PLUGIN

Filter metadatas folder with your own package.xml file

This can help if you need to deploy only part of the result of sfdx force:source:convert into a org, by filtering the result (usually in mdapi_output_dir) to keep only the items referenced in your own package.xml file

WARNING: This version does not support all the metadata types yet, please contribute if you are in a hurry :)

INSTALLATION

    sfdx plugins:install sfdx_metadatas_filtering

• Windows users: sfdx plugin generator is bugged on windows (hardcode call of linux rm instruction) , so you may use Git Bash to run this code ( at least while it installs the plugin dependencies )
