Can I customize the package as per the sfdx folder structure #231

Closed Saranyagotraladevops closed 4 years ago

As per the force-dev-tool, src/package.xml folder structure. Now for sfdx cli it is like force-dev-tool/ and manifest/ folder structure. Is it possible for me to customize force-dev-tool to sfdx cli folder. I need this change to be applicable on change set creation. Please suggest.

@Saranyagotraladevops Per convention force-dev-tool uses the src directory and for changeset creation following this convention is currently the only way to make it work.

Please note that force-dev-tool only works for Metadata in the traditional (composed) format. It doesn't work with the uncomposed SFDX source format of Metadata.

Only for retrieving or deploying another Metadata folder (in traditional format) you can specify the folder

force-dev-tool retrieve -d path/to/myothermetadatafolder
force-dev-tool deploy -d path/to/myothermetadatafolder
