Salesforce Platform Event Subscriber

A simple application that:

• Uses the Salesforce Metadata API to grab all Platform Event types,
• Subscribes to them all
• Presents a web page that dynamically updates with the content of each event as it's fired. shows each event as it is fired.

1. Copy .env.demo to .env
2. Edit .env and set the following variables:
   • For SF_CLIENT_ID, enter the Consumer Key of your Salesforce Connected App
   • For SF_CLIENT_SECRET, enter the Consumer Secret of your Salesforce Connected App
   • For SF_USER_NAME, enter the the username of your Salesforce user
   • For SF_USER_PASSWORD, enter the the password of your Salesforce user
   • Set REDIRECT_URL to the URL of the app itself
3. Create a Connected App in Salesforce, with OAuth pointing to this app's URL like so http://localhost:7000/oauth/_callback

Start the app:

heroku local:start -p 7000
