10/19/2020, 10:30 PMQuestion for VSCode users: What do you use for uploading SuiteScripts to NetSuite? I'm trying to install the NetSuiteSDF extension right now and having trouble with the instructions so I'm wondering if anyone else has experience with this or other methods.

10/19/2020, 10:44 PM@TJ Tyrrell wrote the package script for that. I don’t know if he still maintains it

10/19/2020, 10:45 PMah ok, thanks
Kris Wood
10/19/2020, 10:45 PMI'm reading the chocolatey installation instructions and it looks like it'll need admin access which I don't have.

chris
10/19/2020, 10:45 PMYou just need to install the sdfcli jar file then symlink it so that it’s globally available and the plug-in can find it

10/19/2020, 10:46 PMSwitching from independent consulting to working for a global corporation makes this sort of thing a lot harder. >.<
Kris Wood
10/19/2020, 10:46 PMOk I'll try that, thanks!

10/19/2020, 10:50 PMIt's awesome to see developers actually participating in the community. Keep up the great work! 😄

10/19/2020, 10:54 PMGot chocolatey installing using the non-admin PowerShell instructions. That was relatively painless. 🙂

10/19/2020, 10:55 PMNow to hunt down the package name for @TJ Tyrrell's sdfcli

10/19/2020, 10:55 PMIf not you can overwrite it after you install it. Should last a few years

Kris Wood
10/19/2020, 10:55 PMk thanks!
Kris Wood
10/19/2020, 11:08 PMFirst step in @TJ Tyrrell’s instructions is to install the Eclipse SDF plugin. I don't have Eclipse installed. Is this necessary? Any ideas where I can download the SDF jar files from?
