## Using the template
## Vision

This repository provides a template for creating a plugin for the Salesforce CLI. To convert this template to a working plugin:
Atlas is a one-stop shop documentation toolkit for your Salesforce project. It uses all the information stored in your Salesforce metadata files and outputs all that information in a structured, user-readable form, in multiple formats.

1. Please get in touch with the Platform CLI team. We want to help you develop your plugin.
2. Generate your plugin:
## How to install

```bash
sf plugins install dev
sf dev generate plugin

git init -b main
git add . && git commit -m "chore: initial commit"
```

3. Create your plugin's repo in the salesforcecli github org
4. When you're ready, replace the contents of this README with the information you want.

## Learn about `sf` plugins

Salesforce CLI plugins are based on the [oclif plugin framework](<(https://oclif.io/docs/introduction.html)>). Read the [plugin developer guide](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.sfdx_cli_plugins.meta/sfdx_cli_plugins/cli_plugins_architecture_sf_cli.htm) to learn about Salesforce CLI plugin development.

This repository contains a lot of additional scripts and tools to help with general Salesforce node development and enforce coding standards. You should familiarize yourself with some of the [node developer packages](#tooling) used by Salesforce.

Additionally, there are some additional tests that the Salesforce CLI will enforce if this plugin is ever bundled with the CLI. These test are included by default under the `posttest` script and it is required to keep these tests active in your plugin if you plan to have it bundled.

### Tooling
1. [Install Node in your system.](https://nodejs.org/en) In case of doubt, go with the LTS installation.

- [@salesforce/core](https://github.com/forcedotcom/sfdx-core)
- [@salesforce/kit](https://github.com/forcedotcom/kit)
- [@salesforce/sf-plugins-core](https://github.com/salesforcecli/sf-plugins-core)
- [@salesforce/ts-types](https://github.com/forcedotcom/ts-types)
- [@salesforce/ts-sinon](https://github.com/forcedotcom/ts-sinon)
- [@salesforce/dev-config](https://github.com/forcedotcom/dev-config)
- [@salesforce/dev-scripts](https://github.com/forcedotcom/dev-scripts)

### Hooks

For cross clouds commands, e.g. `sf env list`, we utilize [oclif hooks](https://oclif.io/docs/hooks) to get the relevant information from installed plugins.

This plugin includes sample hooks in the [src/hooks directory](src/hooks). You'll just need to add the appropriate logic. You can also delete any of the hooks if they aren't required for your plugin.

# Everything past here is only a suggestion as to what should be in your specific plugin's description

This plugin is bundled with the [Salesforce CLI](https://developer.salesforce.com/tools/sfdxcli). For more information on the CLI, read the [getting started guide](https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.sfdx_setup.meta/sfdx_setup/sfdx_setup_intro.htm).

We always recommend using the latest version of these commands bundled with the CLI, however, you can install a specific version or tag if needed.

## Install

```bash
sf plugins install [email protected]
```
1. Install the Salesforce CLI using `npm`:

3. Fork this repository.
4. [Build the plugin locally](#build)
5. Create a _topic_ branch in your fork. Note, this step is recommended but technically not required if contributing using a fork.
6. Edit the code in your fork.
7. Write appropriate tests for your changes. Try to achieve at least 95% code coverage on any new code. No pull request will be accepted without unit tests.
8. Sign CLA (see [CLA](#cla) below).
9. Send us a pull request when you are done. We'll review your code, suggest any needed changes, and merge it in.

External contributors will be required to sign a Contributor's License
Agreement. You can do so by going to https://cla.salesforce.com/sign-cla.

### Build
```bash
npm install --global @salesforce/cli
```

To build the plugin locally, make sure to have yarn installed and run the following commands:
1. Install Atlas as a Salesforce CLI plugin:

```bash
# Clone the repository
git clone [email protected]:salesforcecli/plugin-documentation
```bash
sf plugins install plugin-atlas
```

# Install the dependencies and compile
yarn && yarn build
```
## How to update

To use your plugin, run using the local `./bin/dev` or `./bin/dev.cmd` file.
1. Update the Salesforce CLI. It is the same command as installing it from scratch:

```bash
# Run using local run file.
./bin/dev hello world
```
```bash
npm install --global @salesforce/cli
```

There should be no differences when running via the Salesforce CLI or using the local run file. However, it can be useful to link the plugin to do some additional testing or run your commands from anywhere on your machine.
1. Update all the Salesforce CLI plugins:

```bash
# Link your plugin to the sf cli
sf plugins link .
# To verify
sf plugins
```
```bash
sf plugins update
```

## Commands
If the update fails, you can uninstall the plugin with `sf plugins uninstall plugin-atlas` and then reinstall it.
