### Custom transformers
|
||||
|
||||
See [./transformers/README.md](./transformers/README.md) for details on using custom transformers for `dry-run` and `migrate` commands.
|
||||
|
||||
Custom transformers can be used to customize the behavior of Actions Importer to meet your specific use-case. Custom transformers can be used to:
|
||||
|
||||
- Convert items that are not automatically converted.
|
||||
- Convert items that were automatically converted using different actions.
|
||||
- Convert environment variable values differently.
|
||||
- Convert references to runners to use a different runner name in Actions.
|
||||
|
||||
Custom transformers must be defined in a file with the `.rb` file extension within a directory named `transformers` in your IssueOps repository. Alternatively, you can provide specific custom transformers to be used by appending the `--custom-transformers` option in the issue comment used to trigger Actions Importer. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
/migrate ... --custom-transformers my-transformers.rb
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
