NoFlo API Updater

This command-line tool automates some tasks on updating legacy NoFlo libraries with the latest APIs.

Features

Currently this tool supports:

• Semi-automatic update of the old CoffeeScript components to the new Ports API introduced in NoFlo 0.5.

Installation

If you don't have CoffeeScript installed, then first install the latest CoffeeScript:

# npm install -g coffee-script

Then install the updater tool

# npm install -g noflo-api-updater

Usage

Note: the tool assumes that components are written in CoffeeScript indented correctly with 2 spaces. Tab or 4-space indentation, or JavaScript components are not supported at this time.

Updating a single *.coffee file:

$ noflo-api-updater components/MyComponent.coffee

Updating all components in the folder:

$ noflo-api-updater components

There is a --pretend option that prints the result on screen rather than overwriting original files:

$ noflo-api-updater --pretend components/MyComponent.coffee
