apex-rollup VS NebulaLogger

While I agree that DLRS has its problems (fewer problems today than there used to be but still has problems), I don't think Flows are (yet) up to the task enough for me to recommend them generally for roll-up needs. I am very pro Flow and can't wait for the day I can say that they are. If I were to make a recommendation today it would be apex-rollup: https://github.com/jamessimone/apex-rollup

👋 hi - author of Apex Rollup here, which I would highly encourage you to use (or any other rollup library) rather than trying to roll your own, as there a number of edge cases that your code doesn't take into account like:

Check out apex rollup, https://github.com/jamessimone/apex-rollup

There's also a (brief, but with extremely detailed picture) section on Rollup Architecture in the Github wiki for the project

Apex-rollup (was harder for me to configure, but it could be just me; easier on the system): https://github.com/jamessimone/apex-rollup

Instead of DLRS, you may want to look at implementing Apex Rollup - it’s fairly simple to set up and is more lightweight.

If you are looking for something that is considerably more lightweight in comparison to DLRS (and contains well-annotated, object-oriented code ...), I will definitely plug apex rollup

In this first episode James Simone, the author of several great open source libraries as well as the Joys of Apex blog has created a tutorial on how to leverage his new Rollup library. This allows you to, for free, calculate Rollup summaries on a variety of relationship types (Lookup, external ids, etc). In the tutorial video he shows you how to leverage Rollup in an auto-launched flow, record trigger flow and from within triggers. Hopefully this makes it super easy for users to leverage this in their orgs.

You should look at Nebula Logger

No problem, it’s hard to keep abreast of all the platform changes and that event was only introduced a few releases ago. I’m the author of the async-failure-additions plugin that I was mentioning for Nebula, it’s a good intro to working with batch apex error events: https://github.com/jongpie/NebulaLogger/tree/main/nebula-logger/plugins/async-failure-additions

I wouldn’t say that there are commonly used frameworks/apps, in the same way that you’re talking about, but Salesforce is getting better at giving people ways to distribute and reuse code - look into Second Generation Unmanaged Packages. A great example of this (which is widely used in the community, and internally within Salesforce as well) is Nebula Logger: https://github.com/jongpie/NebulaLogger

Nebula logger has a managed version with a 1 click install on github here: https://github.com/jongpie/NebulaLogger

You might want to look into a logging solution like nebula logger. https://github.com/jongpie/NebulaLogger

Hey everyone! This week I've created a tutorial on how to use the excellent open source library Nebula Logger! If you've ever looked at a Salesforce debug log(s) and though, "I wish this didn't suck so much" Nebula Logger will solve your problems!

A free logger framework already addresses both approaches and is highly scalable. Check this out before you embark on the journey of building something on your own.
