[META] Rename Views properties to core standards

Created on 28 July 2013, over 11 years ago
Updated 23 March 2023, over 1 year ago

Postponed until 8.1.x is open for development.

Similar to #1856630: [Change notice] [META] Rename Views methods to core standards β†’

Problem/Motivation

  • Currently, many Views property names use underscores rather than camelCase.

Beta phase evaluation

<!--Uncomment the relevant rows for the issue. -->

Thus is postponed to 8.1.x. similar to #1518116-86: [meta] Make Core pass Coder Review β†’

Proposed resolution

  • Do not change class properties that would make changes in .yml files.
  • Rename properties according to the new standard. "class properties should use lowerCamel naming" https://drupal.org/node/608152#naming
  • Convert property names exactly from underscore_separated to camelCase. So,
    foo_the_bar
    becomes
    fooTheBar.
  • Change public to protected (depending whether the variable is used outside of the class).
  • Replace var with public/protected, see previous point.
  • Update the docblock for the properties to agree with https://drupal.org/node/1354#var

Before replacing any property names, we must check that the new name is not already in use.

If we change a public property name of a class, we need to change all uses of that property in other files as part of the issue.
