Hello,

I have created a project in the Linux Unity Editor and can build that project using the Editor. How would I build the project from the command line on Linux? Sorry if this question has been asked before – I couldn’t find any relevant documentation or resources online specific to Linux.

Unity 2019.3.0f1
Ubuntu 16.04

Thanks,

Thomas

You can find the Unity executable file inside of [install path]/[Unity version]/Editor/Unity. (The install path can be configured inside Unity Hub.)
You can launch Unity by writing that file path in a terminal, and you can pass arguments as you normally would:
[Unity install path]/[Unity version]/Editor/Unity [arguments]

For example, you could try something like this (your paths may vary):

cd '~/Documents/Unity Project'
/opt/UnityHub/2019.4.1f1/Editor/Unity -quit -batchmode -projectPath "$(pwd)" -buildLinux64Player "$(pwd)/Linux Build/build-name.x86_64"
