Collaborate Client Package

ReleaseBadge ReleaseBadge

This is the package to add Collaborate support to the Unity Editor. Unlike its predecessor CollabProxy, this package has completely switched the UI to using UIElements. There is no more CEF, JS, or HTML.

The project is exclusively targeting .NetStandard 2.0 and will not work with the legacy Mono runtime.

The minimum supported version of the Unity Editor is 2020.1a13.

Development

For developers:

Option 1: clone this repository out into the packages/ directory in a project.

Option 2: clone elsewhere and link with the packages/manifest.json file in the project:

"com.unity.collab-proxy": "file:/some/path/to/package"

To add testing support also add the testibles section to the manifest. Your manifest should look like this:

{
  "dependencies": {
    "com.unity.collab-proxy": "file:/some/path/to/package",
    ...
  },
  "testables": [
    "com.unity.collab-proxy",
    ...
  ]
}

For internal testers: simply add the git url into the packages/manifest.json file:

"com.unity.collab-proxy": "git://git@github.cds.internal.unity3d.com:unity/com.unity.cloud.collaborate.git"

If you need a specific revisision:

"com.unity.collab-proxy": "git://git@github.cds.internal.unity3d.com:unity/com.unity.cloud.collaborate.git#<rev>"

If you need more information, read the Documentation for package dependencies from git.

Code style is as dictated in Unity Meta.

There are IDE Specific code style configs under the Config/ directory in the above repo.

Known Issues

  • [COL-1079] The history window doesn't correctly distinguish local vs remote changes
  • [COL-573] Publishing new versions of some packages in Collab results in Cannot Copy File error
  • [COL-1083] Error message for opening diff tool on conflicted file when none are installed is not very helpful. Workaround is to install and select a supported diff tool in the Preferences->External Tools window.
  • [COL-1084] Triggering a domain reload while Collab History tab is open disables the UX until the Editor is focused. Workaround is to click onto the Editor a second time.
  • [COL-1085] Go Back To commit in 2020.1 with pre-v1.2.17 in package manifest breaks Collaborate window. Workaround is to open project in a version of Unity older than 2020.1.0a13 where pre-v1.2.17 packages are supported.
