I use mix phoenix.new paper to create a new project paper.
So all the stuff is called Paper or :paper.
However, I have to define a model called paper. So I have something like defmodule Paper.Paper do.
When I have multiple aliaes, I need to move Paper.paper to the last.
I know I made a “stupid” codename that may interfere with the model name.
So how can I modify all the Paper. stuff and :paper stuff eaisly? Is there a Phoenix mix command to do that?
Thanks!

I’ve been using this script for the two or three times I had to rename a phoenix project: rename a phoenix project · GitHub
requires
ackto be installed, but you could certainly swap that out for grep.Cheers,

• Works on MacOS, not tested elsewhere.
• Needs:
git,xargsandsed.From the root folder of the project:
git grep -l 'old_name' | xargs sed -i '' -e 's/old_name/new_name/g'git grep -l 'OldName' | xargs sed -i '' -e 's/OldName/NewName/g'mv ./lib/old_name ./lib/new_namemv ./lib/old_name.ex ./lib/new_name.exIf you have a similar folder structure in the tests folder, you probably also need:
mv ./test/old_name ./test/new_namebenwilson512
There is not a command for renaming a project. I have however had to do so a couple times in the past, and in general global find and replace works really rather well. Just also move any directories named
paperand you’re done.Qqwy
A global find+replace works a lot better in Elixir than in most OOP-languages, because you always refer to a certain piece of code the same way:
ModuleName.function_name. And structs use the ModuleName as well.In OOP-languages, you can only hope that some object isn’t referred to under a different name.

Oh! My bad, I didn’t look closely at what you did.
This is definitly a step up.
