Updates @backstage/cli from 0.24.0 to 0.32.0

Changelog

Sourced from @​backstage/cli's changelog.

0.32.0

Minor Changes

• a47fd39: Removes default React imports from template files, aligning with the requirements for the upcoming React 19 migration. Introduces a new ESLint rule to disallow import React from 'react' and import * as React from 'react'.

  https://legacy.reactjs.org/blog/2020/09/22/introducing-the-new-jsx-transform.html

• 65b584c: Internal update to move the new and create-github-app to their own module.

• c7254ae: Internal update to move the clean, pre/postpack and fix commands into their own separate module.

Patch Changes

• 4ea76f7: Bump @​module-federation/enhanced ^0.9.0 to fix GHSA-593f-38f6-jp5m

• 87a5cb4: Fixed an issue causing the repo lint command to fail when the --max-warnings option was used.

• 6969f79: Avoid trailing /* when automatically adding imports for package with multiple entry points.

• 98b7131: Update the to do plugin template to stop using the deprecated catalog alpha service reference. If you start seeing the should create TODO item with catalog information test failing, you have two options to fix this: Update the test to mock the legacy alpha catalog service, or migrate the TODO plugin backend to use the new catalog service reference. We recommend the second option, see this pull request for an example of how to do the migration.

• d5c4fed: make certificate strings optional for Dev environments

• d83f3f4: Resolved a problem where the start command did not correctly handle multiple --require flags, ensuring all specified modules are now properly loaded.

• d2091c6: Added a new repo start command to replace the existing pattern of using yarn dev scripts. The repo start command runs the app and/or backend package in the repo by default, but will also fall back to running other individual frontend or backend packages or even plugin dev entry points if the can be uniquely selected.

  The goal of this change is to reduce the number of different necessary scripts and align on yarn start being the only command needed for local development, similar to how repo test handles testing in the repo. It also opens up for more powerful options, like the --plugin <pluginId> flag that runs the dev entry point of the selected plugin.

  The new script is installed as follows, replacing the existing yarn start script:

  {
    "scripts": {
      "start": "backstage-cli repo start"
    }
  }

  In order to help users migrate in existing projects, it is recommended to add the following scripts to the root package.json:

  {
    "scripts": {
      "dev": "echo \"Use 'yarn start' instead\"",
      "start-backend": "echo \"Use 'yarn start backend' instead\""
    }
  }

  For more information, run yarn start --help once the new command is installed.

• 918c883: Included a reference to the JSX transform guide in the warning about using the default React import.

Updates @playwright/test from 1.40.1 to 1.52.0

Release notes

Sourced from @​playwright/test's releases.

v1.52.0

Highlights

• New method expect(locator).toContainClass() to ergonomically assert individual class names on the element.

  await expect(page.getByRole('listitem', { name: 'Ship v1.52' })).toContainClass('done');

• Aria Snapshots got two new properties: /children for strict matching and /url for links.

  await expect(locator).toMatchAriaSnapshot(`
    - list
      - /children: equal
      - listitem: Feature A
      - listitem:
        - link "Feature B":
          - /url: "https://playwright.dev"
  `);

Test Runner

• New property testProject.workers allows to specify the number of concurrent worker processes to use for a test project. The global limit of property testConfig.workers still applies.
• New testConfig.failOnFlakyTests option to fail the test run if any flaky tests are detected, similarly to --fail-on-flaky-tests. This is useful for CI/CD environments where you want to ensure that all tests are stable before deploying.
• New property testResult.annotations contains annotations for each test retry.

Miscellaneous

• New option maxRedirects in apiRequest.newContext() to control the maximum number of redirects.
• New option ref in locator.ariaSnapshot() to generate reference for each element in the snapshot which can later be used to locate the element.
• HTML reporter now supports NOT filtering via !@my-tag or !my-file.spec.ts or !p:my-project.

Breaking Changes

• Changes to glob URL patterns in methods like page.route():
  • ? wildcard is not supported any more, it will always match question mark ? character.
  • Ranges/sets [] are not supported anymore. We recommend using regular expressions instead.
• Method route.continue() does not allow to override the Cookie header anymore. If a Cookie header is provided, it will be ignored, and the cookie will be loaded from the browser's cookie store. To set custom cookies, use browserContext.addCookies().
• macOS 13 is now deprecated and will no longer receive WebKit updates. Please upgrade to a more recent macOS version to continue benefiting from the latest WebKit improvements.

Browser Versions

• Chromium 136.0.7103.25
• Mozilla Firefox 137.0
• WebKit 18.4

This version was also tested against the following stable channels:

• Google Chrome 135
• Microsoft Edge 135

Updates @backstage/plugin-catalog from 1.15.1 to 1.29.0

Release notes

Sourced from @​backstage/plugin-catalog's releases.

v1.29.0

These are the release notes for the v1.29.0 release of Backstage.

A huge thanks to the whole team of maintainers and contributors as well as the amazing Backstage Community for the hard work in getting this release developed and done.

Highlights

BREAKING: Backend System deprecations and removals

As part of the work towards a stable 1.0 release of the new backend system, there are several new deprecations and breaking changes in the backend system packages:

Breaking:

• The deprecated token option has been removed from PermissionsService, and the request options are now required and must contain a credentials object.
• The deprecated getPath option has been removed from httpRouterServiceFactory, the plugin paths are now always /api/<pluginId>.
• It is no longer possible to pass service factory callbacks to the defaultServiceFactories option of createSpecializedBackend.

Deprecations:

• The ability to define options for service factories through createServiceFactory has been deprecated. See the service architecture documentation for more information on how to define customizable services.
• The ability to install backend features in callback form, i.e. () => BackendFeature, has been deprecated. This also includes other usages such as startTestBackend, and dynamically imported backend features. No manual changes should be needed for this change, as all backend feature creators have been updated to return BackendFeature instances directly.
• The ServiceFactoryTest.get method has been renamed to ServiceFactoryTest.getSubject, and is now deprecated.
• The following types have been renamed to use an *Options suffix instead: ServiceRefConfig, RootServiceFactoryConfig, PluginServiceFactoryConfig.
• Deprecated all exports related to the legacy status checker in @backstage/backend-common.
• The isDockerDisabledForTests function exported by @backstage/backend-test-utils has been deprecated.

Backend Health Service

A new health service as been added to the new backend system. This service provides health check endpoints for the backend, and replaces createStatusCheckRouter from @backstage/backend-common.

The service helps implement the new /.backstage/health/v1/readiness and /.backstage/health/v1/liveness endpoints, which provide health checks for the entire backend instance.

You can read more about this new service and how to customize it in the Root Health Service documentation.

New Catalog Logs module

This new @backstage/plugin-catalog-backend-module-logs module is a minimal module that will log any error events that are published by the catalog. This module is useful for making sure that catalog errors are visible in the logs, but you may want to replace it with a more customized solution if the resulting logs are too verbose.

Updates to the @backstage/create-app template

New backstage projects created with @backstage/create-app will now include the Catalog Logs module for logging catalog error events, as well as support for the Postgres Search Engine.

Permission Policy deprecations

The PermissionPolicy interface has been updated to align with the recent changes to the Backstage auth system. The second argument to the handle method is now of the new PolicyQueryUser type. This type maintains the old fields from the BackstageIdentityResponse, which are now all deprecated. Instead, two new fields have been added, which allows access to the same information:

• credentials - A BackstageCredentials object, which is useful for making requests to other services on behalf of the user as part of evaluating the policy. This replaces the deprecated token field. See the Auth Service documentation for information about how to create a token using these credentials.
• info - A BackstageUserInfo object, which contains the same information as the deprecated identity, except for the type field that was redundant.

Most existing policies can be updated by replacing the BackstageIdentityResponse type with PolicyQueryUser, which is exported from @backstage/plugin-permission-node, as well as replacing any occurrences of user?.identity with user?.info.

Minor Changes

• 9454ef9: Added support of filtering based on system columns in catalog table

• 61d350f: BREAKING ALPHA: CatalogFilterBlueprint, used in the new frontend system, is now exported under plugin-catalog-react instead of plugin-catalog.

  import { EntityContextMenuItemBlueprint } from '@backstage/plugin-catalog-react/alpha';
  const myCustomHref = EntityContextMenuItemBlueprint.make({
  name: 'test-href',
  params: {
  icon: <span>Example Icon</span>,
  useProps: () => ({
  title: 'Example Href',
  href: '/example-path',
  disabled: false,
  component: 'a',
  }),
  },
  });
  const myCustomOnClick = EntityContextMenuItemBlueprint.make({
  name: 'test-click',
  params: {
  icon: <span>Test Icon</span>,
  useProps: () => ({
  title: 'Example onClick',
  onClick: () => window.alert('Hello world!'),
  disabled: false,
  }),
  },
  });

Hi @dependabot[bot]. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a openshift-knative member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Instructions for interacting with me using PR comments are available here. If you have questions or suggestions related to my behavior, please file an issue against the kubernetes-sigs/prow repository.

[dependabot]

Looks like these dependencies are updatable in another way, so this is no longer needed.
