Kantra

Kantra is an experimental CLI that unifies analysis and transformation capabilities of Konveyor.

Installation

Linux

Easiest way to install Kantra is to get it via the container image. To download latest container image, run:

podman pull quay.io/konveyor/kantra:latest && podman run --name kantra-download quay.io/konveyor/kantra:latest 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null && podman cp kantra-download:/usr/local/bin/kantra . && podman rm kantra-download

MacOS

Note: On MacOS, in order to correctly mount volumes, your podman machine must contain options:

podman machine init <vm_name> -v $HOME:$HOME -v /private/tmp:/private/tmp -v /var/folders/:/var/folders/

Ensure that we use the connection to the VM <vm_name> we created earlier by default:

podman system connection default <vm_name>

podman pull quay.io/konveyor/kantra:latest && podman run --name kantra-download quay.io/konveyor/kantra:latest 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null && podman cp kantra-download:/usr/local/bin/darwin-kantra kantra && podman rm kantra-download

This will copy the binary into your current working directory. To make it available system-wide, run:

sudo mv ./kantra /usr/local/bin/

To confirm Kantra is installed, run:

kantra --help

This should display the help message.

Usage

Kantra has two subcommands - analyze and transform:

A cli tool for analysis and transformation of applications

Usage:
  kantra [command]

Available Commands:
  analyze     Analyze application source code
  completion  Generate the autocompletion script for the specified shell
  help        Help about any command
  transform   Transform application source code or windup XML rules

Flags:
  -h, --help            help for kantra
      --log-level int   log level (default 5)

Use "kantra [command] --help" for more information about a command.

Analyze

Analyze allows running source code and binary analysis using analyzer-lsp.

To run analysis on application source code, run:

kantra analyze --input=<path/to/source/code> --output=<path/to/output/dir>

All flags:

Analyze application source code

Usage:
  kantra analyze [flags]

Flags:
      --analyze-known-libraries   analyze known open-source libraries
  -h, --help                      help for analyze
  -i, --input string              path to application source code or a binary
      --list-sources              list rules for available migration sources
      --list-targets              list rules for available migration targets
  -m, --mode string               analysis mode. Must be one of 'full' or 'source-only' (default "full")
  -o, --output string             path to the directory for analysis output
      --rules stringArray         filename or directory containing rule files
      --skip-static-report        do not generate static report
  -s, --source stringArray        source technology to consider for analysis
  -t, --target stringArray        target technology to consider for analysis

Global Flags:
      --log-level int   log level (default 5)

Transform

Transform has two subcommands - openrewrite and rules.

Transform application source code or windup XML rules

Usage:
  kantra transform [flags]
  kantra transform [command]

Available Commands:
  openrewrite Transform application source code using OpenRewrite recipes
  rules       Convert XML rules to YAML

Flags:
  -h, --help   help for transform

Global Flags:
      --log-level int   log level (default 5)

Use "kantra transform [command] --help" for more information about a command.

OpenRewrite

openrewrite subcommand allows running OpenRewrite recipes on source code.

Transform application source code using OpenRewrite recipes

Usage:
  kantra transform openrewrite [flags]

Flags:
  -g, --goal string     target goal (default "dryRun")
  -h, --help            help for openrewrite
  -i, --input string    path to application source code directory
  -l, --list-targets    list all available OpenRewrite recipes
  -t, --target string   target openrewrite recipe to use. Run --list-targets to get a list of packaged recipes.

Global Flags:
      --log-level int   log level (default 5)

To run transform openrewrite on application source code, run:

kantra transform openrewrite --input=<path/to/source/code> --target=<exactly_one_target_from_the_list>

Rules

rules subcommand allows converting Windup XML rules to analyzer-lsp YAML rules.

Convert XML rules to YAML

Usage:
  kantra transform rules [flags]

Flags:
  -h, --help                help for rules
  -i, --input stringArray   path to XML rule file(s) or directory
  -o, --output string       path to output directory

Global Flags:
      --log-level int   log level (default 5)

To run transform rules on application source code, run:

kantra transform rules --input=<path/to/xmlrules> --output=<path/to/output/dir>
