Thanks for updating the issue about the slack channel @stocky-account-63046!

Hi folks, quick roadmap question. I noticed that Rancher-Desktop uses the same extensions package format. (I know it's already essentially shared codebase). Is there going to be a form of extensions support for rancher-desktop as well?

I'm trying to throw together a getting started guide, so I've started from scratch with a local RD install, Rancher install, and the extension package. I've defined launched Rancher from helm with hostname

rancher.localhost

, which works great for local. But I'm having trouble with the proxy request that's happening inside of the extension dev process. I'd expect that

API=rancher.localhost/v3 yarn dev

should work as a run command, but I'm receiving an error. I'm assuming there is a network issue, but I've also tried using combinations of host.docker.localhost and 0.0.0.0, including localhost with a port forward from Rancher, but no luck. Am I missing anything obvious?

ok, I ended up adding

127.0.0.1 rancher.localhost

to my hosts file manually, and that seems to have fixed it. Also, the url path wants to not use the /v3 So after adding my hosts file, the corrected command is

API=rancher.localhost yarn dev

I'm still dealing with some networking issues, but they seem to be related to rancher desktop. the nuxt/dev dashboard can't reach my rancher.localhost address, but my browser can reach rancher.localhost. Its very bizarre. I'm also getting an EHOSTUNREACH, which is bizarre. I'd almost expect a ECONNREFUSED. Just calling that out in case anyone else hits a similar issue.

Is there a list of resource types available for the locationconfig? I'm trying to add a custom column (addTableColumn) to the Nodes table using

'node'

but not having luck. Curious is there's any restriction on certain types/apps

Thanks @witty-jelly-95845 for the Global Online Meetup plug - I will be joining Robert Sirchia to give an intro to extensions and answers questions!

Is there any documentation yet for Rancher Desktop extensions? It looks to perhaps be compatible with docker desktop extensions?

hello everyone i have a issue while trying to enable the extentions i don’t see in the docs how to enable it, I have upgraded from v2.6.3 to 2.7.3 anyone can tell me how to enable extentions ?

Hello folks, I'm doing some experiments to develop a rancher extensions and I have some question about it. First of all, I've not found this in the docs (but maybe I've not read it carefully 😇), if there a standard way to persistence store some information, e.g. configuration, of the extension? My use case if the following: The extension I'm working on needs to be configured with an external API endpoint that are not known at build time • I install the extension • At the first run, the ext displays a simple form to input the API URL • Then it starts the main view of the extension calling these API Thanks in advance

It looks like the getValues in addTableColumn requires a string or a number. Is there a way to pass a component or html to this object? I'd like to place a href there or another component like PercentageBar (which is used in the node table)

Hello, I have created a localization extension following the instructions(and repo with examples), but on the login page, I am unable to select the desired language, even though it is available in the account settings. So, whenever I log out, the translation defaults back to English. How I can fix it?

I'm trying to figure out how to open the developer console for extensions. @thankful-hospital-82027 and I were chatting and he thought it was Command+Shift+O but that doesn't seem to work for me. Is there some kind of debug enablement flag I need to set? (I do have debug logging on)

Hello @stocky-account-63046 , I am unable to install elemental extention using Rancher UI. I have setup Rancher 2.7.4 as a Single Container. When i click on elemental install it says "An error occured..." the only error from the pod i get is below, time="2023-07-05T111139Z" level=error msg="error syncing 'cattle-ui-plugin-system/elemental': handler on-plugin-change: Get \"https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rancher/ui-plugin-charts/main/extensions/elemental/1.2.0/plugin/package.json\": dial tcp 185.199.109.133443 i/o timeout, requeuing" i have set the proxy for docker already based on rancher doc, anywhere else i have to set???

Hi, Is there a particular reason why

locationConfigParam ===_CREATE

is missing from here? https://github.com/rancher/dashboard/blob/master/shell/core/plugin-helpers.js#L22 I would like to add a panel to a resource where the mode is create and only create but I unable to do that due to lack of create

mode

(as described in the table here https://rancher.github.io/dashboard/extensions/api/common#locationconfig). When I add a new elif for

_CREATE

it works.

Hi guys, is there a way to kustomize the output helm chart that is generated by

yarn publish-pkgs

? I'd like to change the

<http://catalog.cattle.io/kube-version|catalog.cattle.io/kube-version>

since I'm working on an extensions for a tool that supports kube >= 1.22:

Hi all. I'm with @witty-honey-18052 over at Krumware and we're experimenting with rancher extensions. I'm wondering how a global app should approach displaying information about resources from multiple clusters. It seems like it would be possible to iteratively query the endpoints for each cluster

<RANCHER_FQDN>/k8s/clusters/<id>/v1

, but it's unclear if or how that can be done with the vuex stores:

• `management`: Points at the global-level "steve" API for Rancher as a whole.

• `cluster`: Points at "steve" for the one currently selected cluster; changes when you change clusters.

• `rancher`: Points at the "norman" API, primally for global-level resources, but some cluster-level resources are actually stored here and not physically in the cluster to be available to the

cluster

store.

My understanding is that the

management

store interfaces with the

local

cluster, while the

cluster

store interfaces with the "currently selected cluster", which I would guess is empty in the context of a global app, so perhaps the better question is "can a global app use a vuex store to get data from another cluster?". I'd appreciate any guidance on this.

Can I replace rancher component via extension?

Hi guys, I noticed that the virtualType currently isn’t by default advertised as a DSLReturnType interface property

I’m trying add a custom page to my product: https://rancher.github.io/dashboard/extensions/api/nav/custom-page

How do we debug the installation of an extension? One of our extensions fails to install, but seemingly has no problems with local dev. I've checked for ui-plugin-operator logs and there doesn't appear to be any log output

Tiny one here, we noticed an issue with the Card component when Sticky flag is set. A scrollbar appears for the content (looks like a white box on dark mode). Should be as simple as switching overflow to overflow:auto instead of overflow:scroll. But I noticed an issue to implement a new Card component, so is it even worth opening an issue over?

easier to see when you zoom a level or two as seen in an extension prototype here:

Hi all, I'm trying to create a cloud-credential using a secret because somehow the default UI to create the Cloud Credentials for my custom node driver doesn't work (see https://github.com/rancher/dashboard/issues/8523) The only "example" I found is here https://github.com/rancher/rancher/issues/32366 with that I generated the following, but it doesn't seem to appear on Rancher UI once created. Am I missing anything obvious?

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
type: <http://provisioning.cattle.io/cloud-credential|provisioning.cattle.io/cloud-credential>
metadata:
  name: my-hc-credential
  labels:
  annotations:

  namespace: fleet-default
data:

if there are any other docs I can look at, please do let me know

I haven't been able yet to create cloud credentials doing a

POST

to

v3/cloudcredentials

. I believe I'm hitting this issue: https://github.com/rancher/rancher/issues/41745 Is there any way to see what's the issue with the data I'm sending?
