# cocotb2-migrator

A comprehensive tool for migrating cocotb 1.x testbenches to cocotb 2.x with async/await syntax and modern Python practices.

## Overview

cocotb2-migrator automates the migration of cocotb testbenches from version 1.x to 2.x by applying a series of code transformations. The tool handles the most common migration patterns including coroutine decorators, fork operations, handle access patterns, binary value usage, deprecated imports, and many other cocotb-specific transformations.

## Features

- **Coroutine to Async/Await**: Converts `@cocotb.coroutine` decorated functions to `async def`
- **Fork to Start Soon**: Transforms `cocotb.fork()` calls to `cocotb.start_soon()`
- **Handle Access Modernization**: Updates deprecated handle value access patterns
- **Binary Value Updates**: Migrates `BinaryValue` to `LogicArray` with appropriate method calls
- **Clock Transformations**: Updates Clock API usage and removes deprecated parameters
- **Environment Variables**: Updates deprecated environment variable names to cocotb 2.x conventions
- **Join Operations**: Simplifies Join operations for direct awaiting
- **LogicArray Modernization**: Updates LogicArray API usage and imports
- **Task Management**: Updates Task API methods and imports
- **Import Cleanup**: Removes or updates deprecated import statements
- **Comprehensive Reporting**: Generates detailed migration reports in JSON or console format
- **In-place Transformation**: Safely updates files with syntax highlighting and diff display

## Installation

### From PyPI (Recommended)

```bash
pip install cocotb2-migrator
```

### From Source

```bash
git clone https://github.com/aayush598/cocotb2-migrator.git
cd cocotb2-migrator
pip install -e .
```

## Usage

### Command Line Interface

```bash
# Basic usage - migrate all Python files in a directory
cocotb2-migrator /path/to/your/cocotb/project

# Generate a migration report
cocotb2-migrator /path/to/project --report migration_report.json

# Example with real path
cocotb2-migrator ./testbenches --report ./reports/migration.json
```

### Python API

```python
from cocotb2_migrator.main import main
from cocotb2_migrator.migrator import migrate_directory
from cocotb2_migrator.report import MigrationReport

# Using the API directly
report = MigrationReport()
migrate_directory('/path/to/project', report)
report.print()  # Display in console
report.save('migration_report.json')  # Save to file
```

## Migration Transformations

### 1. Coroutine to Async/Await

Converts legacy coroutine syntax to modern async/await:

**Before:**
```python
@cocotb.coroutine
def my_test_function(dut):
    yield Timer(10)
    yield RisingEdge(dut.clk)
```

**After:**
```python
async def my_test_function(dut):
    await Timer(10)
    await RisingEdge(dut.clk)
```

### 2. Fork to Start Soon

Updates concurrent execution syntax:

**Before:**
```python
handle = cocotb.fork(my_background_task())
```

**After:**
```python
handle = cocotb.start_soon(my_background_task())
```

### 3. Handle Value Access

Modernizes signal value access patterns:

**Before:**
```python
val = dut.signal.value.get_value()
integer_val = dut.signal.value.integer
binary_str = dut.signal.value.binstr
raw_val = dut.signal.value.raw_value
```

**After:**
```python
val = dut.signal.value
integer_val = int(dut.signal.value)
binary_str = format(dut.signal.value, 'b')
raw_val = dut.signal.value
```

### 4. Binary Value Updates

Transforms `BinaryValue` usage to `LogicArray` with appropriate constructor methods:

**Before:**
```python
# Basic string conversion
val = BinaryValue('1010')

# Integer with bit width
val = BinaryValue(42, 8)

# Signed representation
val = BinaryValue(42, 8, binaryRepresentation=BinaryRepresentation.SIGNED)

# Bytes with endianness
val = BinaryValue(b"\xAA", bigEndian=True)
val = BinaryValue(b"\xBB", bigEndian=False)

# String treated as bytes with endianness
val = BinaryValue('1010', bigEndian=True)

# Property access
x = val.integer
y = val.signed_integer
z = val.binstr
w = val.buff
```

**After:**
```python
# Basic string conversion
val = LogicArray('1010')

# Integer with bit width
val = LogicArray.from_unsigned(42, 8)

# Signed representation
val = LogicArray.from_signed(42, 8)

# Bytes with endianness
val = LogicArray.from_bytes(b"\xAA", byteorder="big")
val = LogicArray.from_bytes(b"\xBB", byteorder="little")

# String treated as bytes with endianness
val = LogicArray.from_bytes('1010', byteorder="big")

# Property access
x = val.to_unsigned()
y = val.to_signed()
z = str(val)
w = val.to_bytes(byteorder="big")
```

**Import transformations:**
```python
# Before
from cocotb.binary import BinaryValue

# After
from cocotb.types import LogicArray
```

**Module path transformations:**
```python
# Before
val = cocotb.binary.BinaryValue('1010')
val = cocotb.BinaryValue('1010')

# After
val = cocotb.types.LogicArray('1010')
val = LogicArray('1010')  # If LogicArray is imported
```

**Special cases handled:**
- **SIGNED_MAGNITUDE representation**: Creates a basic LogicArray with warning comment (no direct equivalent in LogicArray)
- **Complex constructor patterns**: Automatically determines the appropriate `from_*` method based on argument types
- **Endianness handling**: Converts `bigEndian=True/False` to `byteorder="big"/"little"`

### 5. Clock API Updates

Modernizes Clock usage and removes deprecated parameters:

**Before:**
```python
clock = Clock(dut.clk, 10, units="ns")
cocotb.start_soon(clock.start())
clk.start(cycles=100)
```

**After:**
```python
clock = Clock(dut.clk, 10, unit="ns")
clock.start()
clk.start()
```

### 6. Environment Variables

Updates deprecated environment variable names:

**Before:**
```python
module = os.environ["MODULE"]
toplevel = os.environ["TOPLEVEL"]
testcase = os.getenv("TESTCASE")
```

**After:**
```python
module = os.environ["COCOTB_TEST_MODULES"]
toplevel = os.environ["COCOTB_TOPLEVEL"]
testcase = os.getenv("COCOTB_TESTCASE")
```

### 7. Join Operations

Simplifies Join operations for direct awaiting:

**Before:**
```python
from cocotb.triggers import Join
await Join(task)
await task.join()
```

**After:**
```python
# Join import removed
await task
await task
```

### 8. LogicArray Modernization

Updates LogicArray API usage:

**Before:**
```python
arr = LogicArray(42)
val = arr.integer
signed_val = arr.signed_integer
binary_str = arr.binstr
bytes_val = arr.buff
```

**After:**
```python
arr = LogicArray.from_unsigned(42)
val = arr.to_unsigned()
signed_val = arr.to_signed()
binary_str = str(arr)
bytes_val = arr.to_bytes()
```

### 9. Task Management

Updates Task API methods:

**Before:**
```python
task.kill()
has_started = task.has_started()
raise TestSuccess()
```

**After:**
```python
task.cancel()
# task.has_started() removed - manual intervention needed
cocotb.pass_test()
```

### 10. Deprecated Imports

Removes or updates deprecated import statements:

**Before:**
```python
from cocotb.decorators import coroutine
from cocotb.result import TestFailure
from cocotb.regression import TestFactory
```

**After:**
```python
from cocotb import coroutine
from cocotb import TestFailure
# cocotb.regression import removed (no longer needed)
```

## Architecture

### Core Components

#### 1. Parser (`parser.py`)
- **TransformerPipeline**: Orchestrates the application of multiple transformers
- **File Operations**: Handles reading, writing, and backup of source files
- **Syntax Highlighting**: Provides rich console output with code highlighting

#### 2. Transformers (`transformers/`)
All transformers inherit from `BaseCocotbTransformer` and implement specific migration patterns:

- **`CoroutineToAsyncTransformer`**: Handles `@cocotb.coroutine` → `async def`
- **`ForkTransformer`**: Converts `cocotb.fork()` → `cocotb.start_soon()`
- **`HandleTransformer`**: Updates signal value access patterns
- **`BinaryValueTransformer`**: Migrates `BinaryValue` to `LogicArray` with appropriate methods
- **`ClockTransformer`**: Updates Clock API usage and parameters
- **`EnvironmentTransformer`**: Updates environment variable names
- **`JoinTransformer`**: Simplifies Join operations
- **`LogicArrayTransformer`**: Modernizes LogicArray API
- **`TaskTransformer`**: Updates Task management methods
- **`DeprecatedImportsTransformer`**: Cleans up deprecated imports

#### 3. Migration Engine (`migrator.py`)
- **File Discovery**: Recursively finds Python files in target directories
- **Transformation Application**: Applies all transformers to discovered files
- **Progress Tracking**: Monitors and reports transformation progress

#### 4. Reporting (`report.py`)
- **Console Output**: Rich table format with color-coded results
- **JSON Export**: Structured data for integration with other tools
- **Statistics**: Comprehensive migration statistics and summaries

### Technical Details

#### LibCST Integration
The tool uses LibCST (Concrete Syntax Tree) for parsing and transforming Python code, ensuring:
- **Preservation of Formatting**: Comments, whitespace, and code style are maintained
- **Accurate Transformations**: Syntactically correct transformations
- **Error Handling**: Robust parsing with detailed error reporting

#### Transformer Pipeline
```python
ALL_TRANSFORMERS = [
    CoroutineToAsyncTransformer,
    ForkTransformer,
    BinaryValueTransformer,
    ClockTransformer,
    EnvironmentTransformer,
    JoinTransformer,
    LogicArrayTransformer,
    TaskTransformer,
    HandleTransformer,
    DeprecatedImportsTransformer,
]
```

Transformers are applied in sequence, with each transformer:
1. Parsing the current AST state
2. Applying its specific transformations
3. Returning the modified AST
4. Tracking whether modifications were made

## Requirements

- **Python**: 3.8 or higher
- **Dependencies**:
  - `libcst >= 1.0.1`: For parsing and transforming Python code
  - `click`: Command-line interface framework
  - `termcolor`: Terminal color output
  - `rich`: Enhanced console output with syntax highlighting

### Adding New Transformers

1. Create a new transformer class inheriting from `BaseCocotbTransformer`:

```python
from cocotb2_migrator.transformers.base import BaseCocotbTransformer
import libcst as cst

class MyCustomTransformer(BaseCocotbTransformer):
    name = "MyCustomTransformer"
    
    def leave_FunctionDef(self, original_node: cst.FunctionDef, updated_node: cst.FunctionDef) -> cst.FunctionDef:
        # Your transformation logic here
        if self.should_transform(original_node):
            self.mark_modified()
            return self.transform_node(updated_node)
        return updated_node
```

2. Add the transformer to `ALL_TRANSFORMERS` in `migrator.py`:

```python
ALL_TRANSFORMERS = [
    CoroutineToAsyncTransformer,
    ForkTransformer,
    BinaryValueTransformer,
    ClockTransformer,
    EnvironmentTransformer,
    JoinTransformer,
    LogicArrayTransformer,
    TaskTransformer,
    HandleTransformer,
    DeprecatedImportsTransformer,
    MyCustomTransformer,  # Add your transformer here
]
```

### Testing

The project includes example files for testing transformations:

- `examples/legacy_tb.py`: Legacy cocotb 1.x testbench
- `examples/test_example.py`: Comprehensive test cases for all transformers

Run migrations on test files:

```bash
python -m cocotb2_migrator examples/ --report test_report.json
```

## Migration Notes

### Manual Interventions Required

Some transformations require manual intervention after running the migrator:

1. **Clock.frequency**: This attribute was removed in cocotb 2.x with no direct replacement
2. **Task.has_started()**: This method was removed and needs manual handling
3. **SIGNED_MAGNITUDE representation**: Has no direct LogicArray equivalent - creates basic LogicArray with warning
4. **Complex environment variable usage**: Some complex patterns may need manual review
5. **Custom coroutine patterns**: Advanced coroutine usage may need manual adjustment

### Best Practices

1. **Backup your code**: Always backup your codebase before running the migrator
2. **Run tests**: Execute your test suite after migration to ensure functionality
3. **Review changes**: Manually review the generated changes, especially for complex patterns
4. **Incremental migration**: Consider migrating smaller sections first to validate the process
