runtimePlugins support pass parameters

[2heal1]

Clear and concise description of the problem

Now ModuleFederationPlugin support runtimePlugins option , but it can not pass parameters , so the usage is limited .

Suggested solution

runtimePlugins support pass parameters by array config . The first item is runtimePlugin path , and the second item is a serializable parameter configuration.

The type is like this:

type RuntimePlugins = Array<string> | Array<[string, unknown]>

// config file

new ModuleFederationPlugin {
 runtimePlugins: [ 
    path.resolve( 'my-custom-plugin.js'),
    [ 
       path.resolve( 'my-custom-plugin-with-parameters.js'),
       { customOptions: 'xxxx' },
    ]
   ]
}

@ahabhgk What do you think about it ? Can we do it in rspack as well ?

We can implement this, but since runtimePlugins are running in runtime not build time, so there is a limitation about the parameters, which need to be serializable if you use it in the config file, but if you use it in runtime, there won't be this limitation.

yes , the parameters must be serializable . If the users want to pass function , they can just add parameters in plugin , like this :

import { FederationRuntimePlugin } from '@module-federation/runtime';

export default function (): FederationRuntimePlugin {
  const options = {xxxx} 
  return {
     beforeInit(args){
         if(options){
            // do something
         }
         return args;
     }
  }
}

yeah i used to do this trick with __resourceQuery and put things on the query string of an import to use at runtime. Same limits apply :P
