Dcgen

dcgen is a simple tool that generates a destructiveChanges.xml by comparing two salesforce source directories.

A typical usage example is if you use an SCM to manage your salesforce code and metadata. You can compare your repository contents against what is in a sandbox. Any element that is in you sandbox but is not on your SCM will be included in the destructiveChange.xml.

Installation

# gem install salesforce-dcgen

Usage

To get destructiveChanges.xml between two directories just run:

$ dcgen -m dir/to/scm/repo -d dir/to/sandbox/source/code

Metadata API supported:

At the moment the following metadata is supported:

apexclass apexpage approvalprocess customfield group permissionset workflowrule labels

More to come...

Checkout the code, at the moment is VERY easy to add more metadata
