Development Setup Guide

This guide will walk you through setting up a developer environment allowing you to deploy Org Check as your own unlocked package.

This page is also a good start if you want to participate in the project and propose your own PR o the team!

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following:

• A development setup with two connected Salesforce orgs
• Salesforce CLI installed

Step 1: Clone the Org Check Project

First, clone the Org Check project repository from GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/SalesforceLabs/OrgCheck.git
cd OrgCheck

Step 2: Connect Developer Orgs

You need two developer orgs:

1. Dev Hub Org: Enable Unlocked Packages and Second-Generation Managed Packages settings.
2. Namespace Org: A single DevHub can link multiple namespaces, but a packaging project must be linked to one Namespace Org.

Connect Dev Hub Org

Log in to your Dev Hub org and enable the necessary settings.

Link Namespace in Dev Hub Org

1. Go to App Launcher.
2. Search for Namespace Registries.
3. Click Link and sign in to your Namespace Org.

Step 3: Update Project Definition

Edit the sfdx-project.json file to specify the namespace:

{
  "packageDirectories": [
    {
      "path": "<namespace>",
      "default": true,
      "package": "<namespace>",
      "versionName": "Beryllium",
      "versionNumber": "4.3.2.NEXT",
      "versionDescription": "Org Check is an easy-to-install and easy-to-use Salesforce application in order to quickly analyze your org and its technical debt."
    }
  ],
  "namespace": "<namespace>",
  "sfdcLoginUrl": "https://login.salesforce.com",
  "sourceApiVersion": "60.0"
}

Replace <namespace> with your actual namespace.

Step 4: Rename the Force-App Folder

Rename the force-app folder to match your namespace name.

Step 5: Adjust VisualForce Page

Update the OrgCheck_App_VFP.page to point to your namespace as well:

<apex:page
    <script>
        Lightning.use('<namespace>:OrgCheck_App_Aura', function() {
            $Lightning.createComponent('<namespace>:orgcheckApp', {});
        });
    </script>
</apex:page>

Replace <namespace> with your actual namespace.

Step 6: Create the Package

Create the package using the Salesforce CLI:

sf package create --name <namespace> --package-type Unlocked --path <namespace> --target-dev-hub <devhubalias>

Note the generated Package Id.

Step 7: Create a Package Version

Create a package version with the generated Package Id:

sf package version create --package <namespace> --installation-key-bypass --wait 10 --target-dev-hub <devhubalias>

Note the Subscriber Package Version Id from the output.

Step 8: Optional - Create a Scratch Org

If you want to use a scratch org, create it using:

sf org create scratch --definition-file orgs/dev.json --alias <scratchorgalias> --target-dev-hub <devhubalias> --wait 10

Step 9: Deploy the Package

Deploy the package to your org using the Subscriber Package Version Id.

sf package install --package 04tDn0000011NpHIAU -u <scratchorgalias> -w 10

Alternatively, you can use the corresponding alias of the version id, which has been generated for you (on step 7) in the sfdx-project.json under the section packageAliases.

sf package install --package <namespace>@1.2.3.4 -u <scratchorgalias> -w 10

Debugging

To debug, go to Setup in Salesforce:

1. Navigate to Visualforce Pages.
2. Look for OrgCheck_App_VFP.
3. Click Preview to view the page.

If you encounter any issues, check the following:

• Verify the Visualforce page is correctly pointing to your namespace.
• Ensure the namespace is correctly set in sfdx-project.json.

Conclusion

You should now have a fully working unlocked package of Org Check, using your own namespace. For further assistance, refer to the official documentation or reach out to the community. Happy coding!
