Useful Tips

auto run apex anonymous code

auto run apex anonymous code after save .apex.

change the config: ~/.xycode/xycode.sfdx.json set inActive false as below.

"onSaveEvents": [
    {
        "label": "auto run apex anonymous code.",
        "description": "run apex anonymous code after save.",
        "filetypes": [".apex"],
        "cwd": "${fileDirname}",
        "inActive": false,
        "command": "sfdx force:apex:execute --apexcodefile \"${file}\""
    }
]

also, you can write a command and run .soql after you save.

pretty apex code

    "onSaveEvents": [
        {
            "label": "pretty apex code.",
            "description": "use prettier-plugin-apex to format salesforce apex code. npm install --global prettier prettier-plugin-apex ",
            "filetypes": [".trigger", ".cls"],
            "cwd": "${fileDirname}",
            "inActive": true,
            "command": "prettier --parser=apex --write \"${file}\" --tab-width=4 --single-quote=true"
        },
        {
            "label": "pretty apex anonymous code.",
            "description": "pretty apex anonymous code",
            "filetypes": [".apex"],
            "cwd": "${fileDirname}",
            "inActive": true,
            "command": "prettier --parser=apex --write \"${file}\" --tab-width=4 --single-quote=true --apex-anonymous"
