/fixture-*/**, **/Fixture/** so fixtures don't pollute consuming projects' class maps.

Removed

• Rector 1 support. composer.json now requires rector/rector:^2. Drupal 10 EOL is August 2026; Rector 1 was already EOL upstream.
• docs/rules_overview.md (1,210 lines, auto-generated). Replaced by on-demand generation via .claude/scripts/generate-rector-index.php → docs/rector-index.yml. The composer docs script that produced the file is also removed.
• Three single-purpose constant rectors collapsed into ConstantToClassConstantRector config entries: ReplaceRequirementSeverityConstantsRector, ReplaceJsonApiFilterConstantsRector, ReplaceLocaleTranslationDefaultServerPatternRector.

Fixed

• DrupalServiceRenameRector BC wrapper fallback. refactorWithConfiguration used to mutate the input $node in place; the parent's createBcCallOnExpr reused that same already-mutated node as the deprecated branch of the DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall(...), so both branches ended up calling the renamed service and the legacy fallback was silently lost. Now clones before mutating; a regression fixture exercises the BC wrapping.
• ReplacePdoFetchConstantsRector native-PDO receiver guard. The original matcher rewrote setFetchMode / fetch* calls on any object whose argument was \PDO::FETCH_*, which would break native PDO statements. Now guards the receiver with isObjectType($node->var, new ObjectType('Drupal\Core\Database\StatementInterface')).
• NodeStorageDeprecatedMethodsRector missing countDefaultLanguageRevisions — the statement-level REMOVE_NODE case was missing entirely; now covered.
• ReplaceEntityOriginalPropertyRector nullsafe support — added NullsafePropertyFetch to the node types and refactor logic so $entity?->original is rewritten to $entity?->getOriginal().
• ReplaceEditorLoadRector argument count — added an arg-count guard so editor_load() (no args) and editor_load($a, $b) (two args) are not incorrectly transformed.
• RemoveCacheExpireOverrideRector — handles Time/Tag/None cache plugin subclasses, FQCN imports, aliased imports, and ignores side-effects in the method body.
• 8 unregistered rectors wired into deprecation configs — eight new D11 rector classes shipped with tests but no config/ references in earlier drafts; now all wired into the matching drupal-11.X-deprecations.php.
• AbstractDrupalCoreRector::createBcCallOnExpr visibility — changed from private to protected so subclasses can call it directly when they have to build manual BC wraps for non-Expr top-level nodes (e.g., ReplacePdoFetchConstantsRector::refactor()'s ArrayItem branch).

Compatibility

Upgrade notes

Refresh rector.php

The shipped rector.php was rewritten to register the DrupalRectorSettings singleton. Refresh your project's copy:

cp vendor/palantirnet/drupal-rector/rector.php .

If you have local customisations, merge them by hand. The notable new block is:

$rectorConfig->singleton(DrupalRectorSettings::class, fn () =>
    (new DrupalRectorSettings())
        ->disableBackwardCompatibility()
);

Contrib modules running against an older minimum Drupal version

If your module must keep running on (e.g.) Drupal 10.5 while the development environment runs 11.x, enable BC wrapping and tell the settings the minimum core version you support so the wrappers are emitted correctly:

$rectorConfig->singleton(DrupalRectorSettings::class, fn () =>
    (new DrupalRectorSettings())
        ->enableBackwardCompatibility()
        ->setMinimumCoreVersionSupported('10.5.0')
);

Cleaning up old BC wrappers

Once you raise your module's minimum supported Drupal version, the existing DeprecationHelper::backwardsCompatibleCall() wrappers in your code become redundant. Strip them with DeprecationHelperRemoveRector (commented example in the shipped rector.php):

$rectorConfig->ruleWithConfiguration(DeprecationHelperRemoveRector::class, [
    new DeprecationHelperRemoveConfiguration('10.3.0'),
]);

This rewrites every wrapper whose introducedVersion is below 10.3.0 back to the new API call directly.

Drupal 8 / 9 legacy rectors

Still included for legacy projects. The classes Drupal8\Rector\Deprecation\DrupalServiceRenameRector and Drupal9\Rector\Deprecation\FunctionToFirstArgMethodRector are thin subclasses re-validating their D8/D9 configuration value objects; behaviour is unchanged.

Release highlights

This release of Drupal Rector introduces backwards compatible fixes for new rectors that target deprecations in Drupal 10. This is made possible by using the new DeprecationHelper class introduced in Drupal 10.1.

We also worked on making the code more sustainable by employing ConfigurableRectorInterface. This interface allows passing configuration to a rector to set certain variables. This means it is easier to reuse rectors that for example rewrite a function to a static call without introducing new code.

Rector has also been upgraded from 0.15 to 0.18, bringing a lot of improvement, but also making it harder to add comments to code generated by Rector. This there are instances where the previous version added comments, that the current does not.

• Support for Drupal 10 deprecations and testing by @bbrala in https://github.com/palantirnet/drupal-rector/pull/252
• Support for backwards compatible rector rules and version scoping of rules by @bbrala in https://github.com/palantirnet/drupal-rector/pull/250

Upgrade notes

Because rector moved to Laravel dependency injection a new version of rector.php must be copies/configured in your project root.

Release notes

• The 0.12.5 release of drupal-rector will include Rector 0.12.22. The upgrade path should be as simple as re-copying the configuration file. cp vendor/palantirnet/drupal-rector/rector.php

This release corrects an error in Rector 0.11.38 that was fixed in later versions (https://github.com/rectorphp/rector-src/pull/484).

See https://www.drupal.org/project/rector/issues/3225019 and a hat-tip to Grimreaper for reporting and testing this issue.

The release prepares drupal-rector to handle Drupal 9 deprecations, using PHP 8 and rector v 0.11.

This release also changes the file structure of the underlying code and introduced PHPUnit testing.

Note that this version can be run in PHP 7 without PHPUnit, which is not necessary for running rector upgrades on your code.

This release supports 8.x and 9.x code conversions and can be run with either Drupal 8 or Drupal 9.

This release brings us up-to-date with Rector 11 and adds support for PHPUnit testing.

PHPUnit testing requires PHP 8 and is used for development.

Creating new Rector rules and running the Rector update requires PHP 7 or higher.

This release updates to Rector version 0.10.0 and prepares for more substantial changes coming to prepare for Drupal 10.

Major changes

• We now use rector.php instead of rector.yml for configuration.
• Adds PHPStan for static code analysis.
• We are deprecating the Behat tests in favor of PHPUnit (See #152)
