feat: publish the portal shell and add the create-portal scaffolding CLI - #753
Composability Phase 2 (openchoreo/openchoreo#4330, design discussion openchoreo/openchoreo#4275): makes the portal shell a published package and adds a CLI that scaffolds a standalone, user-owned portal repo on top of it. Two commits, reviewable independently.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added the npx @openchoreo/create-portal CLI to scaffold a customizable OpenChoreo Portal, with options for the project name, output location, package registry, and dependency installation.
Generated portals include setup and customization guides, plugin support, and a path for incorporating future portal releases.
The portal app is now published alongside other OpenChoreo packages and is available for custom portal projects.
Documentation
Added CLI usage and generated-portal guides, and updated the main README with custom portal instructions.
It looks like this branch is under active development. To avoid overwhelming you with review comments due to an influx of new commits, CodeRabbit has automatically paused this review. You can configure this behavior by changing the reviews.auto_review.auto_pause_after_reviewed_commits setting.
The portal app joins lockstep publication. The new @openchoreo/create-portal CLI generates a standalone portal from monorepo files. The release workflow tests the generated scaffold and publishes its template. An accessibility test adds a bounded wait for sign-in or post-login elements.
The generator copies and transforms monorepo files into a scaffold, removes marked assistant wiring, pins workspace dependencies, and validates generated files. Template sources provide the portal shell, metadata, tests, and generated-project guidance.
The CLI validates options, selects a registry and template, renders the scaffold, attempts Git initialization, and installs dependencies unless skipped. Tests cover the CLI and its task helpers.
The release workflow smoke-tests generated scaffolds and publishes template tags to the stable or prerelease branch when configured conditions are met.
Sign-in E2E synchronization
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Wait for sign-in state packages/app/e2e-tests/a11y.spec.ts
The test waits up to 15 seconds for sign-in controls or post-login navigation. If the wait times out, it continues with the existing checks.

In @.changeset/create-portal-cli.md:
- Around line 5-10: Update the create-portal CLI release documentation and
publishing configuration so the documented npx `@openchoreo/create-portal` command
resolves from its actual registry: either publish `@openchoreo/create-portal` to
npm, or explicitly document the GitHub Packages registry and required
authentication setup wherever the command is shown.
In @.github/workflows/release.yml:
- Around line 121-131: Update the template publication flow around the commit
and tag commands to check whether the remote already contains ${RELEASE_TAG}
before creating a commit or tag. If the tag exists, skip publication or validate
that it references the expected generated template; otherwise retain the
existing stable main and prerelease next push behavior.
In `@packages/create-portal/package.json`:
- Around line 14-17: Align the package publish configuration and installation
documentation: in packages/create-portal/package.json, update publishConfig so
`@openchoreo/create-portal` is published to the registry used by plain npx; in
packages/create-portal/README.md, update the documented command if retaining
GitHub Packages, including its registry and authentication requirements.
In `@packages/create-portal/src/index.ts`:
- Around line 22-42: Update the Commander option declarations for --name,
--path, --registry, and --template-path to use required value syntax instead of
optional bracket syntax, while preserving their existing descriptions and the
DEFAULT_REGISTRY default.
In `@packages/create-portal/src/lib/tasks.ts`:
- Around line 150-156: Update checkPathExistsTask to inspect the destination
directory after ensuring it exists, and fail when it contains any entries while
allowing a newly created or existing empty directory. Preserve the existing
directory-creation error handling and use the task’s existing error-reporting
flow for the rejection.
In `@packages/create-portal/templates-src/packages/app/src/App.test.tsx`:
- Around line 6-20: Update the test environment setup in App.test.tsx to clone
the existing process.env before overriding NODE_ENV and APP_CONFIG, preserving
inherited variables such as PATH and registry settings for subsequent tests.
In `@packages/create-portal/templates-src/README.md.hbs`:
- Around line 15-17: Update the generated README template,
packages/create-portal/README.md, and the install error message to instruct
users to provide npmAuthToken via an environment variable or user-level Yarn
configuration, never by committing registry tokens to project files.

for the login control or post-login sidebar to render before evaluating
visibility. Use a bounded wait associated with the relevant locator, then
preserve the existing sign-in and post-login behavior so hydration delays do not
cause the test to skip authentication.

⚠️Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.
Do not move main for a back-line stable release.
build distinguishes the highest stable tag from an older stable tag, but this branch pushes both to the template repository's main. If v1.3.0 is current and v1.2.1 is released afterward, the push makes main contain the older template. Push the version tag for every stable release, but advance main only when needs.build.outputs.latest is true. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

- Around line 287-289: Separate the “Push template to
openchoreo/portal-template” step into a job that does not share a runner or
filesystem with dependency installation or CLI execution. Keep scaffold
generation and verification in an unprivileged job, pass the verified template
to the push job, and ensure that job only pushes it without installing
dependencies or executing the CLI.

kinds. Preserve the existing allowed kinds and ensure the expanded global rules
apply to provider mutations, not only static template locations.

Assert the working directory in the buildAppTask test.
The test name says the commands run inside the portal. No assertion checks the directory. execCommands() records only command strings, and the exec mock ignores cwd. buildAppTask changes directory with process.chdir(appDir) and then runs bare exec(cmd) calls. Removing the chdir call leaves this test passing.
Spy on process.chdir and assert that it receives the portal directory. The spy calls through to the real chdir. The existing afterEach restores the original directory, then jest.restoreAllMocks() removes the spy.

Add a generator test for feature-discovery wiring.
The generator suite checks only that packages/app/src/App.tsx is in the rendered file list. It does not read any file contents for discovery wiring. Removing app.packages from the generated app-config.yaml, or removing @openchoreo/backstage-portal-app from the generated packages/app/package.json, passes every generator assertion. The scaffold's own discovery.test.ts catches a missing dependency, but it runs only inside the generated repository. It does not read app-config.yaml.
