Description:

Quick follow-up to #868 to improve the types, for MFEs using frontend-platform.

How to test locally

  1. Checkout this branch locally.
  2. Edit this repo's package.json to work around semantic-release warnings/annoyances:
-  "version": "1.0.0-semantically-released",
+  "version": "8.5.6",
  1. Run npm run build for frontend-platform
  2. In your MFE or something like frontend-component-header, edit package.json like so:
-    "@edx/frontend-platform": "^8.5.6",
+    "@edx/frontend-platform": "file:../frontend-platform/dist",
  1. In your MFE, run npm install, then test the code, e.g. run npm run types

Merge checklist:

  • Consider running your code modifications in the included example app within frontend-platform. This can be done by running npm start and opening http://local.openedx.io:8080.
  • Consider testing your code modifications in another local micro-frontend using local aliases configured via the module.config.js file in frontend-build.
  • Verify your commit title/body conforms to the conventional commits format (e.g., fix, feat) and is appropriate for your code change. Consider whether your code is a breaking change, and modify your commit accordingly.

Post merge:

  • After the build finishes for the merged commit, verify the new release has been pushed to NPM.

@arbrandes @dcoa could you take a look at this please? I need this to fix some errors encountered when upgrading the version of frontend-platform used in the Authoring MFE.

When we initialize an application or add new configuration for a component we pass string as scope in the mergeConfig function

As you can see here

I just wonder if should we add it as a optional parameter (and pass it to the publish if is set)

I see what you mean, but I'm not sure what to do with that string value and I don't really want to change any runtime behavior in this PR, so I've just left it for now.

Can we also export the react-intl types ( IntlConfig, ResolvedIntlConfig, IntlShape, or maybe just IntlShape) for cases like

I tested in local and have '"@edx/frontend-platform/i18n"' has no exported member named 'IntlShape'. Did you mean 'intlShape'?
