0.6.0

Summary

This release adds support to the new Backstage backend system without forcing users to move to the new backend system if they choose to stay in the legacy backend system for now.

Warning: Existing backend plugin users need to make some changes in code because we had to extract the Scaffolder actions to a separate Backstage module (@pagerduty/backstage-plugin-scaffolder-actions).

For existing users using the legacy backend system

1. Install new package

   yarn add --cwd packages/backend @pagerduty/backstage-plugin-scaffolder-actions
   yarn install

2. Update your existing reference in packages/backend/src/plugins/scaffolder.ts from the backend component to the new one

   import { createPagerDutyServiceAction } from '@pagerduty/backstage-plugin-scaffolder-actions';

3. Pass the environment config and logger to createPagerDutyServiceAction

     const actions = [
        ...builtInActions, 
        createPagerDutyServiceAction({ 
             config: env.config, 
             logger: env.logger 
        })
     ];```

For users using the new backend system

1. Install new package

   yarn add --cwd packages/backend @pagerduty/backstage-plugin-scaffolder-actions
   yarn install

2. (Optional) If this is the first time configuring PagerDuty's plugin you also need the following packages

   yarn add --cwd packages/backend @pagerduty/backstage-plugin-backend @pagerduty/backstage-plugin-common
   yarn install

3. Add the package to your backend in packages/backend/src/index.ts

   // PagerDuty backend plugin
   backend.add(import('@pagerduty/backstage-plugin-backend'));
   
   // PagerDuty Scaffolder Actions Module
   backend.add(import('@pagerduty/backstage-plugin-scaffolder-actions'));
