Scratch Org - First Metadata Deployment (Push) using Repository

In my previous article, Salesforce Scratch Org Based (Source-Driven) Development Workflow - Scratch Org Setup, I have set up a public repository sfdxrepo and explained steps needed to create a scratch org.

In this article, I'm going to walk through the steps required to deploy (push) metadata from the repository.

Pre-requisite

• Logged into Scratch Org using CLI - If you are following my article Salesforce Scratch Org Based (Source-Driven) Development Workflow - Scratch Org Setup, then you are already in your just created scratch org.
• Access to Repository - sfdxrepo. This repository is private, please give me a ping if any challenge with repo access.

Metadata Deployment

1. In Visual Studio Code, open the Command Palette by pressing Ctrl+Shift+P on Windows or Cmd+Shift+P on macOS.
2. Type SFDX.
3. Select SFDX: Push Source to Default Scratch Org.

1. This should start the push operation to default scratch org. Once finished the output message should show "exit code 0", something similar to below picture: -

Alternatively, you can also use sfdx force:source:push command through the command line.

Go to your scratch org and in Setup >> Environments >> Deploy >> Deployment Status, you can confirm the latest deployment. The screen should look something similar to below: -

First Release

I have tagged my repository as V1.0 so that it can be used to start the journey at any point of time. This release is very-very basic, I will continue with my journey and keep releasing with additional features.
