Feedback Add --dryrun option to "ucd.exe releases create"

I found that

ucd.exe releases create

sometimes does not work, for more details please see this post.

Having a

--dryrun

for the

releases create

command, similar to how you implemented it to

entries sync

command, would be beneficial for me.

I follow the "one bucket per platform per environment" approach as recommended here and now I'm in a situation where I want to ensure that all release commands work, before actually creating releases, to avoid that I release the android bucket and later fail to release the ios bucket.

The CLI steps would be like this (pseudo code)

Code (CSharp):

1. if (call("ucd.exe releases create --dryrun --bucket androidBucketID") == failed)
2.   abortBuild();
3.  
4. if (call("ucd.exe releases create --dryrun --bucket iosBucketID") == failed)
5.   abortBuild();
6.  
7. // these calls would still check the return value, I left it out for simplicity in this example
8. call("ucd.exe releases create android");
9. call("ucd.exe releases create ios");

The --dryrun allows to reduce the risk that a sync command fails.

 

Any sign from Unity staff, that the feedback has been seen, would be appreciated.

 

That's great news! Thank you for the follow up.
