Unity Deployment Tools   travisbadge

Continuous deployment tools for open-source Unity3D packages and assets.

Overview

Unity Deployment Tools offers a quick way to setup open source unity packages. It features:

  • a self-documented and easy to use .ini file to configure all the options;
  • automated package/asset exporting from unity;
  • automated deployment to Github Releases;
  • automated creation and deployment of documentation to Github Pages.

Projects using UDT

Installation

  1. Download the latest stable release;
  2. Unpack the files into your repository's root directory;
  3. Go to Travis-CI an sign in with Github;
  4. Enable your repository in your account page;
  5. Open .deploy.ini with a text editor (like Notepad++) and modify the options under the [Misc] section as per your preferences.
  6. For additional features check the subsections below;
  7. Simply push a commit and let travis do all the work for you!

Once you're using UDT please consider leaving a comment so that I can add your repo to the list!

Features

These tools are all targeted at the majority of Unity users: the newbies. While more advanced users will also find them useful (automation is always welcome) everything by default is as simple as possible to configure (a simple .ini file) and to use (unzip and copy to your repo).

Some features have requirements (e.g. having a tag associated with the commit) which you have to fulfill before using them. The only exception is the automated building and exporting of the package (this includes no deployment/upload - it is simply to check is the package CAN be built and exported correctly). These requirements are shown at the beggining of each feature description.

Github Releases

Simply open your .deploy.ini file with a text editor (like Notepad++) and modify the [Github] section as per your preferences. That's it, really.

Code Documentation

Documentation for all your code is generated with Doxygen. Example documentation is provided at the Github Pages of this repository, example script taken from Microsoft's XML Documentation Example.

Basic Usage

Documentation generation is enabled by default. Open your .deploy.ini file with a text editor (like Notepad++) and modify the [Docs] section as per your preferences. That's pretty much it, for more things to do with Doxygen check below.

Advanced/Expert

Doxygen must be (for the sheer amount of options) the best documented software I've ever seen.

If you want to customize your docs more than the basic options presented in the .deploy.ini file (these are the same presented in the basic panel of the doxywizard) open the Doxyfile. This is the default doxygen configuration file and every option is very well documented. There are bajillions of them, have fun!

Please note that some options are hardcoded (see deploy_docs.sh).

Known Issues

  • Build error due to timeout on Travis-CI.

    No fix available - Sometimes the connection speed from the Travis-CI worker to the unity servers is just too slow and the build times out. No fix unless Travis somehow allows us to restart the build automatically.

    Workaround - Simply restart the build until the connection is faster.

Upcoming Features

  • Automated compiling and distribution as a .dll file.

Extras

These are all the options present in the .ini file.

Github OAuth Token

  1. Sign in to Github;
  2. Go to your Settings;
  3. Go to Personal Access Tokens;
  4. Click on Generate new token;
  5. Enter your password;
  6. Give the token a good description. Mine is Travis-CI Unity Deploy Tools;
  7. Give the token these permissions:
    • gist;
    • read:org;
    • repo;
    • user:email;
    • write:repo_hook
  8. Click on Generate token;
  9. The new token should now appear. NEVER give or show this token to anyone, not even Travis (the encryption process later on does not send the token to Travis, the entire process is local);
  10. Temporarily store your token somewhere local and safe;
  11. Go to Travis-CI and sign in with Github;
  12. Go to your repository settings;
  13. In the Environment Variables section, write "GH_TOKEN" (without the quotes) in the Name field and paste the token in the Value field;
  14. Make sure to leave Display value in build log as OFF and click Add;
  15. It's now safe to delete and forget about that token from before! Only use the secure (encrypted) version from now on.

unity-deploy-tools's Issues

Move files into Project/Assets

In order to be packaged, the files need to be moved to Project/Assets.

Files to be ignored:
./.git directory
./Project directory
./.sh files (should be moved into their own directory later)
./
.pkg files (the downloaded unity.pkg)
./*.log files (there shouldn't be any but just to be safe)
./.gitignore
./.travis.yml (not sure if travis sees this)

Package deployment

Built package needs to be deployed somewhere (prefer github releases?)

Add option to create docs

There should be some way to generate docs (doxygen?) and upload somewhere (gh pages? I don't think readthedocs is available)
