7.1. Overview of dynamic plugins

7.1.1. About dynamic plugins

Dynamic plugins are deployed as workloads on the cluster. They allow you to add custom pages and other extensions to your console user interface at runtime. The ConsolePlugin custom resource registers plugins with the console, and a cluster administrator enables plugins in the console-operator configuration.

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 plugins components, such as element selectors. These are not APIs and are subject to change. Using them might break your plugin. Avoid selectors like element selectors that could affect markup outside of your plugins components.
  • Provide valid JavaScript Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (MIME) type using the Content-Type response header for all assets served by your plugin web server. Each plugin deployment should include a web server that hosts the generated assets of the given plugin.

PatternFly guidelines

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

  • Use PatternFly 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.

    • Use Patternfly 4.x if you are using OpenShift Container Platform versions 4.14 and earlier.
    • Use Patternfly 5.x if you are using OpenShift Container Platform 4.15 or later.
  • 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. Plugins should only include styles that are specific to their user interfaces to be evaluated on top of base PatternFly styles. Avoid importing styles such as @patternfly/react-styles/*/.css or any styles from @patternfly/patternfly package in your plugin.
  • The console application is responsible for loading base styles for all supported PatternFly version(s).

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

  1. In your terminal, run the following command to install the dependencies for your plugin using yarn.

    $ yarn install
  2. After installing, run the following command to start yarn.

    $ yarn run start
  3. In another terminal window, login to the OpenShift Container Platform through the CLI.

    $ oc login
  4. 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 which 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

  1. Build the image with the following command:

    $ docker build -t quay.io/my-repositroy/my-plugin:latest .
  2. 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
  3. 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

  1. To deploy your plugin to a cluster, 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.
  2. Optional: You can specify any additional parameters by using the set of supported parameters in the charts/openshift-console-plugin/values.yaml file.

    plugin:
      name: ""

          resources:
            requests:
              cpu: 10m
              memory: 50Mi

Verification

  • View the list of enabled plugins by navigating from Administration Cluster Settings Configuration Console operator.openshift.io Console plugins or by visiting the Overview page.
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. Plugin service proxy

If you need to make HTTP requests to an in-cluster service from your plugin, you can declare a service proxy in its ConsolePlugin resource by using the spec.proxy array field. The console backend exposes the /api/proxy/plugin/<plugin-name>/<proxy-alias>/<request-path>?<optional-query-parameters> endpoint to proxy the communication between the plugin and the service. A proxied request uses a service CA bundle by default. The service must use HTTPS.

Note

The plugin must use the consolefetch API to make requests from its JavaScript code or some requests might fail. For more information, see "Dynamic plugin API".

For each entry, you must specify an endpoint and alias of the proxy under the endpoint and alias fields. For the Service proxy type, you must set the endpoint type field to Service and the service must include values for the name, namespace, and port fields. For example, /api/proxy/plugin/helm/helm-charts/releases?limit=10 is a proxy request path from the helm plugin with a helm-charts service that lists ten helm releases.

Example service proxy

apiVersion: console.openshift.io/v1
kind: ConsolePlugin
metadata:
  name:<plugin-name>
spec:
  proxy:
  - alias: helm-charts 1
    authorization: UserToken 2
    caCertificate: '-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----\nMIID....'en 3
    endpoint: 4
      service:
        name: <service-name>
        namespace: <service-namespace>
        port: <service-port>
      type: Service

1
Alias of the proxy.
2
If the service proxy request must contain the logged-in user’s OpenShift Container Platform access token, you must set the authorization field to UserToken.
Note

If the service proxy request does not contain the logged-in user’s OpenShift Container Platform access token, set the authorization field to None.

3
If the service uses a custom service CA, the caCertificate field must contain the certificate bundle.
4
Endpoint of the proxy.

7.3.4. 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

7.3.5. Additional resources

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. The following procedure adds 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.

Procedure

  1. Visit the console-plugin-template repository containing 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.

  2. Create a GitHub repository for the template by clicking Use this template Create new repository.
  3. Rename the new repository with the name of your plugin.
  4. Clone the new repository to your local machine so you can edit the code.
  5. Edit the package.json file, 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.
  6. 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" }
      }
    }
  7. Edit the package.json file to include the following changes:

            "exposedModules": {
                "ExamplePage": "./components/ExamplePage",
                "ExampleTab": "./components/ExampleTab"
            }
  8. 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>
        );
    }
  9. 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 to deploy your plugin on a cluster. 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
    Note

    For more information on deploying your plugin on a cluster, see "Deploy your plugin on a cluster".

Initially, the hook returns an empty array. After the resolution is complete, the React component is re-rendered with the hook returning an adapted list of extensions. When the list of matching extensions changes, the resolution is restarted. The hook will continue to return the previous result until the resolution completes.

The hook’s result elements are guaranteed to be referentially stable across re-renders. It returns a tuple containing a list of adapted extension instances with resolved code references, a boolean flag indicating whether the resolution is complete, and a list of errors detected during the resolution.

Example

const [navItemExtensions, navItemsResolved] = useResolvedExtensions<NavItem>(isNavItem);
// process adapted extensions and render your component

Parameter NameDescription

typeGuards

A list of callbacks that each accept a dynamic plugin extension as an argument and return a boolean flag indicating whether or not the extension meets desired type constraints

7.5.3. 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.
    • Curl 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 relys 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 typos in the nav extension perspective or section IDs.

    • Your plugin may be loaded, but nav items 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 frontend.
