- 5. All Metadata changes are code changes DX is for everyone + =
- 6. Why Salesforce DX ?
- 7. Most of the Salesforce Development / Deployments falls into 3 categories Salesforce Environment Landscape Simple !! Update Metadata Directly in production Single Sandbox to Production via Changesets It’s Complicated !!
- 8. ALM + VCS + IDE + CLI + CI / CD ALM - Atlassian Jira, Microsoft VSTS, HP ALM, etc.. VCS - Github, VSTS, Bitbucket, etc.. IDE - VSCode, Eclipse IDE 2, TWS, Illuminated Cloud, etc.. CI / CD - Jenkins, Travis, etc.. What is Salesforce DX (Developer eXperience)
- 9. Source Control Source of Truth for all of your metadata Versioning / Tracking Changes / Separate Branches for Features Merging Changes / Resolving Conflicts Automating deployments from Source Control
- 10. CLI • Core building block of DX • Makes use of the APIs (Tooling / Metadata / Soap / Rest..) • Gives us commands that can be used in scripting • Orchestrates communication between CLI and Scratch orgs (thru API)
- 11. Scratch Orgs • Environments that are easy to create, configure and dispose • No specific user credentials required to access • Doesn’t bring across the metadata / data from Production • We can make the scratch orgs look like any of the connected orgs by linking a source shape • Shapes -> Org Shape that can be used in config files to create new scratch orgs • Export and Import of Shapes (Closed pilot)
- 12. Dev Hub • Centralized place to manage scratch orgs • Orchestrates communication between CLI and Scratch orgs (handled thru API)
- 14. Scratch Orgs vs Sandboxes
- 15. Scratch Orgs vs Sandboxes
- 16. How to get started with DX Install SFDX CLI / IDE Plugins Setup Dev Hub (DX Trail Org or Enable in Production) Connect CLI to Dev Hub and Source Control Create Scratch Org Sync Metadata between Scratch Org & Source Control
- 17. • This is just the beginning • Roadmap (#safeharbor) UI for CLI Language Services, Developer & Debugging services (profiler, offline / interactive debugging) Improvements to Sandboxes and Scratch Orgs with respect to source driven development (e.g Sandbox to Sandbox cloning) MOAR Automation around development / testing / deployment / release management Change sets (really) !!! Pipelines (think of Heroku / Bitbucket pipelines) IDE (Eclipse to VSCode, DevConsole to WebEditor) What’s next with Salesforce DX
