JSForce Patterns

This is a helper extension for JSForce. This library aims to create reusable and dynamic functionality by abstracting repetitively used methods. Instead of method chaining actions together - enter all your parameters into one method which you can either async/await or still optionally callback.

Installation

npm install jsforce-patterns

Example

Query for specifc Account record, update record with new random number in Account Name, and verify Account record was updated.

const { login, findOne, updateRecord, logout } = require('jsforce-patterns');
 
const execute = async () => {
  try {
    // Login
    const conn = await login(
      {
        username: process.env.SF_USERNAME,
        password: process.env.SF_PASSWORD,
      },
      (err, res) => {
        if (!err) {
          console.log('Login successful');
        }
      }
    );
 
    // Query
    console.log('Execute Query...');
    const record = await findOne(conn, 'Account', {
      conditions: { Id: process.env.SF_ACCOUNT_RECORD_ID },
      fields: 'Id, Name',
    });
 
    // Results
    console.log('Current Account Name:', record.Name);
    const newAccountName =
      'Updated Account #' + Math.floor(Math.random() * 1000);
    console.log('Change Account Name To:', newAccountName);
 
    // Update
    await updateRecord(conn, 'Account', {
      Id: record.Id,
      Name: newAccountName,
    });
 
    // Verify
    console.log('Execute Query...');
    const updatedRecord = await findOne(conn, 'Account', {
      conditions: { Id: process.env.SF_ACCOUNT_RECORD_ID },
      fields: 'Id, Name',
    });
    console.log('Updated Account Name:', updatedRecord.Name);
 
    // Logout
    await logout(conn, (err) => {
      if (!err) {
        console.log('Logout successful!');
      }
    });
  }
};
 
execute();
