[ShiranHi]

Thank you @debsmita1 , looks great!
Could you add a screenshot that shows the tooltip text for the icons?

The icons currently don't have a tooltip. Only if they are disabled for any reason , the tooltip shown.

Hi @debsmita1 , thanks for the PR. I finally got it working with some specific commit. When I use marketplace backend plugin exported from this PR with current rhidp-8301-remove-dynamic-plugins-info-plugin branch version RHDH, the marketplace plugin doesn't load any data like this

Then I tried some old commits, which worked together to test changes in this PR, here's the version I used.

It seems that the issue is with the backstage version bump in marketplace backend plugin. After the backstage version bump, the backend stops loading. (cc @teknaS47 , @christoph-jerolimov )

Here's the recording for the UI changes in this PR:

pr_1558.mp4

Things I observed:

1. when hover on Edit button, the highlight effect is not a circle but a oral shape(low priority)
2. clicking on Cancel button on package edit page takes the user to the drawer, instead of going directly back to the installed packages table.
3. tooltip for action buttons only shows up when buttons are disabled, and the message seems off, it should be the permission hint instead of the button function.
4. enable/disable toggle button not working correctly, when coming back to the installed packages table, the toggle button shows the old value. Will this be handled in another story?
5. only when I am in the list of admin.superUsers I have permissions for action buttons. If I'm in the admin.users list, I have no permission to use these row action buttons. Is this expected? The following is what I see when I am only in the admin.users list, instead of being admin.superUsers list. The tooltip looks right in this case.

Naaa? Why is this needed? We had a MarketplacePackageContent before? I expect we lose a lot of type save-tyness if we say "this can be a package as well"

[debsmita1]

I used this Content component for both cases so I could reuse the Actions dropdown that we display in the plugin drawer content. We want to show the same dropdown for the package as well. Since it’s rendered based on permissions, I wanted to avoid duplicating that logic.

Fixed it !

3. tooltip for action buttons only shows up when buttons are disabled, and the message seems off, it should be the permission hint instead of the button function.

Updated the tooltip to show the action function when package entity is available and the logged in user has permission to manage package config

Package without entity

It Requires backend restart after you change anything in the config. We should test this on a cluster

5. only when I am in the list of admin.superUsers I have permissions for action buttons. If I'm in the admin.users list, I have no permission to use these row action buttons. Is this expected? The following is what I see when I am only in the admin.users list, instead of being admin.superUsers list. The tooltip looks right in this case.

Yes, this is how it works as of today, you need the following permissions to manage plugin configuration

p, role:default/team_a, extensions-plugin, read, allow
p, role:default/team_a, extensions-plugin, create, allow

else you add yourself as a super user

@ShiranHi I also added the alert for package config modification

Hi @debsmita1 , thanks for the updates. It's almost working perfect now except for the "disable/enable" toggle button which doesn't do anything when I click on it with permission. When I don't have the permission the tooltips are showing two kinds of messages, is this expected?

pr_1558_2.mp4

Also, this time I was able to use the current rhidp-8301-remove-dynamic-plugins-info-plugin branch code to run RHDH.

@ciiay Yes, if the package doesn't have an entity, we cannot really check if the user has permission to manage the package config as the usePermission hook depends on entity namespace and its parent plugin's name

the Enable & Disable actions rely on extensions create permission. If your user entity doesn't have extensions create, you will not have the permission to enable/disable a plugin. Can you verify if you have the required permission?

Verified on RHDH locally and functions including translation are working great. Great job 👏

[ShiranHi]

Updated the tooltip to show the action function when package entity is available and the logged in user has permission to manage package config

@debsmita1 I know this PR has already been merged, but I think we should update the tooltip text to align with the design. The rest looks great, thank you!
