folder-profile

Providing an easier way to manage profile changes through source control

A simple sfdx script to streamline the process of profile creation making use of folder structure, CSV and JSON files.

• The script takes a source folder with named subfolders.
• These subfolders will be the the names of the created Profiles.
• CSV names provide the attribute type name + CSV data provides values.
• JSON is used for single attribute tags. i.e 'custom'

Profiles [SOURCE]
|---Admin
|   |   fieldPermission.csv
|   |   objectPermission.csv
|---Sales User
|   |   fieldPermission.csv
|   |   objectPermission.csv
|   |   layoutAssignment.csv
|---Marketing User
|   |   fieldPermission.csv
|   |   objectPermission.csv
|   |   otherAttributes.json

Transforms to

ProfilesOutput [TARGET]
|   Admin.profile-meta.xml
|   Sales User.profile-meta.xml
|   Marketing User.profile-meta.xml

Warning

• Currently SOURCE and TARGET should both be absolute paths due to the early nature of this project.
