Endless Angular static remotes building

[IKatsuba]

Current Behavior

I have eight Angular remote apps and a host. All of them have the standard configuration by official generators. All apps are built in the dist folder.

Everything is all right if I start nx serve host for the first time (there is no dist).

But if dist exists, the dev server does not start. I endlessly see this message:

I found the buildStaticRemotes function in the Angular Module Federation Dev Server. For no reason the exit event fires earlier than the data event.

Expected Behavior

All remotes are built, and the dev server started.

GitHub Repo

No response

Steps to Reproduce

I can't reproduce the same behavior with the statically generated repo. But maybe the exit event has to have a similar handler as the data event?

Same here, since this week im stuck on building X static remotes ....
not sure if this is the dist folder issue or another (after deleting the dist, its still not working)

[pachesnyi]

Hi, guys. Any updates on this one?

[leosvelperez]

Thanks for reporting this! I'm sorry for the delay in getting to it.

There's little information we can use to reproduce the issue. I tried to reproduce it by creating a workspace with a host and a few remotes (using the official generators) and it's serving the host and static remotes correctly.

Could someone provide a reproduction so we can troubleshoot this?

[kevinriemens]

On thing I've noticed is the following: when doing an nx reset, the static remotes are building. Consecutive runs have this issue.
Same behaviour as I've described in this issue: #22722

Additional Info

We are using:
Angular in NgModule setup, Module Federation, 1x shell 2x remote, 5x libs, SSR.

Issues:

1. On the first build, the static remotes Builds, but the second remote has trouble finding the correct RemoteEntry, so it messes up the routing/guards for that Remote
2. On every consecutive run, the Static Remotes build endlessly. It just stuck at the message: Building 2 static remotes...

We had this issue since 17.2+ now.

Currently our only working workaround is configuring the remotes as devRemotes, which works, but is slow af.
