• DF12APP
  • A reference force.com application showing how the tools can be utilized
• lib
  • Contains the various jar files and Ant XML files that make up the tool
  • Also includes ant-salesforce.jar (v30.0), no need to copy this to your local Ant install!

• Removes Case Escalations and Assignments components
• Does not attempt to remove Standard Applications
• Supports both standard DE orgs (from developer.salesforce.com) and Partner DE orgs
• 100% Ant native, removed requirement for custom Java class, ExecAnon now implemented natively in Ant script
• Removed need for modified ant-salesforce.jar (PurgeOnDelete now supported!)
• Resolved issue with deployment of some layouts (during undeploy phase) such as the Social layout
• Updated to use API v30.0

• Undeploy script update. New component types, deals with fieldsets and related list filters

The DF12APP directory contains an example force.com application.

• /datasets
  • this directory holds some samples of apex scripts used by the "Execute Anonymous" process.
• /build.properties
  • this file is where you will enter your salesforce user name and password
  • include your security token with the password, if your security settings require this
• /build.xml
  • this is a reference example of an ant build file that utilizes the tools, including cleaning an org!
  • If you already have a build script for your project, you can simply include the various xml files to add functionality to your build.
  • Note the four include file statements, these include the four basic ant targets covered in the session

To call the sample build.xml provided, change to the DF12APP directory and run the following command.

ant RunEverything -Dsf.username=yourusername -Dsf.password=yourpasswordyourtoken

Or update the build.properties file with your user name, password and token and just run...

ant RunEverything

NOTE: This sample build script eventualy ends with test failures, this is intentional to demonstrate the RunTests target

If you've included all for of the .xml files from the lib folder (as shown in the example build.xml) then you will have access to the following ant targets:

• undeploy
  • used to remove all metadata from the org.
  • usage: ant undeploy
• deploy
  • used to deploy the application found in the "src" folder along side of the build.xml
  • usage: ant deploy
• ExecAnon
  • can be used to execute anonymous apex from the command line
  • usage: ant "-Dwhat=Account a = new Account();a.Name='test';insert a;" ExecAnon
  • usage: ant "-Dwhat=delete [SELECT Id FROM Object1__c];" ExecAnon
• ExecAnonScript
  • can be used to execute a anonymous apex script from the command line
  • usage: ant "-Dwhat=datasets\basic.txt" ExecAnonScript
  • Or create an ant target that maps to your dataset and excute that ant target (see the build.xml for 4 examples)
• RunTests
  • used to execute all unit tests and outputs the results to a file.
  • usage: ant RunTests

The lib folder contains all of the items required to use the deploy tools, including:

• Four Ant xml scripts to be included in your build file
• Various jar files needed to support some custom Ant tasks used by the scripts
