OpenRewrite: Can we have recipe to change Java or Spring library Import

Question

Can we change import in java class, ex:
import org.springframework.security.oauth2.client.OAuth2RestTemplate;
to
import org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate;

We have one ChangePackage recipe but it is only working with user predefine packages and ChangeText recipe is not sufficient to make all change related to any import change.

Do we have any dedicated recipe to change import statements ?

You'll want to use the Change Type recipe for such a change

type: specs.openrewrite.org/v1beta/recipe
name: com.yourorg.ChangeTypeExample
displayName: Change type example
recipeList:
  - org.openrewrite.java.ChangeType:
      oldFullyQualifiedTypeName: org.springframework.security.oauth2.client.OAuth2RestTemplate
      newFullyQualifiedTypeName: org.springframework.web.client.RestTemplate
