DevTools Backend

Welcome to the DevTools backend plugin! This plugin provides data for the DevTools frontend features.

Setup

Here's how to get the DevTools Backend up and running in the new backend system:

  1. First we need to add the @backstage/plugin-devtools-backend package to your backend:

    # From the Backstage root directory
    yarn --cwd packages/backend add @backstage/plugin-devtools-backend
  2. Then add the plugin to your backend index file:

    // In packages/backend/src/index.ts
    const backend = createBackend();
    // ... other feature additions
    backend.add(import('@backstage/plugin-devtools-backend'));
  3. Now run yarn start-backend from the repo root

  4. Finally open http://localhost:7007/api/devtools/health in a browser and it should return {"status":"ok"}
