TestingComponentDeletion

Deploy metadata

This repository pretends to show a small dependency tree that can be easily deployed and removed from your developer org.

You can deploy this repository from vscode using the Salesforce extensions for Salesforce DX. Or you can add executable permissions to the shell script found at ./scripts/sh/deploy.sh.

chmod +x ./scripts/sh/deploy.sh

Notice that you need a correctly set up organization in your project scope, preferably a developer org. That way, sfdx can determine by itself which user you are using to perform the deployment. Then run the following script:

./scripts/sh/deploy.sh

Removing components

To delete deprecated components from your organization, execute the following command:

sfdx force:mdapi:deploy --deploydir deprecationManifests \
--testlevel RunSpecifiedTests \
--runtests MOCKED -w 3

Considering that ExtraObject__c is a component that will remain, confirm that this is the case once you run the command. Then you can delete it manually or adding the type member to the file destructiveChanges.xml and executing the previous command again.

Considerations

All the commands listed here were executed with sfdx-cli version sfdx-cli/7.99.0 wsl-x64 node-v12.22. In order to run these commands in other systems like Powershell, you may need to perform extra configurations.
