Migrate one component at the time with the CLI

[einarpersson]

Hi!

In the migration guide the CLI is recommended for migration of a whole app (or folders) - but if you want to migrate one component at the time you are out of luck if you are not using VSCode. This is something that should be available through the CLI, for all svelte users regardless of their editor preference in my opinion.

npx migrate svelte-5 <component.svelte>

As a workaround, you can migrate the whole project, commit the changes to the file you would like to migrate, then revert the rest.

Makes sense. @benmccann would you mind moving this to the kit repo, as the migration script still lies there?

[benmccann]

#391 allows you to migrate sub-directories

And VS Code lets you migrate individual files

Do either of those address your need? I'm wondering if we should close this issue now

[einarpersson]

migrating sub-directories is a step forward of course.

I'm however using neovim.

I dont need fancy prompts, just a flag :)

but to be honest, since this is just a one-time migration you can close it as far as i'm concerned.

I however do not like when "non-ui" functionality is only available through a vscode extension. the market / power concentration is high enough already in this world! I understand that there are a lot of vscode users but this just becomes a self reinforcing loop

"And VS Code lets you migrate individual files"

how? i can't find this option anywhere

a couple components failed to migrate because they had nested buttons, and i just want to finish the migration

edit: solved my problem by just rerunning the migration script after fixing the buttons. would be nice of the migration guide were more specific about where to find that command though
