## Renderer to Renderer2 migration
The `Renderer` class has been marked as deprecated since Angular version 4 and is removed in Angular v9.
This section provides guidance on migrating from this deprecated API to the newer `Renderer2` API and what it means for your app.
You can use the CLI `ng update` command or the [update tool](https://update.angular.io/) to perform the migration.
### Why should I migrate to Renderer2?
The deprecated `Renderer` class has been removed in version 9 of Angular, so it's necessary to migrate to a supported API. Using `Renderer2` is the recommended strategy because it supports a similar set of functionality to `Renderer`. The API surface is quite large (with 19 methods), but the schematic should simplify this process for your applications.
**Library authors** should definitely use this migration to move away from the `Renderer`. Otherwise, the libraries won't work with applications built with version 9.
### Is there action required on my end?
No. The `ng update` schematic should handle most cases with the exception of `Renderer.animate()` and `Renderer.setDebugInfo()`, which are not supported.
### What are the `__ngRendererX` methods? Why are they necessary?
Some methods either don't have exact equivalents in `Renderer2`, or they correspond to more than one expression. For example, both renderers have a `createElement()` method, but they're not equal because a call such as `renderer.createElement(parentNode, namespaceAndName)` in the `Renderer` corresponds to the following block of code in `Renderer2`:
```ts
const [namespace, name] = splitNamespace(namespaceAndName);
const el = renderer.createElement(name, namespace);
if (parentNode) {
renderer.appendChild(parentNode, el);
}
return el;
```
Migration has to guarantee that the return values of functions and types of variables stay the same. To handle the majority of cases safely, the schematic declares helper functions at the bottom of the user's file. These helpers encapsulate your own logic and keep the replacements inside your code down to a single function call. Here's an example of how the `createElement()` migration looks:
**Before:**
```ts
public createAndAppendElement() {
const el = this.renderer.createElement('span');
el.textContent = 'hello world';
return el;
}
```
**After:**
<code-example>
public createAndAppendElement() {
const el = __ngRendererCreateElement(this.renderer, this.element, 'span');
el.textContent = 'hello world';
return el;
}
// Generated code at the bottom of the file
__ngRendererCreateElement(renderer: any, parentNode: any, nameAndNamespace: any) {
const [namespace, name] = __ngRendererSplitNamespace(namespaceAndName);
const el = renderer.createElement(name, namespace);
if (parentNode) {
renderer.appendChild(parentNode, el);
}
return el;
}
__ngRendererSplitNamespace(nameAndNamespace: any) {
// returns the split name and namespace
}
</code-example>
When implementing these helper functions, the schematic ensures that they're only declared once per file and that their names are unique enough that there's a small chance of colliding with pre-existing functions in your code. The schematic also keeps their parameter types as `any` so that it doesn't have to insert extra logic that ensures that their values have the correct type.

# `Renderer` to `Renderer2` migration
## Migration Overview
