Hey, I just made a Pull Request!

https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHIDP-8299
https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHIDP-11299

Renamed plugins from marketplace to extensions

This PR contains the following changes:

  • Renamed all packages from backstage-plugin-marketplace-* to backstage-plugin-extensions-*
  • Updated all internal references, exports, and API endpoints
  • lazy load codeEditor to reduce the frontend plugin bundle size
  • Made catalog entities directory path configurable via extensions.directory in app-config.yaml with fallback to extensions and marketplace directorie

Screenshots/video:

Extension_in_cluster.mov

New Configuration for specifying the catalog-entities path:

extensions:
  # Optional: Custom directory path for extension YAML files
  # Can be absolute path or relative to the working directory
  # If not specified, falls back to:
  #   - /extensions (filesystem root)
  #   - /marketplace (filesystem root)
  directory: /path/to/custom/extensions

How to test in cluster?

  1. Add the following configuration in app-config.yaml (configmap)

Note: for this testing, you need to add the catalog locations from below config, automatic discovery is work in progress.

…ge when `CATALOG_INDEX_IMAGE` is set [RHIDP-11291] (#3970)

* chore: Add unit tests

* fix(install-dynamic-plugins): also extract catalog entities from index image when CATALOG_INDEX_IMAGE is set [RHIDP-11291]

* docs: Update docs accordingly

* Remove existing catalog entities in dest dir for clean sync with the content of the index image

This is to take into account the case where the catalog index image is updated and contains completely different catalog entities. Without this, we might still see the previous extensions displayed in the Extensions UI

* Also remove the /marketplace/catalog-entities files from the container image

It is now useless as it only contains a README file

* Extract extensions catalog entities to '<dynamic-plugins-root>/extensions' by default

'marketplace' is being replaced in favor of 'extensions'

[1] redhat-developer/rhdh-plugins#2006

Co-authored-by: Karthik Jeeyar <[email protected]>

* Search for the catalog entities folder in the 'extensions' folder from the catalog index image, with a fallback to 'marketplace' (for backward compatibility)
