how to identify if netsuite environment is using sdk tools

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To identify if a NetSuite environment is using SDK tools, you can look for the presence of certain files or directories that are typically associated with SDK tools. For example, the SuiteCloud Development Framework (SDF) is a popular SDK tool used in NetSuite. If SDF is being used, you would typically see a

.sdfcli.json

file in the project root directory. This file is used to store SDF CLI configuration settings. Additionally, you can check for the presence of certain commands in the scripts used in the environment. For instance, if you see commands like

sdfcli importobjects

,

sdfcli deploy

,

sdfcli validate

, etc., in the scripts, it's a good indication that SDF is being used. Another way to identify the use of SDK tools is by checking the project's dependencies. If the project is using Node.js, you can check the

package.json

file for dependencies related to NetSuite SDK tools. For example, if you see

netsuite-sdk

or

netsuite-suitetalk-sdk

listed in the dependencies, it's a clear sign that SDK tools are being used. Please note that these are general methods and may not cover all possible SDK tools or configurations. The best way to confirm the use of SDK tools would be to ask the developers or administrators of the NetSuite environment. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
