@humanitec/backstage-plugin-scaffolder-backend-module is a new backend system module to add the humanitec action in the scaffolder

Scaffolder Actions

This plugin provides the following scaffolder actions:

create-app

create-app will create an app in Humanitec with specific workloads and automation.

Installation

1. Install @humanitec/backstage-plugin-scaffolder-backend-module plugin with,

yarn workspace backend add @humanitec/backstage-plugin-scaffolder-backend-module

1. Add the plugin in ./packages/backend/src/index.ts to your backend,

+ backend.add(import('@humanitec/backstage-plugin-scaffolder-backend-module'));

backend.start();

1. Add configuration to app-config.yaml

humanitec:
  orgId: the-frontside-software-inc
  token: ${HUMANITEC_TOKEN}

Usage

Add the action to your template,

+    - name: Create Humanitec App
+      id: humanitec-create-app
+      action: humanitec:create-app
+      input:
+        setupFile: humanitec-apps.yaml
+        appId: ${{ parameters.componentName }}

+    - name: Fetch configured humanitec.orgId
+      id: humanitec-environment
+      action: humanitec:get-environment

setupFile parameter

humanitec:create-app needs to know what workloads to create in the Humanitec App. In the future, workload configuration will be handled using paws.sh, in the mean time, humanitec:create-app expects to read an YAML file where it expects to find information about the payload. By default, this file is called humanitec-app.yaml and can be changed by specifying setupFile parameter.

Here is an example of such a file,
