Unity package template

This template provides solution on how to create and maintain your package, while allowing it to be distributed through GitHub. It has CI actions, which creates/updates branch called upm after each commit to main. This is very usefull because you can have whole project(with all settings) in repo, but also allow to install only upm branch through Package Manager.

Look at upm branch to see how it looks.

Steps to setup your package repo

• Create new repo using this project as template
• Rename folder Packages/PACKAGE_NAME to represent your package name and namespace (if you are using Rider). For ex: Packages/SaG.Dependencies.
• Change PACKAGE_NAME in ".github/workflows/ci.yml" to your packages's folder name (IMPORTANT: it's easier to use github web client to do this step, otherwise there is a big chance to mess around with git credentials)
• Copy your package name, because you will need to paste it several time
  1. In Unity go to your package folder and select package.json file. Change all appropriate fields.
  2. In Unity go to your package folder and change names for all .asmdef files
  3. Change README.md and Packages/PACKAGE_NAME/README.md installation sections accordingly to your github repo.
  4. Remove from README.md unnecessary text
