SFDX-Falcon Plugin

A plugin for the Salesforce CLI that enables and enhances implementation of the SFDX-Falcon family of projects, including the AppExchange Demo Kit (ADK) and AppExchange Package Kit (APK).

Installation

Installing the SFDX-Falcon Plugin is easy if you have already installed the Salesforce CLI.

Open a terminal window (command prompt) and enter the following:

$ sfdx plugins:install sfdx-falcon

You should see something similar to this:

Important Notes:

1. The command sfdx plugins:install pulls the plugin source code directly from the sfdx-falcon package, hosted by NPM
2. The SFDX-Falcon Plugin has not been digitially signed (yet), so you will need to acknowledge the warning to continue the installation

What's Included With the SFDX-Falcon Plugin?

AppExchange Demo Kit (ADK)

The AppExchange Demo Kit (ADK) allows Salesforce Developers to build and share rich, dynamic demo orgs in a source-centric manner without requiring batch files or shell scripts.

AppExchange Package Kit (APK)

The AppExchange Package Kit (APK) builds on the SFDX-Falcon Template to provide tools and frameworks tailored specifically for developing Managed Packages in agile, continuously-building, team-based envrionments using Salesforce DX.

Important Notes:

1. The command sfdx plugins:install lets the Salesforce CLI know that you want to install a plugin
2. The SFDX-Falcon plugin has not been digitially signed (yet), so you will need to acknowledge the warning to continue the installation
