Chapter 7. Dynamic plugins

7.1. Overview of dynamic plugins

7.1.1. About dynamic plugins

A dynamic plugin allows you to add custom pages and other extensions to your interface at runtime. The ConsolePlugin custom resource registers plugins with the console, and a cluster administrator enables plugins in the console-operator configuration.

Important

Creating a dynamic plugin is a Technology Preview feature only. Technology Preview features are not supported with Red Hat production service level agreements (SLAs) and might not be functionally complete. Red Hat does not recommend using them in production. These features provide early access to upcoming product features, enabling customers to test functionality and provide feedback during the development process.

For more information about the support scope of Red Hat Technology Preview features, see Technology Preview Features Support Scope.

7.1.2. Key features

A dynamic plugin allows you to make the following customizations to the OpenShift Container Platform experience:

Add custom pages.
Add perspectives beyond administrator and developer.
Add navigation items.
Add tabs and actions to resource pages.

7.1.3. General guidelines

When creating your plugin, follow these general guidelines:

Node.js and yarn are required to build and run your plugin.
Prefix your CSS class names with your plugin name to avoid collisions. For example, my-plugin__heading and my-plugin_\_icon.
Maintain a consistent look, feel, and behavior with other console pages.
Follow react-i18next localization guidelines when creating your plugin. You can use the useTranslation hook like the one in the following example:
```
conster Header: React.FC = () => {
  const { t } = useTranslation('plugin__console-demo-plugin');
  return <h1>{t('Hello, World!')}</h1>;
};
```
Avoid selectors that could affect markup outside of your plugin’s components, such as element selectors. These are not APIs and are subject to change. Using them might break your plugin.

PatternFly 4 guidelines

When creating your plugin, follow these guidelines for using PatternFly:

Use PatternFly4 components and PatternFly CSS variables. Core PatternFly components are available through the SDK. Using PatternFly components and variables help your plugin look consistent in future console versions.
Make your plugin accessible by following PatternFly’s accessibility fundamentals.
Avoid using other CSS libraries such as Bootstrap or Tailwind. They can conflict with PatternFly and will not match the console look and feel.

7.2. Getting started with dynamic plugins

To get started using the dynamic plugin, you must set up your environment to write a new OpenShift Container Platform dynamic plugin. For an example of how to write a new plugin, see Adding a tab to the pods page.

7.2.1. Dynamic plugin development

You can run the plugin using a local development environment. The OpenShift Container Platform web console runs in a container connected to the cluster you have logged into.

Prerequisites

You must have an OpenShift cluster running.
You must have the OpenShift CLI (oc) installed.
You must have yarn installed.
You must have Docker v3.2.0 or newer or Podman installed and running.

Procedure

In your terminal, run the following command to install the dependencies for your plugin using Yarn.
```
$ yarn install
```
After installing, run the following command to start Yarn.
```
$ yarn run start
```
In another terminal window, login to the OpenShift Container Platform through the CLI.
```
$ oc login
```
Run the OpenShift Container Platform web console in a container connected to the cluster you have logged into by running the following command:
```
$ yarn run start-console
```

Verification

Visit localhost:9000 to view the running plugin. Inspect the value of window.SERVER_FLAGS.consolePlugins to see the list of plugins that load at runtime.

7.3. Deploy your plugin on a cluster

You can deploy the plugin to a OpenShift Container Platform cluster.

7.3.1. Build an image with Docker

To deploy your plugin on a cluster, you need to build an image and push it to an image registry.

Procedure

Build the image with the following command:

$ docker build -t quay.io/my-repositroy/my-plugin:latest .

Optional: If you want to test your image, run the following command:

$ docker run -it --rm -d -p 9001:80 quay.io/my-repository/my-plugin:latest

Push the image by running the following command:

$ docker push quay.io/my-repository/my-plugin:latest

7.3.2. Deploy your plugin on a cluster

After pushing an image with your changes to a registry, you can deploy the plugin to a cluster.

Procedure

Install a Helm chart with the name of the plugin as the Helm release name into a new namespace or an existing namespace as specified by the -n command-line option. Provide the location of the image within the plugin.image parameter by using the following command:
```
$ helm upgrade -i  my-plugin charts/openshift-console-plugin -n my-plugin-namespace --create-namespace --set plugin.image=my-plugin-image-location
```
Where:
n <my-plugin-namespace>
Specifies an existing namespace to deploy your plugin into.
--create-namespace
Optional: If deploying to a new namespace, use this parameter.
--set plugin.image=my-plugin-image-location
Specifies the location of the image within the plugin.image parameter.
Optional: You can specify any additional parameters by using the set of supported parameters in the charts/openshift-console-plugin/values.yaml file.

          memory: 50Mi

Verification

You can see the list of the enabled plugins on the Overview page or by navigating from Administration Cluster Settings Configuration Console operator.openshift.io Console plugins.

Note

It can take a few minutes for the new plugin configuration to appear. If you do not see your plugin, you might need to refresh your browser if the plugin was recently enabled. If you receive any errors at runtime, check the JS console in browser developer tools to look for any errors in your plugin code.

7.3.3. Disabling your plugin in the browser

Console users can use the disable-plugins query parameter to disable specific or all dynamic plugins that would normally get loaded at run-time.

Procedure

To disable a specific plugin(s), remove the plugin you want to disable from the comma-separated list of plugin names.
To disable all plugins, leave an empty string in the disable-plugins query parameter.

Note

Cluster administrators can disable plugins in the Cluster Settings page of the web console

7.4. Dynamic plugin example

Before working through the example, verify that the plugin is working by following the steps in Dynamic plugin development.

7.4.1. Adding a tab to the pods page

There are different customizations you can make to the OpenShift Container Platform web console. Set up your environment to write a new OpenShift Console dynamic plugin, and add a tab to the Pod details page as an example extension to your plugin.

Note

The OpenShift Container Platform web console runs in a container connected to the cluster you have logged into. See "Dynamic plugin development" for information to test the plugin before creating your own.

Prerequisites

Ensure you have Node.js installed.
Ensure you have yarn installed.

Procedure

In a new tab, open the console-plugin-template repository, which contains a template for creating plugins in a new tab.
Important
Custom plugin code is not supported by Red Hat. Only Cooperative community support is available for your plugin.
Create a GitHub repository for the template by clicking Use this template Create new repository.
Rename the new repository with the name of your plugin.
Clone the new repository to your local machine so you can edit the code.

Edit the package.json file by adding your plugin’s metadata to the consolePlugin declaration. For example:

"consolePlugin": {
  "name": "my-plugin", 1
  "version": "0.0.1", 2
  "displayName": "My Plugin", 3
  "description": "Enjoy this shiny, new console plugin!", 4
  "exposedModules": {
    "ExamplePage": "./components/ExamplePage"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "@console/pluginAPI": "/*"
  }
}

1: Update the name of your plugin.
2: Update the version.
3: Update the display name for your plugin.
4: Update the description with a synopsis about your plugin.

Add the following to the console-extensions.json file:

{
  "type": "console.tab/horizontalNav",
  "properties": {
    "page": {
      "name": "Example Tab",
      "href": "example"
    },
    "model": {
      "group": "core",
      "version": "v1",
      "kind": "Pod"
    },
    "component": { "$codeRef": "ExampleTab" }
  }
}

Edit the package.json file to include the following changes:

        "exposedModules": {
            "ExamplePage": "./components/ExamplePage",
            "ExampleTab": "./components/ExampleTab"
        }

Write a message to display on a new custom tab on the Pods page by creating a new file src/components/ExampleTab.tsx and adding the following script:

import * as React from 'react';

export default function ExampleTab() {
    return (
        <p>This is a custom tab added to a resource using a dynamic plugin.</p>
    );
}

Install a Helm chart with the name of the plugin as the Helm release name into a new namespace or an existing namespace as specified by the -n command-line option and provide the location of the image within the plugin.image parameter to deploy your plugin on a cluster by using the following command:
```
$ helm upgrade -i  my-plugin charts/openshift-console-plugin -n my-plugin-namespace --create-namespace --set plugin.image=my-plugin-image-location
```
Note
For more information on deploying your plugin on a cluster, see "Deploy your plugin on a cluster".

Verification

Visit the Pod page to view the added tab.

7.5.2. Troubleshooting your dynamic plugin

Refer to this list of troubleshooting tips if you run into issues loading your plugin.

Verify that you have enabled your plugin in the console Operator configuration and your plugin name is the output by running the following command:
```
$ oc get console.operator.openshift.io cluster -o jsonpath='{.spec.plugins}'
```
- Verify the enabled plugins on the status card of the Overview page in the Administrator perspective. You must refresh your browser if the plugin was recently enabled.
Verify your plugin service is healthy by:
- Verifying your plugin pod status is running and your containers are ready.
- Verifying the service label selector matches the pod and the target port is correct.
- Using the curl command with the plugin-manifest.json from the service in a terminal on the console pod or another pod on the cluster.
Verify your ConsolePlugin resource name (consolePlugin.name) matches the plugin name used in package.json.
Verify your service name, namespace, port, and path are declared correctly in the ConsolePlugin resource.
Verify your plugin service uses HTTPS and service serving certificates.
Verify any certificates or connection errors in the console pod logs.
Verify the feature flag your plugin relies on is not disabled.
Verify your plugin does not have any consolePlugin.dependencies in package.json that are not met.
- This can include console version dependencies or dependencies on other plugins. Filter the JS console in your browser for your plugin’s name to see messages that are logged.
Verify there are no typographical errors in the navigation extension perspective or section IDs.
- Your plugin might be loaded, but navigation items can be missing if IDs are incorrect. Try navigating to a plugin page directly by editing the URL.
Verify there are no network policies that are blocking traffic from the console pod to your plugin service.
- If necessary, adjust network policies to allow console pods in the openshift-console namespace to make requests to your service.
Verify the list of dynamic plugins to be loaded in your browser in the Console tab of the developer tools browser.
- Evaluate window.SERVER_FLAGS.consolePlugins to see the dynamic plugin on the Console front end.
