Migration tool (preview release) - Amazon SDK for Java 2.x
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Migration tool (preview release)

The Amazon SDK for Java provides a migration tool that helps automate the migration of SDK for Java 1.x code to 2.x. The tool uses OpenRewrite—an open source, source code refactoring tool—to perform the migration.

You can use the tool now as a preview release. The tool supports all SDK service clients except for AmazonS3Client and high-level APIs such as TransferManager and DynamoDBMapper. The tool also has some limitations that are listed at the end of this topic.

Use the migration tool

Migrate a Maven project

Follow the instructions below to migrate your SDK for Java 1.x Maven-based project by using the OpenRewrite Maven plugin tool.

  1. Navigate to your Maven project's root directory

    Open a terminal (command line) window and navigate to the root directory of your Maven-based application.

  2. Run the plugin's rewrite-maven-plugin command

    You can choose from two modes (Maven goals): dryRun and run.

    dryRun mode

    In the dryRun mode, the plugin generates diff logs in the console output and a patch file named rewrite.patch in the target/rewrite folder. This mode allows you to preview the changes that would be made, since no changes are made to source code files.

    The following example show how to invoke the plugin in dryRun mode.

    mvn org.openrewrite.maven:rewrite-maven-plugin:dryRun \ -Drewrite.recipeArtifactCoordinates=software.amazon.awssdk:v2-migration:<sdkversion>*-PREVIEW \ -Drewrite.activeRecipes=software.amazon.awssdk.v2migration.AwsSdkJavaV1ToV2

    *Replace <sdkversion> with a 2.x SDK version. Visit Maven Central to check for the latest version.

    Your console output from the dryRun mode should resemble the following output.

    run mode

    When you run the plugin in run mode, it modifies the source code on disk to apply the changes. Make sure you have a backup of the source code before running the command.

    The following example show how to invoke the plugin in run mode.

    mvn org.openrewrite.maven:rewrite-maven-plugin:run \ -Drewrite.recipeArtifactCoordinates=software.amazon.awssdk:v2-migration:<sdkversion>*-PREVIEW \ -Drewrite.activeRecipes=software.amazon.awssdk.v2migration.AwsSdkJavaV1ToV2

    *Replace <sdkversion> with a 2.x SDK version. Visit Maven Central to check for the latest version.

    After you run the command, compile your application and run tests to verify the changes.

Migrate a Gradle project

Follow the instructions below to migrate your SDK for Java 1.x Grade-based project by using the OpenRewrite Gradle plugin tool.

  1. Navigate to your Maven project's root directory

    Open a terminal (command line) window and navigate to the root directory of your Gradle-based application.

  2. Create a Gradle init script

    Create a init.gradle file with the following content in the directory.

    initscript { repositories { maven { url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2" } } dependencies { classpath("org.openrewrite:plugin:latest.release") } } rootProject { plugins.apply(org.openrewrite.gradle.RewritePlugin) dependencies { rewrite("software.amazon.awssdk:v2-migration:latest.release") } afterEvaluate { if (repositories.isEmpty()) { repositories { mavenCentral() } } } }
  3. Run the rewrite command

    As with the Maven plugin, you can run the Gradle plugin in dryRun or run mode.

    dryRun mode

    The following example show how to invoke the plugin in dryRun mode.

    gradle rewriteDryRun --init-script init.gradle \ -Drewrite.activeRecipes=software.amazon.awssdk.v2migration.AwsSdkJavaV1ToV2

    run mode

    The following example show how to invoke the plugin in run mode.

    gradle rewriteRun --init-script init.gradle \ -Drewrite.activeRecipes=software.amazon.awssdk.v2migration.AwsSdkJavaV1ToV2

Current limitations

The current preview release doesn’t support every feature in the SDK. Support for additional features will be added soon.

The tool does not currently support the following features. The links in the list below, take you to migration information to help you manually migrate the code.
