This repo contains implementations of several Che plugin brokers

che-plugin-broker

Downloads tar.gz archive and:

• Evaluates Che workspace sidecars config from che-plugin.yaml located in a plugin archive and data from config.json that is placed in workdir or different path if a corresponding broker argument is used. It contains data about Che plugin or editor from meta.yaml
• Copies dependency file/folder specified in dependencies.yaml inside of a plugin archive

theia-plugin-broker

Downloads .theia archive and:

• Unzip it to a temp folder
• Check content of package.json file in it. If it contains {"engines.cheRuntimeContainer"} then this value is taken as container image for sidecar of a remote plugin. If it is missing or empty plugin is considered non-remote
• Copies .theia file to /plugins/ for a non-remote plugin case
• Copies unzipped .theia to /plugins/ for a remote plugin case
• Evaluates Che workspace sidecar config for running Theia plugin as Che remote plugin in a sidecar:
  • adds an endpoint with random port between 4000 and 6000 and name port<port>
  • adds env var to workspace-wide env vars with name THEIA_PLUGIN_REMOTE_ENDPOINT_<plugin_publisher_and_name from package.json> and value ws://port<port>:<port>
  • adds env var to sidecar env vars with name THEIA_PLUGIN_ENDPOINT_PORT and value port
  • adds projects volume
  • adds plugin volume
• Sends sidecar config to Che workspace master

init-plugin-broker

Cleanups content of /plugins/ folder. Should be started before other brokers not to remove files they are adding to plugins folder.

vscode-extension-broker

Downloads VS Code extension from marketplace and:

• Unzip it to a temp folder
• Check content of package.json file in it.
• Copies unzipped extension to /plugins/
• Evaluates Che workspace sidecar config for running VS Code extension as Che Theia remote plugin in a sidecar:
  • adds an endpoint with random port between 4000 and 6000 and name port<port>
  • adds env var to workspace-wide env vars with name THEIA_PLUGIN_REMOTE_ENDPOINT_<plugin_publisher_and_name from package.json> and value ws://port<port>:<port>
  • adds env var to sidecar env vars with name THEIA_PLUGIN_ENDPOINT_PORT and value port
  • with projects volume
  • with plugin volume
• Sends sidecar config to Che workspace master

Dependencies

Dependencies in the project are managed by Go Dep. After you added a dependency you need to run the following command to download dependencies to vendor repo and lock file and then commit changes:

dep ensure

dep ensure doesn't automatically change Gopkg.toml which contains dependencies constrants. So, when a dependency is introduced or changed it should be reflected in Gopkg.toml.
