SalesforceDX : Explaining Scratch Org Definition File

by | Nov 30, 2018 | , , , | 0

Scratch Org definition file is getting used to create the shape of your scratch org. I would say it is the blueprint of your scratch org. You can use this definition file to create multiple scratch org from your repository.Scratch org definitions come from JSON text files that are stored in your project’s repository and directory structure. When an SFDX project is first created, it comes with a config/project-scratch-def.json file that defines an extremely basic org “shape” for an empty scratch org.That default scratch org likely looks nothing like your production org. You can use it for developing functionality that isn’t dependent on your org’s settings, or you can customize it using the settings that are available as part of the configuration file, or you can script your process to perform Metadata API deploys or other API actions to control settings that DX does not support yet.Ideally, the combination of your DX source code (including all your programmatic and declarative customization) with your scratch org definition gets you close enough to Prod instance.This definition file contains three main important information about your scratch org.Which Edition? As of Winter’19, it supports Developer, Enterprise, Group or ProfessionalAdd-on features: Functionalities you want to include while creating the scratch org like communities, StateAndCountryPicklist, LiveAgent etc.Settings: Org and Feature settings used to configure Salesforce products, such as nameSettings, ideaSettings, caseSettings, omniChannelSettings.Let’s dig into a Scratch Org definition...

Using SalesforceDx deploy metadata in Sandboxes or Non-Scratch Salesforce Orgs

by | Oct 21, 2018 | , , , , , , | 0

With the introduction of Salesforce DX, it creates confusion how can I work with old Salesforce(Non Salesforce DX) projects. In this post, I tried to explain how you can still work with your existing non salesforce dx project code, but get all the benefits of Salesforce DX.First let’s understand the biggest difference between Salesforce DX and Non Salesforce DX which is that in Salesforce DX we don’t need any package.xml and all the changes will be automatically detected. Basically in Salesforce DX, the project format is different than traditional Non Salesforce DX project format.In today’s blog post, I will discuss how Salesforce DX can be used without enabling Developer Hub with normal Salesforce instance.I will be using one my developer org(Non Salesforce DX) for this one.The first command I will be issuing here is to authenticate my developer org and the command is:sfdx force:auth:web:login -a SudiptaPersonal Above command will open the browser where I will be providing my org’s credential and thus authenticating my personal org. With -a, I am here giving alias “SudiptaPersonal” to my developer org. Advantage of setting alias is that going forward, I will be using alias to issue any commands against this org instead of typing username and password every time.Now I will try to retrieve metadata using package.xml. For that, I stored the package.xml in src folder and now with the below command...

Getting Started with Salesforce DX

by | Oct 1, 2018 | , , , | 3

What is Salesforce DX?Salesforce DX is a way to shift your development lifecycle and to manage your source of truth. But don’t consider Salesforce DX is going to do any magic, as a developer/release manager/lead you need to come up with your own strategy to manage your releases, other challenges like code conflict, urgent fix etc.Why we need Salesforce DX?I think the best way to answer this is with some real time scenarios.Recently I was working with one of my customer who was having multiple sandboxes like DEV, SIT, QAT, UAT. A typical scenario. Now every time there was any kind of production issues, development team tried to find out the root cause and also tried to find out if the issue was due to some of the recent releases. But since all sandboxes were having the same code as Production, there was no way to find out previous code base. So in this situation normally developer request for a new sandbox with production code and fix the issue. This type of development is known as “Org Based Development”.But consider if the code was present in some source control repository then developer can easily get the previous code base, compare code between recent releases (basically comparing between master and branches). But does that really solve our problem? Somehow, but not fully. So basically we need to create an org...

🚀 Get ready for the exciting new feature coming with Salesforce's Winter '24 release! In this video, I will dive deep into how this update is set to revolutionize the way you sort list elements within your Salesforce code. 📑 With the Winter '24 release, the List class receives a significant upgrade by introducing support for the all-new Comparator interface. This powerful enhancement empowers developers to implement a wide range of sorting orders effortlessly using the List.sort() method with a Comparator parameter. 💡 I will walk you through the ins and outs of using this feature, demonstrating its incredible versatility and practicality. Whether you need to sort lists of custom objects or standard data types, the Comparator interface offers a flexible solution for every sorting scenario. 🌐 But that's not all! For those situations where you require locale-sensitive comparisons and sorting, we'll also show you how to utilize the getInstance method within the newly introduced Collator class. We'll explain why this feature is essential when dealing with internationalization and how it can enhance your applications' user experience. 🚫 However, keep in mind that locale-sensitive sorting can yield different results based on the user executing the code. Therefore, we'll discuss best practices and situations to avoid, such as using it in triggers or code where a specific sort order is expected.
