## Plugin Registration Functions

All from `@kinvolk/headlamp-plugin/lib`:

```typescript
registerRoute({
  path: string;               // React Router path (e.g., '/myresource/:namespace?/:name?')
  sidebar?: string;           // Sidebar entry name to highlight
  component: () => JSX.Element; // Arrow function wrapper required
  exact?: boolean;
  name?: string;              // Used by Link's routeName prop
}): void

registerSidebarEntry({
  parent: string | null;      // null = top-level
  name: string;
  label: string;
  url: string;
  icon?: string;              // Iconify ID (e.g., 'mdi:lock')
}): void

registerDetailsViewSection(
  (props: { resource: KubeObjectInterface }) => JSX.Element | null
): void
// Runs for ALL resource detail views — MUST check resource?.kind

registerDetailsViewHeaderAction(
  (props: { resource: KubeObjectInterface }) => JSX.Element | null
): void

registerResourceTableColumnsProcessor(
  (args: { id: string; columns: Column[] }) => Column[]
): void
// id examples: 'headlamp-storageclasses', 'headlamp-persistentvolumes'

registerPluginSettings(
  pluginName: string,
  component: React.ComponentType<{
    data?: Record<string, string | number | boolean>;
    onDataChange?: (data: Record<string, string | number | boolean>) => void;
  }>,
  showSaveButton?: boolean
): void

// Also available but less commonly used:
registerAppBarAction(component): void
registerAppLogo(component): void
registerClusterChooser(component): void
registerSidebarEntryFilter(filter): void
registerRouteFilter(filter): void
registerDetailsViewSectionsProcessor(fn): void
registerHeadlampEventCallback(callback): void
registerAppTheme(theme): void
registerUIPanel(panel): void
```

## K8s Module

```typescript
import { K8s } from '@kinvolk/headlamp-plugin/lib';
```

### KubeObject Base Class

```typescript
class KubeObject<T extends KubeObjectInterface> {
  jsonData: T;                // Raw K8s JSON — use this for spec/status access
  metadata: KubeMetadata;
  kind: string;

  getAge(): string;
  getName(): string;
  getNamespace(): string | undefined;
  delete(force?: boolean): Promise<void>;
  patch(body: RecursivePartial<T>): Promise<void>;

  static useGet(name?, namespace?): [item: T | null, error: ApiError | null];
  static useList(opts?: { namespace?: string }): [items: T[], error: ApiError | null, loading: boolean];
  static apiEndpoint: ApiClient | ApiWithNamespaceClient;
  static className: string;
}
```

**CRITICAL**: Resource hooks return class instances. Raw K8s JSON lives under `.jsonData`. Access fields via `.jsonData.spec`, `.jsonData.status`, or typed getters.

### ResourceClasses

All standard K8s resource types available (Secret, Namespace, Pod, etc.):

```typescript
const [secrets, error, loading] = K8s.ResourceClasses.Secret.useList({ namespace: 'default' });
const [secret, error] = K8s.ResourceClasses.Secret.useGet('my-secret', 'default');
```

---

## ApiProxy

```typescript
import { ApiProxy } from '@kinvolk/headlamp-plugin/lib';

ApiProxy.request(
  path: string,
  options?: {
    method?: 'GET' | 'POST' | 'PUT' | 'PATCH' | 'DELETE';
    body?: string;          // JSON.stringify'd
    isJSON?: boolean;       // false for non-JSON (logs, metrics)
    headers?: Record<string, string>;
  }
): Promise<unknown>

// CRD endpoint factories
ApiProxy.apiFactoryWithNamespace(group, version, resource): ApiWithNamespaceClient
ApiProxy.apiFactory(group, version, resource): ApiClient
```

**Service proxy URL** (accessing in-cluster services):

```text
/api/v1/namespaces/${ns}/services/http:${name}:${port}/proxy${path}
```

---

## CommonComponents

From `@kinvolk/headlamp-plugin/lib/CommonComponents`:

`SectionBox` — container with title and optional `headerProps.actions`
`SectionHeader` — standalone header with title and actions array
`SectionFilterHeader` — header with namespace filter; `noNamespaceFilter` to hide it; `actions` array
`StatusLabel` — status chip; `status`: `'success' | 'error' | 'warning' | 'info'`
`Link` — internal nav; `routeName` + `params` object
`Loader` — spinner with `title` prop
`PercentageBar` — bar chart with `data` array of `{ name, value, fill }`

### SimpleTable (non-obvious props)

```typescript
<SimpleTable
  data={items}
  columns={[
    { label: 'Name', getter: (item) => item.metadata.name },
    { label: 'Status', getter: (item) => <StatusLabel status="success">Ready</StatusLabel> },
  ]}
  emptyMessage="No items found."
/>
```

### NameValueTable (non-obvious props)

```typescript
<NameValueTable
  rows={[
    { name: 'Key', value: 'display value' },
    { name: 'Hidden', value: 'x', hide: true },
  ]}
/>
```

### ConfigStore

```typescript
import { ConfigStore } from '@kinvolk/headlamp-plugin/lib';
const store = new ConfigStore<MyConfig>('plugin-name');
store.get(): MyConfig;
store.update(partial: Partial<MyConfig>): void;
store.useConfig(): () => MyConfig;
```

### Pre-bundled (no package.json entry needed)

react, react-dom, react-router-dom, @iconify/react, react-redux, @material-ui/core, @material-ui/styles, lodash, notistack, recharts, monaco-editor

## CRD Class Pattern

```typescript
import { ApiProxy, K8s } from '@kinvolk/headlamp-plugin/lib';
const { apiFactoryWithNamespace } = ApiProxy;
const { KubeObject } = K8s.cluster;
type KubeObjectInterface = K8s.cluster.KubeObjectInterface;

interface MyResourceInterface extends KubeObjectInterface {
  spec: MySpec;
  status?: MyStatus;
}

export class MyResource extends KubeObject<MyResourceInterface> {
  static apiEndpoint = apiFactoryWithNamespace('mygroup.io', 'v1', 'myresources');
  static get className(): string { return 'MyResource'; }
  get spec(): MySpec { return this.jsonData.spec; }
  get status(): MyStatus | undefined { return this.jsonData.status; }
}
```

---

## Plugin Entry Point Pattern

```typescript
// 1. Sidebar (parent → children)
registerSidebarEntry({ parent: null, name: 'my-plugin', label: 'My Plugin', icon: 'mdi:icon', url: '/mypath' });
registerSidebarEntry({ parent: 'my-plugin', name: 'my-list', label: 'Resources', url: '/mypath' });

// 2. Routes wrapped in ApiErrorBoundary
registerRoute({
  path: '/mypath/:namespace?/:name?',
  sidebar: 'my-list',
  component: () => <ApiErrorBoundary><MyListPage /></ApiErrorBoundary>,
  exact: true, name: 'my-resource',
});

// 3. Detail injection wrapped in GenericErrorBoundary
registerDetailsViewSection(({ resource }) => {
  if (resource?.kind !== 'Secret') return null;
  return <GenericErrorBoundary><MySection resource={resource} /></GenericErrorBoundary>;
});

// 4. Settings
registerPluginSettings('my-plugin', SettingsPage, true);
```

## Headlamp Test Mocks

```typescript
vi.mock('@kinvolk/headlamp-plugin/lib', () => ({
  ApiProxy: { request: vi.fn().mockResolvedValue({}) },
  K8s: { ResourceClasses: {}, cluster: { KubeObject: class {} } },
}));

vi.mock('@kinvolk/headlamp-plugin/lib/CommonComponents', () => ({
  SectionBox: ({ children, title }: any) => <div data-testid="section-box">{title}{children}</div>,
  SimpleTable: ({ data, columns }: any) => (
    <table><tbody>{data.map((d: any, i: number) =>
      <tr key={i}>{columns.map((c: any, j: number) => <td key={j}>{c.getter(d)}</td>)}</tr>
    )}</tbody></table>
  ),
  NameValueTable: ({ rows }: any) => (
    <dl>{rows.filter((r: any) => !r.hide).map((r: any) =>
      <div key={r.name}><dt>{r.name}</dt><dd>{r.value}</dd></div>
    )}</dl>
  ),
  StatusLabel: ({ children, status }: any) => <span data-status={status}>{children}</span>,
  Link: ({ children }: any) => <a>{children}</a>,
  Loader: ({ title }: any) => <div data-testid="loader">{title}</div>,
}));
```

## Theming & Dark Mode

Headlamp supports light and dark themes. **Never hardcode colors.** Use CSS custom properties with light-mode fallbacks:

### Required CSS variables for inline styles

```typescript
// Text
color: 'var(--mui-palette-text-primary)'
color: 'var(--mui-palette-text-secondary, #666)'

// Backgrounds
backgroundColor: 'var(--mui-palette-background-default, #fafafa)'
backgroundColor: 'var(--mui-palette-background-paper, #fff)'

// Borders
border: '1px solid var(--mui-palette-divider, #e0e0e0)'

// Interactive
backgroundColor: 'var(--mui-palette-primary-main, #1976d2)'
color: 'var(--mui-palette-primary-contrastText, #fff)'

// Disabled states
backgroundColor: 'var(--mui-palette-action-disabledBackground, #e0e0e0)'
color: 'var(--mui-palette-action-disabled, #9e9e9e)'

// Links
color: 'var(--link-color, #1976d2)'
```

### Common mistakes to avoid

- **NEVER** use raw `#fff`, `#000`, `#333`, `#666` etc. without wrapping in `var(--mui-palette-*)`
- **NEVER** use `rgba(0,0,0,0.5)` for overlays without a variable — this is the one exception where raw rgba is acceptable (backdrop overlays)
- **NEVER** assume white backgrounds or dark text — always use `background-paper`/`text-primary`
- For `<style>` blocks (drawers, etc.), use the same CSS variables in the stylesheet
- Fallback values after the comma are for environments where the variable isn't set — always use the light-mode default

### Form inputs in custom components

```typescript
const inputStyle = {
  border: '1px solid var(--mui-palette-divider, #ccc)',
  borderRadius: '4px',
  backgroundColor: 'var(--mui-palette-background-paper)',
  color: 'var(--mui-palette-text-primary)',
};
```

## Code Quality Rules

1. **Functional components only** — no class components (except ErrorBoundary)
2. **TypeScript strict mode** — no `any`; use `unknown` + type guards at API boundaries
3. **Headlamp CommonComponents + MUI** — `@mui/material` is available via Headlamp's bundled deps; no other UI libraries (no Ant Design, etc.)
4. **Inline CSS only** — `style={{}}` props, CSS variables (`var(--mui-palette-*)`) for theming
5. **Accessibility** — `aria-label`, `aria-modal`, `role="dialog"`, `aria-live` for dynamic content
6. **Cancellation safety** — async effects must check a `cancelled` flag
7. **Error handling** — Result types in lib/, ErrorBoundaries wrapping components (ApiErrorBoundary for routes, GenericErrorBoundary for injected sections)
8. **Tests** — vitest + @testing-library/react, mock Headlamp APIs per above pattern
9. Run `npm run tsc` and `npm test` after implementation changes
