Things to know

Repository migration notice (June/July 2021)

In order to make testing and deployment of our plugins easier we are migrating all Roadie plugins to a monorepo at https://github.com/RoadieHQ/backstage-roadie-plugins.

The plugins will still be published to the same place on NPM and will have the same package names so nothing should change for consumers of these plugins.

Plugin Configuration Requirements

This plugin relies on the GitHub Authentication Provider for its access to GitHub.
