How to add plugins?

deanpeterson opened this issue · comments

This helm chart definitely helped me get backstage up and running on OCP (I was making my own image and struggling to get the urls configured correctly before). However, is there a recommended way to add plugins to the image being deployed with this Helm chart? I imagine I have to modify the underlying image like before?

For plugins installation you have to create new project with backstage-cli and install then you have to install plugin using yarn and configure it

I think for this to work out you have to build a new image. There are too many moving components that differ with each plugin. Take for example the Kubernetes plugin. It will suffice to provide instructions on how to build a new image including the plugins. Which Containerfile was used to create this image (ghcr.io/janus-idp/redhat-backstage-build:latest)?
