fortuneteller

Salesforce Commerce Cloud aka SFCC/Demandware meta data uploader VS Code extension

Features

• Upload and import meta datas with one command

Usage

After installing the extension, open the Command Palette and type Fortuneteller: Upload meta data (Ctrl+Shift+P in Windows, Cmd+Shift+P in Mac OS). You should see toasts appearing and informing you about the status of upload and import of meta datas.

Requirements

• SFCC developer sandbox with admin rights
• API user with client id and secret (created from Salesforce's Account Manager)
• VSCode version > v1.62.2
• A code workspace with a dw.json file
• SFCC developer sandbox
• Internet connection
• Electricity (otherwise your computer will shut down)

Setup

Sandbox permissions (WebDAV and OCAPI)

In order to allow fortuneteller to upload the metadata into the sandbox (using WebDAV), and import the metadata by executing the out of the box SFCC job sfcc-site-archive-import, you need to give permission to the previously created API user (cf. Requirements).

WebDAV permissions

In your sandbox, under Administration > Organization > WebDAV Client Permissions, use the following snippet by replacing my_client_id with your API user's client ID. Note, if you already have WebDAV Client Permissions configured, e.g. for other API keys, you have to merge this permission set into the existing list of permission sets for the other clients.

{
   "clients":[
      {
         "client_id": "my_client_id",
         "permissions":[
            {
               "operations":[
                  "read_write"
               ],
               "path": "/impex"
            }
         ]
      }
   ]
}

OCAPI settings

In your sandbox, under Administration > Site Development > Open Commerce API Settings, use the following snippet by replacing my_client_id with your API user's client ID. Note, if you already have Open Commerce API Settings configured, e.g. for other API keys, you have to merge this permission set into the existing list of permission sets for the other clients.

{
   "_v": "19.5",
   "clients":[
      {
         "client_id": "my_client_id",
         "resources":[
            {
               "resource_id": "/jobs/*/executions",
               "methods":[
                  "post"
               ],
               "read_attributes": "(**)",
               "write_attributes": "(**)"
            },
            {
               "resource_id": "/jobs/*/executions/*",
               "methods":[
                  "get"
               ],
               "read_attributes": "(**)",
               "write_attributes": "(**)"
            }
         ]
      }
   ]
}

Extension settings

Create (if not already exists) a dw.json inside your code workspace using the following snippet by replacing my_client_id with your API user's client ID and my_client_secret with your API user's client secret. Note, if you already have a dw.json in your workspace, e.g. for cartridges upload with Prophet extension, you have to merge this configuration into the existing dw.json.

{
    "client-id": "my_client_id",
    "client-secret": "my_client_secret",
    "metadata-files": [
        "myFirstProject/site_template/meta/system-objecttype-extensions.xml",
        "myFirstProject/site_template/meta/system-objecttype-extensions.xml",
        "test-repo/data/meta/custom-objecttype-extensions.xml",
        "anotherProject/custom-objecttype-definitions.xml",
        "as many paths to meta data files in this array"
    ]
}
