Helpshift SDK - UPM support #6
Description
Issue
Helpshift Unity SDK is missing unity's package manager support.
UPM standard requires things like:
- Specific folder structure
- Once UPM package is installed in the project its files are immutable by design. Meaning that SDK shouldn't ask users to edit its files.
- Assembly definition files
- Package manifest (pacakge.json) in the root of the package folder
Note
Having UPM support doesn't mean the SDK itself needs to be hosted in a npm registry. It can still be delivered in a .unitypackage format if that's still most convenient to you.
More info about it can be found here: Unity Manual: Creating custom packages
Benefits
This would be a great QoL improvement for developers. Managing project dependencies without it is a real pain.
UPM support exists in unity editor since 2017, and many SDK developers already adapted it. it's only natural to support it at this point.
