This features auto resizes the iframe when an autoResizeIframe is present on <UIResourceRenderer /> .

Client side:

<UIResourceRenderer
  resource={resource}
  htmlProps={{ autoResizeIframe: true }}
/>

Server side:

const resizeObserver = new ResizeObserver((entries) => {
  entries.forEach((entry) => {
    window.parent.postMessage(
      {
        type: "ui-size-change",
        payload: {
          height: entry.contentRect.height, // supports height and width
        },
      },
      "*",
    );
  });
});

resizeObserver.observe(document.documentElement)

Note: autoResizeIframe can either be a boolean or { width?: boolean, height?: boolean } for fine-grained control on auto resizing dimensions.

entries.forEach((entry) => {
window.parent.postMessage(
{
type: "ui-size-change",

note that all the other events start with ui-, though:

export const InternalMessageType = {
  UI_ACTION_RECEIVED: 'ui-action-received',
  UI_ACTION_RESPONSE: 'ui-action-response',
  UI_ACTION_ERROR: 'ui-action-error',

  UI_SIZE_CHANGE: 'ui-size-change',

  UI_LIFECYCLE_IFRAME_READY: 'ui-lifecycle-iframe-ready',
  UI_LIFECYCLE_IFRAME_RENDER_DATA: 'ui-lifecycle-iframe-render-data',
};


To make the iframe auto-resize, two things need to happen:
1. The `autoResizeIframe` prop must be set on the `<HTMLResourceRenderer />` (or passed via `htmlProps` to `<UIResourceRenderer />`).
2. The content inside the iframe must send a `ui-size-change` message to the parent window when its size changes.
