Autofix

Automatically fix all software bugs.

Examples

Automatically fix bugs in the current directory:

autofix

Preview all the commands this would run, but don't actually do anything:

autofix --dry

Autofix bugs in a GitHub repository, commit fixes into separate branches, and automatically send pull requests (requires gh):

autofix --branches --pull-request

Dependencies

• gh

Command line options

autofix (DIRECTORY|REPOSITORY) [OPTIONS]

• DIRECTORY: Run autofix in a particular directory (defaults to .).
• REPOSITORY: Clone a Git repository, then run autofix in it.

OPTIONS:

• --dry: Simulate without actually running any fix commands
• --branches: Commit fixes of different types into different branches (e.g. autofix-codespell)
• --tiers=0,1,2: Choose which types of bugs should be autofixed (see details about tiers below)
• --verbose: Log additional information to the console (e.g. for troubleshooting autofix bugs)
• --push=REMOTE: Push fixes to a given GitHub remote (e.g. your GitHub username)
• --pull-request: Automatically open pull requests with pushed commits (requires hub, implies --push=origin if unspecified)
• --branch-suffix=SUFFIX: Add a common suffix to generated branch names (i.e. autofix-codespell-SUFFIX)
• --signoff: Use Git's --signoff (or -s) feature when creating commits

Types of bugs that can be fixed

Tier 0 (no rework needed):

• Remove trailing whitespace (uses git, xargs and sed)
• Applies make fmt on the coder/coder codebase.
• Update version of terraform in the coder/coder codebase.
• Update Git submodules

Tier 1 (some rework might be needed):

Tier 2 (experimental, use with caution):

Tier 3 (you probably don't want to run these):

• TODO

Custom fixers

You can also implement your own fixers (similar to the ones found in the ./fixers/ directory) and commit them to your repository under a .autofix/fixers/ directory. Autofix will automatically pick them up; run them on your codebase; and commit new fixes when relevant.
