What is jsforce?

The jsforce npm package is a powerful library for interacting with Salesforce from Node.js. It provides a comprehensive set of tools for working with Salesforce's REST API, SOAP API, Bulk API, and more. This makes it an excellent choice for developers looking to integrate Salesforce with their Node.js applications.

What are jsforce's main functionalities?

Authentication

This feature allows you to authenticate with Salesforce using a username, password, and security token. Once authenticated, you can perform various operations on Salesforce data.

const jsforce = require('jsforce');
const conn = new jsforce.Connection();
conn.login('username@example.com', 'password+securityToken', function(err, userInfo) {
  if (err) { return console.error(err); }
  console.log('User ID: ' + userInfo.id);
  console.log('Org ID: ' + userInfo.organizationId);
});

Querying Data

This feature allows you to query Salesforce data using SOQL (Salesforce Object Query Language). The example demonstrates how to fetch Account records.

const jsforce = require('jsforce');
const conn = new jsforce.Connection();
conn.login('username@example.com', 'password+securityToken', function(err, userInfo) {
  if (err) { return console.error(err); }
  conn.query('SELECT Id, Name FROM Account', function(err, result) {
    if (err) { return console.error(err); }
    console.log('Total records: ' + result.totalSize);
    console.log('Fetched records: ' + result.records.length);
  });
});

CRUD Operations

This feature allows you to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on Salesforce objects. The example shows how to create a new Account record.

const jsforce = require('jsforce');
const conn = new jsforce.Connection();
conn.login('username@example.com', 'password+securityToken', function(err, userInfo) {
  if (err) { return console.error(err); }
  conn.sobject('Account').create({ Name: 'New Account' }, function(err, ret) {
    if (err || !ret.success) { return console.error(err, ret); }
    console.log('Created record id: ' + ret.id);
  });
});

Bulk API

This feature allows you to perform bulk operations on Salesforce data, which is useful for handling large volumes of records efficiently. The example demonstrates how to insert multiple Account records using the Bulk API.

const jsforce = require('jsforce');
const conn = new jsforce.Connection();
conn.login('username@example.com', 'password+securityToken', function(err, userInfo) {
  if (err) { return console.error(err); }
  const records = [{ Name: 'Account 1' }, { Name: 'Account 2' }];
  conn.bulk.load('Account', 'insert', records, function(err, rets) {
    if (err) { return console.error(err); }
    for (let i = 0; i < rets.length; i++) {
      if (rets[i].success) {
        console.log('Created record id: ' + rets[i].id);
      } else {
        console.log('Error: ' + rets[i].errors.join(', '));
      }
    }
  });
});
