Abuse the Force

A tool expanding upon Metaforce for deploying to multiple orgs as well as simpler setup for use as a pseudo compiler

Features

• Store orgs config file for easy switching between deploy targets
• Familiar command sub-command interface (think git)
• Deploy single files without deploying the entire project
• Vim plugin

Usage

Much like git, you initialize your project directory by adding your deploy targets first. Once you have one set you can view the active target with atf target. If you want to deploy from there you just execute one of the deploy commands.

Simple Setup Example

# Add production
atf target add production vividboarder@mycompany.com MY_SECURITY_TOKEN
# Deploy to production
atf deploy project
# Add a sandbox
atf target add sandbox vividboarder@mycompany.com.sandbox MY_SECURITY_TOKEN --sandbox
# Switch active targets
atf target activate sandbox
# Deploy to sandbox
atf deploy project

More advanced documentation can be found by running any of the help commands.

atf help
atf deploy help
atf retrieve help
atf target help

Why This Over Metaforce?

• Vim and Sublime plugins (coming soon...)
• Command line configuration management
• Options for deploying or retrieving a single file
• Encrypted Passwords coming soon

Installation

Must have ruby 1.9 and gem installed

git clone git://github.com/ViViDboarder/abuse-the-force.git
cd abuse-the-force
gem build abusetheforce.gemspec
gem install abusetheforce-X.X.X.gem # make sure the proper version is present
