Usage
This recipe has required configuration parameters. Recipes with required configuration parameters cannot be activated directly. To activate this recipe you must create a new recipe which fills in the required parameters. In your rewrite.yml create a new recipe with a unique name. For example: com.yourorg.ChangeMethodNameExample. Here's how you can define and customize such a recipe within your rewrite.yml:
rewrite.yml
---
type: specs.openrewrite.org/v1beta/recipe
name: com.yourorg.ChangeMethodNameExample
displayName: Change method name example
recipeList:
  - org.openrewrite.java.ChangeMethodName:
      methodPattern: org.mockito.Matchers anyVararg()
      newMethodName: any
      matchOverrides: null
      ignoreDefinition: null
Now that com.yourorg.ChangeMethodNameExample has been defined activate it in your build file:
Gradle
Maven
build.gradle
plugins {
    id("org.openrewrite.rewrite") version("5.40.4")
}
​
rewrite {
    activeRecipe("com.yourorg.ChangeMethodNameExample")
}
​
repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}
pom.xml

    <plugins>

        <version>4.45.0</version>
        <configuration>
          <activeRecipes>

          </activeRecipes>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>
</project>
