James,

If $CI_PROJECT_DIR is the path to a locally cloned git repository, would the following three steps be correct? (Note that push processes are not included yet, and I am not doing any “cd” like your example code below.)

python3 /home/gitlab-runner/unity-app-generator/build_ogc_app.py init $CI_PROJECT_DIR python3 /home/gitlab-runner/unity-app-generator/build_ogc_app.py build_docker python3 /home/gitlab-runner/unity-app-generator/build_ogc_app.py build_cwl

I believe build_docker is executed correctly because I see its image in local docker registery:

sh-4.2$ sudo docker images REPOSITORY TAG IMAGE ID CREATED SIZE unity-example-application 4331df7a d06c4fe8e066 8 minutes ago 1.63GB buildpack-deps bionic 0f137f206fa8 2 months ago 621MB ubuntu

What would indicate that build_cwl has worked as well?

Thanks, Edwin

In the $CI_PROJECT_DIR directory there should be a .unity_app_gen/cwl directory if build_cwl stage succeeded.

James,

If I understand the comments at https://github.com/unity-sds/unity-app-generator/blob/main/README.md correctly, I should be able to do the following

cd $CI_PROJECT_DIR python3 /home/gitlab-runner/unity-app-generator/build_ogc_app.py init python3 /home/gitlab-runner/unity-app-generator/build_ogc_app.py build_docker python3 /home/gitlab-runner/unity-app-generator/build_ogc_app.py build_cwl

I am following the example

git clone https://github.com/unity-sds/unity-example-application.git cd unity-example-application build_ogc_app.py init

given in the same REAME file, but I get the following error message:

$ cd $CI_PROJECT_DIR $ python3 /home/gitlab-runner/unity-app-generator/build_ogc_app.py init usage: build_ogc_app.py init [-h] [-c CHECKOUT] source_repository [destination_directory] build_ogc_app.py init: error: the following arguments are required: source_repository

Is there anything that I am doing wrong?

If you cd to the project directory then there needs to be a dot “.” after init to specify the current directory.

This task is complete. The Unity cloning tool (https://github.com/unity-sds/unity-app-build-trigger) and unity-app-generator (https://github.com/unity-sds/unity-app-generator) have been successfully tested with the example project https://github.com/unity-sds/unity-example-application.
