Unity C# importing local packages-CodePudding

I'm attempting to do a simple import from a local path. Not sure where I'm messing up here. I'm not the strongest coder, so any insight is appreciated. Below is my attempt.

         [MenuItem("ImportMenu/ImportAsset")]
         static void ImportAssetOnlyImportsSingleAsset()
         {
             // My asset package file name
             string fileName = "MyAsset.unitypackage";
     
             // Project Asset folder path to save file to
             var assetsPath = Application.dataPath   "/"   fileName;
             Debug.Log($"Application.dataPath: {Application.dataPath}");
     
             // Where my asset package is located
             var filePath = "D:/Local_Projects/Packages/MyAsset";
             // Import asset
             AssetDatabase.ImportAsset(filePath);
     
             //Debug.Log("Imported: "   importedAssets);
         }

CodePudding user response：

AssetDatabase can only load from files from the root of the Project. These are Assets or Packages. If your project is not directly in Local_Projects it would not work.

From documentation

All paths are relative to the project folder, for example: "Assets/MyTextures/hello.png"

What you can do is copy the content of this package into the directory of the project.

File.Copy(fileToCopy, destinationFile); // or File.Move(...)
AssetDatabase.ImportAsset(destinationFile);
// Do something with this asset
// Optionaly
File.Remove(destinationFile);
