@nx/rspack - Cannot set custom port option to 'serve' executor

[x77t]

The Problem

The nx/rspack withNx method does not pick the custom port option that comes from the project.json or the CLI args and instead just uses a hardcoded value of 4200 when the serve command is being executed.

Problem Reference

// rspack.config.js

const { composePlugins, withNx, withReact } = require('@nx/rspack')
const rspack = require("@rspack/core")

module.exports = composePlugins(withNx(), withReact(), (config) => {
  return {
    ...config,
    context: __dirname,
    node: {
      __dirname: true
    },
    module: {
      ...config.module,
      rules: [
        ...(config.module.rules || []),
        {
          test: /\.css$/,
          use: ["postcss-loader"],
          type: "css",
        },
      ]
    },
    plugins: [
      ...config.plugins,
      new rspack.container.ModuleFederationPlugin({
        name: 'crm-root',
        remotes: [],
      }),
    ]
  };
});

outputs:

nx run crm-root:serve

How To Reproduce

• Create a simple react app with rspack using nx/react and nx/rspack plugins
• Try passing a custom port value and serving the app from nx CLI
