Find source files with ParseExceptionResult markers

org.openrewrite.FindParseFailures

This recipe explores parse failures after an LST is produced for classifying the types of failures that can occur and prioritizing fixes according to the most common problems.

Recipe source

GitHub, Issue Tracker, Maven Central

Options

Type	Name	Description	Example
Integer	maxSnippetLength	Optional. When the failure occurs on a granular tree element, its source code will be included as a column in the data table up to this maximum snippet length.
String	parserType	Optional. Only display failures from parsers with this simple name.	YamlParser
String	stackTrace	Optional. Only mark stack traces with a message containing this text.	RuntimeException

Usage

This recipe has no required configuration parameters and comes from a rewrite core library. It can be activated directly without adding any dependencies.

Gradle

1. Add the following to your build.gradle file:

build.gradle

plugins {
    id("org.openrewrite.rewrite") version("6.28.3")
}

rewrite {
    activeRecipe("org.openrewrite.FindParseFailures")
    setExportDatatables(true)
}

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

2. Run gradle rewriteRun to run the recipe.

Gradle init script

1. Create a file named init.gradle in the root of your project.

init.gradle

initscript {
    repositories {
        maven { url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2" }
    }
    dependencies { classpath("org.openrewrite:plugin:latest.release") }
}
rootProject {
    plugins.apply(org.openrewrite.gradle.RewritePlugin)
    dependencies {
        rewrite("org.openrewrite:rewrite-java")
    }
    rewrite {
        activeRecipe("org.openrewrite.FindParseFailures")
        setExportDatatables(true)
    }
    afterEvaluate {
        if (repositories.isEmpty()) {
            repositories {
                mavenCentral()
            }
        }
    }
}

2. Run the recipe.

shell

gradle --init-script init.gradle rewriteRun

Maven POM

1. Add the following to your pom.xml file:

pom.xml

<project>
  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.openrewrite.maven</groupId>
        <artifactId>rewrite-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>5.47.0</version>
        <configuration>
          <exportDatatables>true</exportDatatables>
          <activeRecipes>
            <recipe>org.openrewrite.FindParseFailures</recipe>
          </activeRecipes>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
</project>

2. Run mvn rewrite:run to run the recipe.

Data Tables

Parser failures

org.openrewrite.table.ParseFailures

A list of files that failed to parse along with stack traces of their failures.

Column Name	Description
Parser	The parser implementation that failed.
Source path	The file that failed to parse.
Exception type	The class name of the exception that produce the parse failure.
Tree type	The type of the tree element that was being parsed when the failure occurred. This can refer either to the intended target OpenRewrite Tree type or a parser or compiler internal tree type that we couldn't determine how to map.
Snippet	The code snippet that the failure occurred on. Omitted when the parser fails on the whole file.
Stack trace	The stack trace of the failure.

Source files that had results

org.openrewrite.table.SourcesFileResults

Source files that were modified by the recipe run.

Column Name	Description
Source path before the run	The source path of the file before the run. null when a source file was created during the run.
Source path after the run	A recipe may modify the source path. This is the path after the run. null when a source file was deleted during the run.
Parent of the recipe that made changes	In a hierarchical recipe, the parent of the recipe that made a change. Empty if this is the root of a hierarchy or if the recipe is not hierarchical at all.
Recipe that made changes	The specific recipe that made a change.
Estimated time saving	An estimated effort that a developer to fix manually instead of using this recipe, in unit of seconds.
Cycle	The recipe cycle in which the change was made.

Source files that errored on a recipe

org.openrewrite.table.SourcesFileErrors

The details of all errors produced by a recipe run.

Column Name	Description
Source path	The file that failed to parse.
Recipe that made changes	The specific recipe that made a change.
Stack trace	The stack trace of the failure.

Recipe performance

org.openrewrite.table.RecipeRunStats

Statistics used in analyzing the performance of recipes.

Column Name	Description
The recipe	The recipe whose stats are being measured both individually and cumulatively.
Source file count	The number of source files the recipe ran over.
Source file changed count	The number of source files which were changed in the recipe run. Includes files created, deleted, and edited.
Cumulative scanning time	The total time spent across the scanning phase of this recipe.
99th percentile scanning time	99 out of 100 scans completed in this amount of time.
Max scanning time	The max time scanning any one source file.
