selecting prefab from project window with Editor script

Questions & Answers

Hi, struggling with this.
I need to select a prefab from the project window as I want to populate my scene with prefabs when running an Editor script.
Trying variations of this: prefab example is called ‘eyes’

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEditor;
//#pragma warning disable

public class buildAssetsForFace : MonoBehaviour
{
    [MenuItem("Examples/Instantiate Selected")]
    static void cheese()
    {
        Selection.activeObject = AssetDatabase.LoadMainAssetAtPath("Assets/prefab/" + eyes + ".prefab");
    }
}

from here

But its super old and perhaps not relevant anymore

For anyone else struggling with this

using UnityEngine;
using UnityEditor;
//#pragma warning disable

public class buildAssetsForFace : MonoBehaviour
{
    [MenuItem("Examples/Instantiate Selected")]

    static void populatePrefab()
    {
        GameObject Eyes = (GameObject)AssetDatabase.LoadAssetAtPath("Assets/prefab/eyes.prefab", typeof(GameObject));
        GameObject clone = PrefabUtility.InstantiatePrefab(Eyes) as GameObject;
    }
}
