gradle-lint-plugin VS MCPConfig

A little more than two years ago, in October 2019, I began work on my first significant open source project, the Dependency Analysis Gradle Plugin. I had just left a job where I had done relatively little coding, was taking a month off, and wanted to get back into a building mode and learn some new things. I decided to explore the domain of unused-dependency detection. The nearest competitor I was aware of was the Gradle Lint Plugin from the Netflix Nebula collection. However, as that plugin has never supported Android projects, that meant I had an exploitable niche—if only I could exploit it.

Semgrep’s focus is on static analysis/search and is based on rules that developers need to write in a new DSL. Autofix is experimental and is one pattern replaced with another. https://semgrep.dev/docs/experiments/overview/

OpenRewrite originated to do transformations of code, specifically to remove a Netflix proprietary logging library and replace it with in SLF4J. The predecessor of OpenRewrite was Gradle Lint (https://github.com/nebula-plugins/gradle-lint-plugin), commonly used to update Gradle build configuration. OpenRewrite added search after transformation and search can be very flexible (search for all usages of a particular package/any method, not just a specific method invocation). Instead of being DSL based, OpenRewrite provides a set of building blocks called recipes that can be combined together to create more powerful recipes. When building blocks are not enough, you can write a custom recipe in the same language as what you are managing. Java for Java and TypeScript for JavaScript/TypeScript (coming soon).

For example, you can see JUnit 4 to 5 migration recipe contains a set of pre-built and custom recipes.

forge takes the jar as released by mojang, does a couple preprocessing tasks (renaming everything away from meaningless proguard names, merging the client and server .jars, etc), then decompiles it with forgeflower, applies a large number of source-level diffs to the decompiler output to account for deficiencies in the decompiler that cause the output to be mostly correct but not exactly recompilable, applies another set of source-level diffs to produce a jar augmented with the fun stuff that the forge project wants, recompiles this source, then writes the forge modloader against that. (actual mods are written against the modloader and patched minecraft as well, modders cannot write their own source patches, only forge itself has source patches.)
