Reminder: Upgrade keycloak client once Backstage supports ESM

Open tumido opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Keycloak admin client drops support for CommonJS by v19. It's ESM only, causing headaches to many folks: https://github.com/keycloak/keycloak-nodejs-admin-client/issues/523

However the decision is that they won't introduce CommonJS back. Our only hope is for Backstage to fully support ESM.

This would also impact the Dynamic backend plugin loading feature as well, which is NodeRequire-based, and has never been tested / validated with ESM modules (direct import or transitive deps).
