Salesforce Objects

▪ Similar to Tables (with more metadata)▪ Standard objects out-of-the-box

– Account, Contact, Opportunity, …

▪ You can add custom fields to standard objects– Rating__c, Twitter__c, …

▪ You can create custom objects– i.e. Speaker__c, Session__c, Hotel__c

▪ Custom objects have standard fields– Id, Owner, LastModifiedDate, LastModifiedBy, …

Rich Data Types

▪ Auto Number

▪ Formula

▪ Roll-Up Summary

▪ Lookup

▪ Master-Detail

▪ Checkbox

▪ Currency

▪ Date

▪ Picklist (multi select)

▪ Text

▪ Text Area (Long)

▪ Text Area (Rich)

▪ Text (Encrypted)

▪ URL

▪ Date/Time

▪ Email

▪ Geolocation

▪ Number

▪ Percent

▪ Phone

▪ Picklist

Modeling One-to-Many Relationships

An expense has one expense report

An expense report has many expenses

Modeling Many-to-Many Relationships

A speaker can have many session assignments

A session can have many speaker assignments

Id

▪ All objects are given an Id field

▪ Globally unique Id is assigned at record creation

▪ "Primary key" used to access records

Record Name

▪ Human readable / logical identifier

▪ Text or Auto Number ("Intro to Apex" or SP-00002)

▪ Uniqueness not enforced

When you create an Object, you get…

▪ Security for Entity▪ A CRUD user interface

▪ Instant Mobile App access (Salesforce1)

▪ REST/SOAP/Bulk/Push APIs

▪ Rich Metadata

▪ Apex Class

▪ Indexed Search

▪ Reporting and Analytics

Module 2b:

Module 4:

Accessing Data with SOQL and DML

What's SOQL?

▪ Salesforce Object Query language

▪ Similar to SQL

▪ Streamlined syntax to traverse object relationships

▪ Built into Apex

SELECT Id, Name, Phone

FROM Contact

SELECT Id, Name, Phone

FROM Contact

WHERE Phone <> null

SELECT Id, Name, Phone

FROM Contact

WHERE Phone <> null

AND Name LIKE '%rose%'

SELECT Id, Name, Phone

FROM Contact

WHERE Phone <> null

AND Name LIKE '%rose%'

ORDER BY Name

SELECT Id, Name, Phone

FROM Contact

WHERE Phone <> null

AND Name LIKE '%rose%'

ORDER BY Name

LIMIT 50

Details to Master

SELECT Id, Name, Phone, Account.Name

FROM Contact

WHERE Phone <> null

AND Name LIKE '%rose%'

ORDER BY Name

LIMIT 50

Master to Details

SELECT Name,

(SELECT FirstName, LastName, Phone

FROM Contacts)

FROM Account

Executing SOQL in the Developer Console

Inlining SOQL in Apex

Integer i = [SELECT Count() FROM Session__c];

Inlining SOQL in Apex

String level = 'Advanced';

List<Session__c> sessions =

[SELECT Name, Level__c FROM Session__c

WHERE Level__c = :level];

Inlining SOQL in Apex

List<String> levels = new List<String>();

levels.add('Intermediate');

levels.add('Advanced');

List<Session__c> sessions =

[SELECT Name, Level__c FROM Session__c

WHERE Level__c IN :levels];

Inlining SOQL in Apex

for (Speaker__c s : [SELECT Email__c FROM Speaker__c])

{

System.debug(s.email__c);

}

What's DML?

▪ Data Manipulation Language

▪ Language used to create, update, delete records

insert

Session__c session = new Session__c();

session.name = 'Apex 101';

session.level__c = 'Beginner';

insert session;

insert

Session__c session = new Session__c(

name = 'Apex 201',

level__c = 'Intermediate'

);

insert session;

update

String oldName = 'Apex 101';

String newName = 'Apex for Beginners';

Session__c session = [SELECT Id, Name FROM Session__c

WHERE Name=:oldName];

session.name = newName;

update session;

delete

String name = 'Testing 501';

Session__c session =

[SELECT Name FROM Session__c

WHERE Name=:name];

delete session;

Lab 4: Accessing Data using SOQL and DML

▪ Execute SOQL statements in the Query Editor

▪ Execute DML statements in the Anonymous Window

http://bit.ly/sf-dev-quick

Module 5:

Writing Triggers

What's a Trigger?

▪ Apex code executed on database events

▪ Before or after:– Insert

– Update

– Delete

– Undelete

Before or After?

▪ Before– Update values before they are saved to the database

– Example: Prevent double-booking of a speaker

▪ After– Validate values before they are saved

– Access values set by the database (Id, lastUpdated, …)

– Example: Send speaker confirmation email

Bulk Mode

▪ Triggers work on lists of records, not single records

▪ This is to support bulk operations– Data Import, Bulk API, etc.

▪ Context variables provide access to old and new values:– Trigger.old and Trigger.new (List)

– Trigger.oldMap and Trigger.newMap (Map)

Example 1trigger WelcomeKit on Account (after insert) {

List<Case> cases = new List<Case>();

for (Account account : Trigger.new) {

Case case = new Case();

case.Subject = 'Mail Welcome Kit';

case.Account.Id = account.Id;

cases.add(case);

}

insert cases;

}

Example 2trigger on Account (before update) {

for (Account acc: Trigger.New) {

// Compare new value with old value

if (acc.Rating != Trigger.oldMap.get(acc.Id).Rating) {

// Your Logic

}

}

}

Workflow vs Trigger

Workflow Trigger

Created with Clicks Code

What can it do • Update field• Send email• Create task• Send outbound message• Launch flow (flow trigger)

~ Anything (e.g. create/delete records, REST callout, etc.)

Cross-object field updates Limited (detail -> master) Any

Lab 5: Writing Triggers

▪ Write the SendConfirmationEmail trigger

▪ Write the RejectDoubleBooking trigger

http://bit.ly/sf-dev-quick

Module 6:

Writing Visualforce Pages

What's a Visualforce Page?

▪ HTML page with tags executed at the server-side to generate dynamic content

▪ Similar to JSP and ASP

▪ Can leverage JavaScript and CSS libraries

▪ The View in MVC architecture

Model-View-Controller

ModelData + Rules

ControllerView-Modelinteractions

ViewUI code

▪ Separation of concerns– No data access code in view

– No view code in controller

▪ Benefits– Minimize impact of changes

– More reusable components

Model-View-Controller in Salesforce

View• Standard Pages• Visualforce Pages• External apps

Controller• Standard Controllers• Controller Extensions• Custom Controllers

Model• Objects• Triggers (Apex)• Classes (Apex)

Component Library

▪ Presentation tags– <apex:pageBlock title="My Account Contacts">

▪ Fine grained data tags– <apex:outputField value="{!contact.firstname}">– <apex:inputField value="{!contact.firstname}">

▪ Coarse grained data tags– <apex:detail>– <apex:pageBlockTable>

▪ Action tags– <apex:commandButton action="{!save}" >

Expression Language

▪ Anything inside of {! } is evaluated as an expression

▪ Same expression language as Formulas

▪ $ provides access to global variables (Resource, Label, User, RemoteAction, …)– {! $Resource.JSLib }

– {! $Label.MyCustomLabel }

Example: Expressions <apex:page> <apex:stylesheet value=”{!URLFOR($Resource.files,’style.css’)}”/>

<h1>Hello, {!$User.FirstName}</h1>

</apex:page>

Important Note: Normally Visualforce tags do not support line breaks!

Standard Controller

▪ A standard controller is available for all objects– You don't have to write it!

▪ Provides standard CRUD operations– Create, Update, Delete, Field Access, etc.

▪ Can be extended with more capabilities (next module)

▪ Uses id query string parameter in URL to access object

Example: Standard Controller

<apex:page standardController="Contact">

<apex:form>

<apex:inputField value="{!contact.firstname}"/>

<apex:inputField value="{!contact.lastname}"/>

<apex:commandButton action="{!save}" value="Save"/>

</apex:form>

</apex:page>Method in standard

controller

Standard controllerobject

Standard controllerfield

Email Templates Embedded in Page Layouts Generate PDFs

Custom Tabs

Mobile Interfaces

Page Overrides

Where can I use Visualforce?

Lab 6: Writing Visualforce Pages

▪ Write the SpeakerForm Visualforce page

▪ Set it as default for creating and editing speakers

http://bit.ly/sf-dev-quick

Module 7:

Writing Controller Extensions and Custom Controllers

What's a Controller Extension?

▪ Custom class written in Apex

▪ Implements constructor with controller parameter

▪ Works on the same object as the standard controller

▪ Used to extend or override standard controller behavior

Defining a Controller Extension in Markup

<apex:page standardController="Speaker__c" extensions="SpeakerCtrlExt">

Provides basic CRUD

Overrides standard actions and/or provide additional capabilities

Anatomy of a Controller Extension in Apexpublic class SpeakerCtrlExt {

private final Speaker__c speaker;

private ApexPages.StandardController stdController;

public SpeakerCtrlExt (ApexPages.StandardController ctrl) {

this.stdController = ctrl;

this.speaker = (Speaker__c)ctrl.getRecord();

}

// method overrides

// custom methods

}

What's a Custom Controller?

▪ Custom class written in Apex

▪ Doesn't work on a specific object

▪ Provides custom data

▪ Provides custom behaviors

▪ Can also work with an extension

Defining a Custom Controller

<apex:page controller="FlickrController">

Custom Controller Examplepublic with sharing class FlickrController {

public FlickrList getPictures() {

HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest();

req.setMethod('GET');

req.setEndpoint('http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/');

HTTP http = new HTTP();

HTTPResponse res = http.send(req);

return (FlickrList) JSON.deserialize(res.getBody(),

FlickrList.class);

}

}

Lab 7: Writing a Controller Extension

▪ Write a Controller Extension that supports Picture Upload

Module 8:

Using JavaScript in Visualforce Pages

Why Use JavaScript?

▪ Build Engaging User Experiences

▪ Leverage JavaScript Libraries

▪ Build Custom Applications

JavaScript in Visualforce Pages

JavaScript RemotingRemote Objects

(REST)

Visualforce Page

Examples

JavaScript Remoting - Server-Sideglobal with sharing class HotelRemoter {

@RemoteAction global static List<Hotel__c> findAll() { return [SELECT Id,

Name, Location__Latitude__s, Location__Longitude__s

FROM Hotel__c]; }

}

"global with sharing"?

▪ global– Available from outside of the application

▪ with sharing– Run code with current user permissions. (Apex code runs in

system context by default -- with access to all objects and fields)

JavaScript Remoting - Visualforce Page<script>Visualforce.remoting.Manager.invokeAction( '{!$RemoteAction.HotelRemoter.findAll}', function (result, event) { if (event.status) { for (var i = 0; i < result.length; i++) {

var lat = result[i].Location__Latitude__s; var lng = result[i].Location__Longitude__s; addMarker(lat, lng); } } else { alert(event.message); } });</script>

Using JavaScript and CSS Libraries

▪ Hosted elsewhere<script src="https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/js"></script>

▪ Hosted in Salesforce– Upload individual file or Zip file as Static Resource

– Reference asset using special tags

– Covered in Module 10

Lab 8: Using JavaScript in Visualforce Pages(Workbook Module 3)

▪ Write the HotelMap Visualforce Page

http://bit.ly/sf-dev-adv

Module 9:

Using the REST APIs

When?

Get access to Salesforce data from outside Salesforce:

▪ Integrate Salesforce in existing apps

▪ Build consumer apps

▪ Device integration (Internet of Things)

Mobile SDK Example

REST APIs

OAuth

Browser Cross-Origin Restrictions

REST APIs

app.jsindex.html

OAuth

HTTP Server

Cross Origin Policy

Using a Proxy

app.jsindex.html

OAuth

REST APIs

HTTP Server

Proxy

http://bit.ly/trysoql

https://contact-force.herokuapp.com

https://conference-force.herokuapp.com

Connected App

Salesforce REST Toolkit

https://github.com/developerforce/Force.com-JavaScript-REST-Toolkit

Lab 9: Using the REST APIs(Workbook Module 4)

▪ Create a consumer app hosted outside Salesforce

http://bit.ly/sf-dev-adv

Windows Users

After installing Node.js:

1. Add c:\Program Files\Nodejs to your pathorRun "C:\Program Files\Nodejs\npm" install

2. Create an "npm" directory in C:\Users\[yourname]\Appdata\Roaming

Module 10:

Using Static Resources

What are Static Resources?

▪ Files uploaded to Salesforce instance for use in Visualforce pages– .js

– .css

– .jpg, .png, .gif, etc.

▪ Can be uploaded individually or as archive (.zip or .jar)

Static Resources

Referencing Static Resources// Single file

<apex:stylesheet value="{!$Resource.bootstrap}"/>

<apex:includeScript value="{!$Resource.jquery}"/>

<apex:image url="{!$Resource.logo}"/>

// ZIP file

<apex:stylesheet value="{!URLFOR($Resource.assets, 'css/main.css')}"/>

<apex:image url="{!URLFOR($Resource.assets, 'img/logo.png')}"/>

<apex:includeScript value="{!URLFOR($Resource.assets, 'js/app.js')}"/>

Visualforce and HTML Page Generation

▪ By default, Visualforce generates HTML page elements:– <html>

– <head>

– <body>

▪ <apex:> tags ensure corresponding HTML elements are inserted at the right place– <apex:stylesheet>

– <apex:includeScript>

Controlling HTML Page Generation

▪ You can also take full control over HTML elements generation and position:

<apex:page docType="html" applyHtmlTag="false"

applyBodyTag="false">

▪ … and use standard HTML tags– <link rel="stylesheet" href="…">

– <script src="…">

Lab 10: Static Resources(Workbook Module 5)

▪ Host single page application in Visualforce page

http://bit.ly/sf-dev-adv

Module 11:

Using Canvas Applications

What is a Canvas App?

▪ A web app integrated in your Salesforce environment

▪ Can be written in any language– Java, .NET, PHP, Ruby on Rails, Node.js, etc.

▪ Transparently authenticated

▪ Context aware (logged in user, current object, etc.)

Use Cases

▪ Internal App

▪ Third-Party / Partner App

▪ External systems with web facade

Where Can It Be Integrated?

▪ Publisher

▪ Page Layouts

▪ Visualforce Pages

▪ Tabs

▪ Mobile Cards

Defining a Canvas App

Transparent Authentication

▪ When loading Canvas app, Salesforce instance posts Base64 encoded data to app endpoint including:– Authenticated token

– Context (logged in user, current object, etc)

▪ App decodes data using client secret

▪ Can use authenticated token to make REST API calls

Node.js examplevar decode = require('salesforce-signed-request');

var secret = process.env.CONSUMER_SECRET;

app.post('/signedrequest', function(req, res) {

var signedRequest = req.body.signed_request;

var decodedRequest = decode(signedRequest, secret);

var oauthToken = decodedRequest.client.oauthToken;

var instanceUrl = decodedRequest.client.instanceUrl;

var context = decodedRequest.context;

});

Lab 11: Canvas(Workbook module 6)

▪ Deploy Node.js web app to Heroku

▪ Integrate app in Contact page layout

http://bit.ly/sf-dev-adv

Module 12:

Writing Unit Tests

Unit Testing

▪ Code to test code

▪ Increases quality and predictability

▪ Unit test coverage is required to move code to production– Must have at least 75% of code covered

– Coverage = lines of code exercised by tests / total line of code

Anatomy of a Test Class@isTest

private class myClass {

static testMethod void myTest() {

// 1. Prepare temporary data

// 2. Start Test

// 3. Execute some code

// 4. Stop Test

// 5. Assert

}

}

Create Temporary DataDatetime now = System.now();

// Create speaker

Speaker__c sp = new Speaker__c(First_Name__c='Al', Last_Name__c='Smith');

insert sp;

// Create two sessions starting at the same time

Session__c s1 = new Session__c(Name='Session1', Session_Date__c=now);

insert s1;

Session__c s2 = new Session__c(Name='Session2', Session_Date__c=now);

insert s2;

// Book speaker for session1

Session_Speaker__c booking1 =

new Session_Speaker__c(Session__c=s1.Id, Speaker__c=sp.Id);

insert booking1;

Test and AssertTest.startTest();

// Try to book speaker for session2

Session_Speaker__c booking2=

new Session_Speaker__c(Session__c=s2.Id, Speaker__c=sp.Id);

Database.SaveResult result = Database.insert(booking2, false);

Test.stopTest();

// Insert should fail: can't book same speaker for 2 sessions happening

// at same time

System.assert(!result.isSuccess());

Running Tests

Lab 12: Unit Testing(Workbook Module 7)

▪ Write the TestDoubleBooking class

▪ Run the test

http://bit.ly/sf-dev-adv

Module 13:

Batch and Schedule

What's a Batch?

▪ Long-running process that runs without manual intervention

▪ Started programmatically

Defining a Batch Jobglobal class SendReminderEmail implements Database.Batchable {

global SendReminderEmail(String query, String subject, String body) {

// Constructor: accept parameters

}

global Database.QueryLocator start(Database.BatchableContext bc) {

// Select scope (records to process)

}

global void execute(Database.BatchableContext bc, List<Speaker__c> scope) {

// Process data

}

global void finish(Database.BatchableContext bc) {

// Post processing operations

}

}

Running the Batch JobString q = 'SELECT First_Name__c, Last_Name__c, Email__c ' +

'FROM Speaker__c WHERE Email__c != null';

SendReminderEmail batch = new SendReminderEmail(q,

'Final Reminder', 'The conference starts next Monday');

Database.executeBatch(batch);

What's Scheduled Job?

▪ Unattended background program execution

▪ Occurs at a specified time

▪ Optionally repeated at a specified interval

Defining a Scheduled Jobglobal class ScheduledEmail implements Schedulable {

global void execute(SchedulableContext sc) {

String q = 'SELECT First_Name__c, Last_Name__c, Email__c ' +

'FROM Speaker__c WHERE Email__c != null';

SendReminderEmail batch = new SendReminderEmail(q,

'Final Reminder', 'The conference starts next Monday');

Database.executeBatch(batch);

}

}

Scheduling the Job (using Code)ScheduledEmail job = new ScheduledEmail();

// Run at 8AM on February 10th// (Seconds Minutes Hours Day_of_month Month Day_of_week Years)// Can use wildcards String schedule = '0 0 8 10 2 ?';

String jobId = System.schedule('Final reminder', schedule, job);

Scheduling the Job (using Clicks)

Monitoring Scheduled Jobs
