NetSuite SDF Tool

TypeScript, from the first file

SuiteCloud can already make a project – suitecloud project:create -i – but what it makes is JavaScript.

Writing SuiteScript in TypeScript means building the rest yourself: a layout both the compiler and SDF understand, a project.json, a build config that turns TypeScript into the SuiteScript NetSuite runs, and files named the way the rest of the account is named. None of it is the work. nsx does that part, so the first thing you write is the script.

Four commands

1. Set it up once

   Your prefixes, your naming, where things go. Asked once and remembered.

   $ nsx setup

2. Make a project

   A TypeScript project – the directories, the config and the build – laid out the way the account expects it.

   $ nsx create

3. Add a file

   A new TypeScript file, named to your format, with the build config updated to know about it. nsx template drops in a function you have written before.

   $ nsx newfile
   $ nsx template

4. Build and upload

   Compiles the TypeScript and puts it in the File Cabinet through SuiteCloud. nsx build bun if you would rather use bun.

   $ nsx build
   → File Cabinet
