Augmenting Salesforce CLI Commands for VS Code

I have been working with the Salesforce Extension Pack for VS Code and I have been mostly pleased with the capabilities.  On my current project, I find myself constantly switching between orgs.  I was tired of typing in the command to list out the current org and the command to switch the current org.  

There is a great hotkey VS Code extension called terminal-command-keys that allows you to create a hotkey that executes a terminal command.  The Salesforce CLI with hotkeys; what could be better!

Here are the steps to use

1. Install the VS Code extension terminal-command-keys
2. Edit your keybindings.json by pressing Ctrl-Shift-P on the PC or Command-Shift-P on the Mac.  Edit the file on the right

Add a command to list all your orgs by pressing Ctrl-Shift-l

    {

    "key" : "ctrl+shift+l",

    "command": "terminalCommandKeys.run",

    "args" :

        {

            "cmd": "sfdx force:org:list",

            "saveAllFiles": false

        }

    },

Add a command to upload the current file by pressing Ctrl-Shift-u

    {

        "key": "ctrl+shift+u",

        "command": "terminalCommandKeys.run",

        "args": {

            "cmd": "sfdx force:source:deploy --sourcepath  ${file} --loglevel fatal",

            "newTerminal": false,

            "saveAllFiles": true,

            "showTerminal": true

        }

    },

Add a command to switch to your development org.  In my case, the alias is BossSand. Replace with the alias for your org.

    {

        "key" : "ctrl+shift+d",

        "command": "terminalCommandKeys.run",

        "args" :

        {

            "cmd": "sfdx force:config:set defaultusername=BossSand",

            "saveAllFiles": false

        }

    },

Add a command to switch to your test org.  In my case the alias is BossStage. Replace with the alias for your org.

    {

        "key" : "ctrl+shift+v",

        "command": "terminalCommandKeys.run",

        "args" :

        {

            "cmd": "sfdx force:config:set defaultusername=BossStage",

            "saveAllFiles": false

        }   

    }
