In short - I want to understand how to update the addressables and the catalog without having to build the project each time.
Hello, I’m quite new to Addressables and something isn’t quite working out for me, and I would appreciate some help.
I built a WebGL project and uploaded the project to S3, and everything works.
Now I also want the option to update assets without having to make a new build for the project.
So what I managed to understand is that I need to put everything I want into a group in the addressables, and then tell it to build the addressables (after, of course, updating the path from where to read the files on the server).
Now I’m building only for the addressables and getting a catalog file with a long and strange extension in the project ServerData folder. and in addition, I also did a build for the project. In the build project folder, there is a catalog file without any additional prefix to it. If I upload what came out in the project build to S3 (and I upload the bundles to their place according to the path I set) then everything runs on the web as needed.
What I don’t understand is how to update the catalog, because if I want to only build the addressables, without doing a build for the whole project, then I get a catalog with a complicated name, and if I upload it to S3 then the project doesn’t know how to read it.
I hope this is clear enough, thank you very much.
