# 5to6

A collection of [codemods](https://medium.com/@cpojer/effective-javascript-codemods-5a6686bb46fb) that allow you to transform your
js code from ES5 to ES6.

## What it does
Apply a transform to a file via [jscodeshift](https://github.com/facebook/jscodeshift):
`$ jscodeshift -t requireToImportTransform.js fileToTransform.js`

**Before**
```js
var jamis = require('jquery');
var $ = require('jquery');
var $ = require("jquery");
require('something');

var foo = bar;

// some comment
var jamis = 'bar',
_ = require('lodash'),
lodash = require('underscore'),
bar,
foo = 'bar',
$ = require('jquery');

var routeTo = require('../routeHelper').routeTo;
var fetch = require('../someUtil').pluck;
```

**After**
```js
import jamis from 'jquery';
import $ from 'jquery';
import $ from 'jquery';
import 'something';

var foo = bar;

import _ from 'lodash';
import lodash from 'underscore';
import $ from 'jquery';

// some comment
var jamis = 'bar', bar, foo = 'bar';

import {routeTo} from '../routeHelper';
import {pluck as fetch} from '../someUtil';

```

## Getting started
1. `$ npm install -g jscodeshift`
2. pick a transform you want from the `transforms` folder.
3. Save it locally on your machine.
4. Remove the `require('./utils/main')` statement and copy/paste the content of `utils/main.js`. (Lame, I know)
5. Run it via `$ jscodeshift -t yourLocallySavedTransformFile.js fileToTransform.js`.
6. Review changes via `$ git diff`. Keep what you want, throw it out if you don't. Magic!

## Known issues
* Currently loses comments if directly before the `require()` statement.
* require() calls in single var statements get reordered, and moved before the single var after conversion to import.
* can't automagically figure out when you want to use `import * as varName`.

## TODO:
- [ ] Fix single var issues
- [ ] Avoid losing info like comments when transforming require() statements.
