EPIC Goal
This epic is to collect tasks related to marking some functions of the dynamic plugin configuration or tooling as deprecated.
Background/Feature Origin
As the dynamic plugin technology evolves we need to ensure that we remove unused or old functionality. Some of it may be user-facing, in which case we need to document this as deprecated in a release first before removing it. Ideally we should also flag the feature as deprecated in any help text of developer documentation.
Here is a list of items that come to mind:
- apiFactories: This is not needed if plugin authors ensure their plugin properly adds any API factories it contains to CreatePlugin.
- embed-as-code/no-embed-as-dependencies: this is the old dynamic plugin export method which inlines dependencies as code. Dynamic plugins exported using this method run into issues when trying to make database calls, so the new method (embed-as-dependencies) was developed and supersedes this export method.
