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)
