INTRODUCTION
The "Salesforce Autosave" chrome extension is a developer tool to autosave and recover code in Apex Classes, Triggers, Visualforce Pages and Components from save failure because of organization lock from deployments, internet unavailability and/or host of other reasons that result in code loss.
Get over CTRL + A, CTRL + C and CTRL + S approach! Now the extension will autosave the code in the background while you work on classes, triggers, pages or components without having to worry about loss of code.
The default autosave time is set to 60 seconds. It allows user to set custom autosave time (between 5 to 1800 seconds)
FEATURES :
Salesforce Autosave has the below features :
- Autosave the code for Class/Trigger/Page/Component in the extension at default setting of 60 seconds.
- Autosave the code for Class/Trigger/Page/Component in the extension on Save/QuickSave/Logout events on Salesforce edit page.
- Recover autosaved code for Class/Trigger/Page/Component from the extension.
- Work in online/offline mode and Autosave the code in the extension.
HOW TO AUTOSAVE CODE :
The extension works only on edit page of Apex classes, triggers, VF Pages and Components. On installing the extension, you will be able to see Salesforce ARC icon right beside the address bar or in the addon toolbar.
After installation of the extension, the edit page on Apex class, triggers, VF pages and components will display an additional section below the API name of class/trigger/page/component indicating the autosave status. This text indicates the time left before next autosave (in seconds), status of autosave (success/failure) and warning messages.
The extension does not validate the code syntax correctness, it commits the as-is code to the extension.
HOW TO RECOVER CODE
The Autosaved data for any Class/Trigger/Page/Component is maintained in the extension across browsing sessions. The autosaved data is recoverable directly in the edit page code editor of any class/trigger/page/component by clicking on the Salesforce Autosave extension icon besides the address bar or the addon toolbar (in red borders, refer screenshot) . If no autosaved data is available, it gives an alert message indicating the same.
