Add, edit, delete apex classes, visualforce pages, objects, and fields from profile metadata files
npm install profile-modifier-pluginA plugin for Salesforce DX CLI that provides ability to add, edit, and remove Apex Classes, Visualforce Pages, Objects, and Fields from profiles within SFDX projects (an sfdx-project.json file in the root of the project directory is required).
The motivation for the development of this plugin came from project work frequently requiring these four (4) pieces of metadata to be added to, edited in, and removed from multiple profiles within a project space. Manually editing the profile metadata to accomplish this was time consuming, error prone, and a drag to say the least.
This plugin could be expanded to accommodate other types of profile metadata such as user permissions, tab visibilities and record type accesses.
Install plugin using command : sfdx plugins:install profile-modifier-plugin
