CTL-SHIFT-B for Non-Scratch Org in VS Code

Can someone provide a task.json example file so my build shortcut pushes just the changed files to a DE org?  NOT a scratch org.

An example file would be great.  Thanks!

Hi Dave,

Below is the sample snippet for your task.json reference.

{
  "version": "0.2.1",
  "outDir": "\"${workspaceRoot}\\bin\"",
  "tasks": [
    {
      "taskName": "makefile-build",
      "appliesTo": "makefile",
      "type": "launch",
      "contextType": "build",
      "command": "nmake",
      "args": [ "build" ],
      "envVars": {
        "VSCMD_START_DIR": "\"${workspaceRoot}\""
      }
    },
    {
      "taskName": "makefile-clean",
      "appliesTo": "makefile",
      "type": "launch",
      "contextType": "clean",
      "command": "nmake",
      "args": [ "clean" ],
      "envVars": {
        "VSCMD_START_DIR": "\"${workspaceRoot}\""
      }
    },
    {
      "taskName": "makefile-rebuild",
      "appliesTo": "makefile",
      "type": "launch",
      "contextType": "rebuild",
      "command": "nmake",
      "args": [ "rebuild" ],
      "envVars": {
        "VSCMD_START_DIR": "\"${workspaceRoot}\""
      }
    }
  ]
}

Thanks for trying to help but this does pass validation on save -- 19 errors -- or seem to have anything to do with pushing my changes to a Salesforce org.

Hi Dave,

This is something with VS configuration on from salesforce.

Try to reach out to VS support and they can help you or guide on configure in task.json.
