JCMG Package Tools

Overview

Unity package tools is a set of Unity Editor tools that make it easier for developer to share their own tools, plugins, etc... as packages that other users can then import via the native Unity Package Manager. It does this by:

• Providing one-button click functionality for copying the relevant source folders/files to a prescribed package export location.
• Automate creating and updating the package manager Json file.
• Generating a helper class describing versioning information about your package for inclusion with its contents.

Installing JCMG Package Tools

Using this library in your project can be done in three ways:

Install via OpenUPM

The package is available on the openupm registry. It's recommended to install it via openupm-cli.

openupm add com.jeffcampbellmakesgames.packagetools

Install via GIT URL

Using the native Unity Package Manager introduced in 2017.2, you can add this library as a package by modifying your manifest.json file found at /ProjectName/Packages/manifest.json to include it as a dependency. See the example below on how to reference it.

	"dependencies": {

}
