Run Anonymous APEX in Batch style

This is useful when you need to run a Anonymous APEX but similar to Batch Jobs but don't want to write a full APEX class and handle it ? This will help.

How it works:

This uses a simple shell script where you provide the number of seconds it needs to sleep and number of time the APEX script needs to be executed and vola!! That's it.

How to run it

1. A org is authenticated using the Salesforce CLI.

2. Download the repo using Git Clone or the shell script

3. Give permission to execute the shell script using chmod +x script.sh for MAC or Linux for Windows using the Powershell Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned -Scope CurrentUser

4. You need to have you APEX script that does the DML in the ./apex folder. Please refer to test.apex as sample.

5. Update the Sheel variables with your prefrences

   1. Num of Runs
   2. Sleep Timer
   3. Org Alias
   4. Script Path ( This is relative to folder)

6. Execute the script using the terminal ./runapexfile.sh
