How to programmatically import a Package

Unity Engine
1

Hello!

I am trying to automatically build a Unity app in Jenkins. Before being able to do that, I have to import a .unitypackage generated somewhere else. I am testing the steps on my machine, and when I run

“C:\Program Files\Unity\Editor\Unity.exe” -batchmode -projectPath -logFile logfile.txt -importPackage <.unitypackage FullPath>

the command seems to finish really fast, even though I can see in the task manager that the Unity executable is still running and doing things, and in fact the logfile.txt keeps being updated. At the end I can see that everything has been successfully imported.

Now, if I try that on the build machine, it seems as though it tries to actually build the project even though I am not specifying that.

And further down the same logfile:

Those errors will be fixed if the import is successful, because that’s basically what the import is for, to include scripts and assets to be able to build the app.

Note, that I am running this command directly in a shell step in the Jenkins job and not as a “invoke unity3d” step, like this

{UNITY_HOME}Unity -importPackage {ROOT_DIR}/{UNITYPACKAGE} -projectPath {ROOT_DIR} -logFile ${ROOT_DIR}/logfile.txt -batchmode -quit

I am running 5.6.1f on both machines. Any suggestions?

I am still testing stuff, and If I select to run the importPackage step without batchmode, the Unity process seems to never finish, and the process is in sleeping state:
