0.3.6

Minor Changes

ed6baab66: - Deprecating the scaffolder.${provider}.token auth duplication and favoring integrations.${provider} instead. If you receive deprecation warnings your config should change like the following:
```
scaffolder:
  github:
    token:
      $env: GITHUB_TOKEN
    visibility: public
```
To something that looks like this:
```
integration:
  github:
    - host: github.com
      token:
        $env: GITHUB_TOKEN
scaffolder:
  github:
    visibility: public
```
You can also configure multiple different hosts under the integration config like the following:
```
integration:
  github:
    - host: github.com
      token:
        $env: GITHUB_TOKEN
    - host: ghe.mycompany.com
      token:
        $env: GITHUB_ENTERPRISE_TOKEN
```
This of course is the case for all the providers respectively.
- Adding support for cross provider scaffolding, you can now create repositories in for example Bitbucket using a template residing in GitHub.
- Fix GitLab scaffolding so that it returns a catalogInfoUrl which automatically imports the project into the catalog.
- The Store Path field on the scaffolder frontend has now changed so that you require the full URL to the desired destination repository.
backstage/new-repository would become https://github.com/backstage/new-repository if provider was GitHub for example.

Patch Changes

a284f5bc1: Due to a package name change from @kyma-project/asyncapi-react to @asyncapi/react-component the jest configuration in the root package.json has to be updated:
```
   "jest": {
     "transformModules": [
-      "@kyma-project/asyncapi-react
+      "@asyncapi/react-component"
     ]
   }
```

89278acab: Migrate to using FlatRoutes from @backstage/core for the root app routes.

This is the first step in migrating applications as mentioned here: https://backstage.io/docs/plugins/composability#porting-existing-apps.

To apply this change to an existing app, switch out the Routes component from react-router to FlatRoutes from @backstage/core. This also allows you to remove any /* suffixes on the route paths. For example:

import {
   OAuthRequestDialog,
   SidebarPage,
   createRouteRef,
+  FlatRoutes,
 } from '@backstage/core';
 import { AppSidebar } from './sidebar';
-import { Route, Routes, Navigate } from 'react-router';
+import { Route, Navigate } from 'react-router';
 import { Router as CatalogRouter } from '@backstage/plugin-catalog';
...
         <AppSidebar />
-        <Routes>
+        <FlatRoutes>
...
           <Route
-            path="/catalog/*"
+            path="/catalog"
             element={<CatalogRouter EntityPage={EntityPage} />}
           />
-          <Route path="/docs/*" element={<DocsRouter />} />
+          <Route path="/docs" element={<DocsRouter />} />
...
           <Route path="/settings" element={<SettingsRouter />} />
-        </Routes>
+        </FlatRoutes>
       </SidebarPage>

26d3b24f3: fix routing and config for user-settings plugin

To make the corresponding change in your local app, add the following in your App.tsx

import { Router as SettingsRouter } from '@backstage/plugin-user-settings';
...
<Route path="/settings" element={<SettingsRouter />} />

and the following to your plugins.ts:

export { plugin as UserSettings } from '@backstage/plugin-user-settings';

92dbbcedd: Add *-credentials.yaml to gitignore to prevent accidental commits of sensitive credential information.

To apply this change to an existing installation, add these lines to your .gitignore
```
# Sensitive credentials
*-credentials.yaml
```

d176671d1: use fromConfig for all scaffolder helpers, and use the url protocol for app-config location entries.

To apply this change to your local installation, replace the contents of your packages/backend/src/plugins/scaffolder.ts with the following contents:

import {
  CookieCutter,
  createRouter,
  Preparers,
  Publishers,
  CreateReactAppTemplater,
  Templaters,
  CatalogEntityClient,
} from '@backstage/plugin-scaffolder-backend';
import { SingleHostDiscovery } from '@backstage/backend-common';
import type { PluginEnvironment } from '../types';
import Docker from 'dockerode';

export default async function createPlugin({
  logger,
  config,
}: PluginEnvironment) {
  const cookiecutterTemplater = new CookieCutter();
  const craTemplater = new CreateReactAppTemplater();
  const templaters = new Templaters();
  templaters.register('cookiecutter', cookiecutterTemplater);
  templaters.register('cra', craTemplater);

  const preparers = await Preparers.fromConfig(config, { logger });
  const publishers = await Publishers.fromConfig(config, { logger });

  const dockerClient = new Docker();

  const discovery = SingleHostDiscovery.fromConfig(config);
  const entityClient = new CatalogEntityClient({ discovery });

  return await createRouter({
    preparers,
    templaters,
    publishers,
    logger,
    config,
    dockerClient,
    entityClient,
  });
}

This will ensure that the scaffolder-backend package can add handlers for the url protocol which is becoming the standard when registering entities in the catalog

9d1d1138e: Ensured that versions bumps of packages used in the app template trigger a release of this package when needed.
db05f7a35: Remove the @types/helmet dev dependency from the app template. This dependency is now unused as the package helmet brings its own types.

To update your existing app, simply remove the @types/helmet dependency from the package.json of your backend package.

-    "sqlite3": "^4.2.0",
+    "sqlite3": "^5.0.0",
     "winston": "^3.2.1"
```
Note that the sqlite3 dependency may not be preset if you chose to use PostgreSQL when creating the app.
8d68e4cdc: Removed the Circle CI sidebar item, since the target page does not exist.

To apply this change to an existing app, remove "CircleCI" sidebar item from packages/app/src/sidebar.tsx, and the BuildIcon import if it is unused.
1773a5182: Removed lighthouse plugin from the default set up plugins, as it requires a separate Backend to function.

To apply this change to an existing app, remove the following:
1. The lighthouse block from app-config.yaml.

3. The @backstage/plugin-lighthouse re-export from packages/app/src/plugins.ts.
4. The Lighthouse sidebar item from packages/app/src/sidebar.tsx, and the RuleIcon import if it is unused.

0.3.1

Patch Changes

4e0e3b1bf: Add missing yarn clean for app.

For users with existing Backstage installations, add the following under the scripts section in packages/app/package.json, after the "lint" entry:
```
"clean": "backstage-cli clean",
```
This will add the missing yarn clean for the generated frontend.
352a6581f: Added "start-backend" script to root package.json.

To apply this change to an existing app, add the following script to the root package.json:
```
"start-backend": "yarn workspace backend start"
```

0.3.0

Minor Changes

0101c7a16: Add search plugin to default template for CLI created apps

Patch Changes

a8573e53b: techdocs-backend: Simplified file, removing individual preparers and generators. techdocs-backend: UrlReader is now available to use in preparers.

In your Backstage app, packages/backend/plugins/techdocs.ts file has now been simplified, to remove registering individual preparers and generators.

Please update the file when upgrading the version of @backstage/plugin-techdocs-backend package.
```
const preparers = await Preparers.fromConfig(config, {
  logger,
  reader,
});

const generators = await Generators.fromConfig(config, {
  logger,
});

const publisher = await Publisher.fromConfig(config, {
  logger,
  discovery,
});
```
You should be able to remove unnecessary imports, and just do
```
import {
  createRouter,
  Preparers,
  Generators,
  Publisher,
} from '@backstage/plugin-techdocs-backend';
```

0.2.5

Patch Changes

2783ec018: In the techdocs-backend plugin (packages/backend/src/plugins/techdocs.ts), create a publisher using
```
  const publisher = Publisher.fromConfig(config, logger, discovery);
```
instead of
```
  const publisher = new LocalPublish(logger, discovery);
```
An instance of publisher can either be a local filesystem publisher or a Google Cloud Storage publisher.

Read more about the configs here https://backstage.io/docs/features/techdocs/configuration (You will also have to update techdocs.storage.type to local or googleGcs. And techdocs.builder to either local or external.)

0.2.4

Patch Changes

94348441e: Add "files": ["dist"] to both app and backend packages. This ensures that packaged versions of these packages do not contain unnecessary files.

To apply this change to an existing app, add the following to packages/app/package.json and packages/backend/package.json:
```
  "files": [
    "dist"
  ]
```

cb5fc4b29: Adjust template to the latest changes in the api-docs plugin.

Template Changes

1e22f8e0b: Unify dockerode library and type dependency versions

0.2.3

Patch Changes

68fdc3a9f: Optimized the yarn install step in the backend Dockerfile.

To apply these changes to an existing app, make the following changes to packages/backend/Dockerfile:

Replace the RUN yarn install ... line with the following:
```
RUN yarn install --frozen-lockfile --production --network-timeout 300000 && rm -rf "$(yarn cache dir)"
```
4a655c89d: Removed "resolutions" entry for esbuild in the root package.json in order to use the version specified by @backstage/cli.

To apply this change to an existing app, remove the following from your root package.json:
```
"resolutions": {
  "esbuild": "0.6.3"
},
```
ea475893d: Add API docs plugin to new apps being created through the CLI.

0.2.2

Patch Changes

7d7abd50c: Add app-backend as a backend plugin, and make a single docker build of the backend the default way to deploy backstage.

Note that the app-backend currently only is a solution for deployments of the app, it's not a dev server and is not intended for local development.

Template changes

As a part of installing the app-backend plugin, the below changes where made. The changes are grouped into two steps, installing the plugin, and updating the Docker build and configuration.

Installing the app-backend plugin in the backend

First, install the @backstage/plugin-app-backend plugin package in your backend. These changes where made for v0.3.0 of the plugin, and the installation process might change in the future. Run the following from the root of the repo:
```
cd packages/backend
yarn add @backstage/plugin-app-backend
```
For the app-backend to get access to the static content in the frontend we also need to add the local app package as a dependency. Add the following to your "dependencies" in packages/backend/package.json, assuming your app package is still named app and on version 0.0.0:
```
"app": "0.0.0",
```
Don't worry, this will not cause your entire frontend dependency tree to be added to the app, just double check that packages/app/package.json has a "bundled": true field at top-level. This signals to the backend build process that the package is bundled and that no transitive dependencies should be included.

Next, create packages/backend/src/plugins/app.ts with the following:
```
import { createRouter } from '@backstage/plugin-app-backend';
import { PluginEnvironment } from '../types';

export default async function createPlugin({
  logger,
  config,
}: PluginEnvironment) {
  return await createRouter({
    logger,
    config,
    appPackageName: 'app',
  });
}
```
In packages/backend/src/index.ts, make the following changes:

Add an import for the newly created plugin setup file:
```
import app from './plugins/app';
```
Setup the following plugin env.
```
const appEnv = useHotMemoize(module, () => createEnv('app'));
```
Change service builder setup to include the app plugin as follows. Note that the app plugin is not installed on the /api route with most other plugins.
```
const service = createServiceBuilder(module)
  .loadConfig(config)
  .addRouter('/api', apiRouter)
  .addRouter('', await app(appEnv));
```
You should now have the app-backend plugin installed in your backend, ready to serve the frontend bundle!

Docker build setup

Since the backend image is now the only one needed for a simple Backstage deployment, the image tag name in the build-image script inside packages/backend/package.json was changed to the following:
```
"build-image": "backstage-cli backend:build-image --build --tag backstage",
```
For convenience, a build-image script was also added to the root package.json with the following:
```
"build-image": "yarn workspace backend build-image",
```
In the root of the repo, a new app-config.production.yaml file was added. This is used to set the appropriate app.baseUrl now that the frontend is served directly by the backend in the production deployment. It has the following contents:
```
app:
  # Should be the same as backend.baseUrl when using the `app-backend` plugin
  baseUrl: http://localhost:7000

backend:
  baseUrl: http://localhost:7000
  listen:
    port: 7000
```
In order to load in the new configuration at runtime, the command in the Dockerfile at the repo root was changed to the following:
```
CMD ["node", "packages/backend", "--config", "app-config.yaml", "--config", "app-config.production.yaml"]
```

6d29605db: Change the default backend plugin mount point to /api
5249594c5: Add service discovery interface and implement for single host deployments

Fixes #1847, #2596

Went with an interface similar to the frontend DiscoveryApi, since it's dead simple but still provides a lot of flexibility in the implementation.

Also ended up with two different methods, one for internal endpoint discovery and one for external. The two use-cases are explained a bit more in the docs, but basically it's service-to-service vs callback URLs.

This did get me thinking about uniqueness and that we're heading towards a global namespace for backend plugin IDs. That's probably fine, but if we're happy with that we should leverage it a bit more to simplify the backend setup. For example we'd have each plugin provide its own ID and not manually mount on paths in the backend.

Draft until we're happy with the implementation, then I can add more docs and changelog entry. Also didn't go on a thorough hunt for places where discovery can be used, but I don't think there are many since it's been pretty awkward to do service-to-service communication.

f00ca3cb8: Auto-create plugin databases

Relates to #1598.

This creates databases for plugins before handing off control to plugins.

The list of plugins currently need to be hard-coded depending on the installed plugins. A later PR will properly refactor the code to provide a factory pattern where plugins specify what they need, and Knex instances will be provided based on the input.
6d97d2d6f: The InfoCard variant 'height100' is deprecated. Use variant 'gridItem' instead.

When the InfoCard is displayed as a grid item within a grid, you may want items to have the same height for all items. Set to the 'gridItem' variant to display the InfoCard with full height suitable for Grid: <InfoCard variant="gridItem">...</InfoCard>

Changed the InfoCards in '@backstage/plugin-github-actions', '@backstage/plugin-jenkins', '@backstage/plugin-lighthouse' to pass an optional variant to the corresponding card of the plugin.

As a result the overview content of the EntityPage shows cards with full height suitable for Grid.
7aff112af: The default mount point for backend plugins have been changed to /api. These changes are done in the backend package itself, so it is recommended that you sync up existing backend packages with this new pattern.

8c2b76e45: BREAKING CHANGE

The existing loading of additional config files like app-config.development.yaml using APP_ENV or NODE_ENV has been removed. Instead, the CLI and backend process now accept one or more --config flags to load config files.

Without passing any flags, app-config.yaml and, if it exists, app-config.local.yaml will be loaded. If passing any --config <path> flags, only those files will be loaded, NOT the default app-config.yaml one.

The old behaviour of for example APP_ENV=development can be replicated using the following flags:
```
--config ../../app-config.yaml --config ../../app-config.development.yaml
```

5a920c6e4: Updated naming of environment variables. New pattern [NAME]_TOKEN for GitHub, GitLab, Azure & GitHub Enterprise access tokens.

Detail:

Previously we have to export same token for both, catalog & scaffolder

export GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN=foo
export GITHUB_PRIVATE_TOKEN=foo

with latest changes, only single export is sufficient.

export GITHUB_TOKEN=foo
export GITLAB_TOKEN=foo
export GHE_TOKEN=foo
export AZURE_TOKEN=foo

list:

Old name	New name
GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN	GITHUB_TOKEN
GITHUB_PRIVATE_TOKEN	GITHUB_TOKEN
GITLAB_ACCESS_TOKEN	GITLAB_TOKEN
GITLAB_PRIVATE_TOKEN	GITLAB_TOKEN
AZURE_PRIVATE_TOKEN	AZURE_TOKEN
GHE_PRIVATE_TOKEN	GHE_TOKEN
