What

The CRD schema view renders each property's type, description and required status, but not its default value or an enum's allowed values. This adds both.

  • default and enum are carried through normalizeSchema using nullish coalescing, so a falsy default (false, 0, "") is preserved rather than dropped.
  • The default is shown as a chip in the property header (next to the type and required chips); an enum's allowed values are listed in the property details.
  • Both the Kubernetes CRD format and the simplified schema format are supported.

Why

kubebuilder-derived defaults are part of a CRD's contract (for example holdAtZero: false, replicas: 1). Today they are invisible in the API docs, so a user cannot tell a field's default without reading the raw CRD YAML.

Testing

  • Added unit tests for default and enum rendering (both schema formats, including a regression guard for falsy defaults).
  • yarn workspace @terasky/backstage-plugin-api-docs-module-crd test all pass
  • yarn workspace @terasky/backstage-plugin-api-docs-module-crd lint clean
  • yarn tsc clean

Docs updated: plugin README, site/docs/plugins/api-docs-module-crd/overview.md, and .../frontend/about.md.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • CRD property exploration now displays each property’s default value and allowed enum values.
    • Metadata is shown for both Kubernetes-format and simplified schema definitions, including falsy defaults such as false and explicitly configured null.
    • Array-item types are supported when presenting schema metadata.
  • Documentation

    • Updated plugin documentation to describe default values and allowed enum values in rendered CRD schemas.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The CRD schema widget now preserves and displays property default values and allowed enum values for Kubernetes-format and simplified schemas. Tests cover falsy defaults and enum rendering. Plugin documentation describes the new metadata.

Changes

CRD Schema Metadata

Layer / File(s) Summary
Schema metadata normalization

The CRD schema view showed each property's type, description and required
status, but not the default value or the allowed values of an enum, so
kubebuilder-derived defaults were invisible in the API docs.

Carry `default` and `enum` through normalizeSchema (using nullish
coalescing so a falsy default such as `false`, `0` or `""` survives),
render the default as a chip in the property header, and list enum
allowed values in the property details. Both the Kubernetes and
simplified schema formats are supported. Adds tests and updates the
plugin README and docs site.

…d schemas

A simplified schema with `Default: null` was dropped because the
capital/lowercase merge used `??`, which treats null as absent. Select
the default by key presence so an explicitly configured null is kept and
rendered. Adds a test.
