yFiles Migration Tool


The source of this tool is available at GitHub.

Use this tool to help you migrate your existing yFiles application a new version.

The migration-tool will work best on strict typescript. For frontend frameworks,
it is best to keep the script-code separate from HTML-templates.
> [!CAUTION]
>In order for the migration tool to work, you to have the version of yFiles for HTML installed into your project that you want to migrate from. That is, when migrating from 2.6 to 3.0, 2.6 needs to be installed.

!Automatic migrations

In general the tool will either perform automatic migration or add a migration
comment that can include helpful information to ease more complex migration
operations.
As shown the automatic migrations range in complexity from simple renames to more complex signature changes.

> [!CAUTION]
> This tool will manipulate the files in place, make sure that you have no uncommitted changes and/or a backup

> [!IMPORTANT]
> This version is exclusively for the migration from 2.6 to 3.0, for earlier version have a look at earlier GitHub releases

Usage

Point the migration-tool to the tsconfig of your project
``
npx @yworks/migrate-yfiles-app@latest --configPath=
`
