Deploy Source to Org without showing the Terminal

Deploy source to Salesforce Org and only show the Terminal if the deployment was unsuccessful.

Overview

If you have a small screen or you don't want to close the terminal every time after a deploy (like me), you can deploy the source into Salesforce Org and just view the Terminal if the source has any error.

Requirements

• Salesforce Project
• Authenticated Salesforce Org
• Opened file

Features

For now you can deploy these metadata:

• Apex Class
• Apex Trigger
• Flexi Page
• Flow
• LWC
• Page Layout
• Permission Set
• Permission Set Group
• Visualforce Component
• Visualforce Page

How to use it

With a file opened, use one of these methods:

1. Command Pallet option:

DSWT: Deploy this Source to Salesforce Org without Terminal

2. Right button on opened file:

DSWT: Deploy this Source to Salesforce Org without Terminal

3. Set a Keyboard Shortcut:

Code > Settings > Keyboard Shortcuts menu or use the Preferences: Open Keyboard Shortcuts

Set your preferred keyboard shortcut for option:

DSWT: Deploy this Source to Salesforce Org without Terminal

Basic usage

Edit your source, save locally and then use one of the methods described on How to use it and wait for the response.

If there is error, the Terminal will be shown with the related errors:

If there is no error, nothing is showed:

Information messages will be displayed at the right bottom corner of VSCode.
