Simple GUI to help Salesforce admins and developers to use git and sfdx cli tools without using the terminal.

Power To Admins

This project is made to give salesforce administrators a GUI to easily use git and sfdx-cli tools in their daily workflow.

As a Salesforce administrator you sometimes need to know a lot of stuff, and git now days needs to be one of those things, with this (hopefully) friendly GUI, you will be able to use basic git commands, retrieve metadata from the org you made changes and push everything to the source control system of your team.

This come with a lot of benefits, because you will be able to easily version control all your automation's and other kind of metadata you track in your sandbox!

power-to-admins's Issues

Create Actions for: 'Push', 'Pull', 'Fetch' and 'Remote'

As an User inside de GUI.
I should be able to pull, push and fetch data from the remote repo
and also to set up the remote repository.
So As a developer I need to expose this functionality to the UI interface so that can be integrated later.

design gui

As an User
I'd like To open the app an see a two column layout, the left one with my folder tree (if I have any) and the second one with info about files I change, add, update or delete. (name and operation in the file).
So As a developer I have to create the design for that two column layout.

Make Logs from task available in dev enviroments

As a developer
I want to see logs from the git and sfdx process running
So as developer I have to implement a logger so the process can be traced.

Pino-debug and debug are the options that are in consideration for this work. Those are already added as dev dependencies inside the package.json file.

Create actions for standard init and clone Salesforce projects.

As an User,
I'm in a new tab,
So I can init or clone a new salesforce dx project or choose an existing one
As a developer I have to make this functionality's available for the UI to call,

AC1: All functions should handle the errors and log them.
AC2: Al functions should return and object with: code, status, error (if none, return null).

Create actions for: 'add' and 'commit'

As an User inside the app
I should be able to see my changes and add one by one or all
After that I should be able to commit my work.

For this, in the backend, I should export two functions to handle this responsibilities.
