CONSOLE-5065: Add ConsoleRemotePlugin option baseDir to support multi-plugin builds by vojtechszocs · Pull Request #17002 · openshift/console

vojtechszocs · 2026-08-14T19:34:42Z

Analysis / Root cause

In ConsoleRemotePlugin we're currently assuming that baseDir (base directory for resolving relative paths when processing plugin assets) is always process.cwd().

This doesn't work with multi-plugin repos such as https://github.com/red-hat-storage/odf-console

Solution description

Add ConsoleRemotePlugin option baseDir to support multi-plugin builds.

Summary by CodeRabbit

New Features
- Added support for configuring a base directory when building multiple console plugins.
- Relative assets, modules, styles, package metadata, and extension validation now resolve from the configured directory, improving build reliability for multi-plugin projects.
- Uses the current working directory by default when no base directory is specified.
Documentation
- Documented the new base-directory configuration option in the SDK webpack release notes.

Pipeline controller notification
This repo is configured to use the pipeline controller. Second-stage tests will be triggered either automatically or after lgtm label is added, depending on the repository configuration. The pipeline controller will automatically detect which contexts are required and will utilize /test Prow commands to trigger the second stage.

For optional jobs, comment /test ? to see a list of all defined jobs. To trigger manually all jobs from second stage use /pipeline required command.

Walkthrough

ConsoleRemotePlugin now accepts an absolute baseDir option that defaults to process.cwd(). The plugin uses this directory for metadata, module, stylesheet, extension, and validation resolution. The changelog documents the option.

Changes

ConsoleRemotePlugin base directory support

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Base directory contract and initialization `frontend/packages/console-dynamic-plugin-sdk/src/webpack/ConsoleRemotePlugin.ts`	Defines the public `baseDir` option, validates its absolute path, loads package metadata from it, stores it in adapted options, and parses default extensions relative to it.
Runtime resolution and release documentation `frontend/packages/console-dynamic-plugin-sdk/src/webpack/ConsoleRemotePlugin.ts`, `frontend/packages/console-dynamic-plugin-sdk/CHANGELOG-webpack.md`	Uses `baseDir` for dynamic module lookup, PatternFly stylesheet discovery, and extension validation. Documents the option for version `4.23.0-prerelease.6` with its pull request reference.
