Installing and running UWP through command prompt, with parameters / local files (Unity UWP Hololens
MerkSim
✭
Hello,
We are using a feature of Unity3D (2018.2) that enables sending frames to the Hololens, but the feature only works with a UWP app, not typical exe. The app will not be given as a standalone, it just gets installed/runs as part of our main software.
Is there a way after building the Appx, to install it and run it through code?
I checked WinAppDeployCmd, but it only installs the application (without running it) and it requires that the root certificate is trusted (which as far as I ve seen, can only be done by manually navigating to the properties of the Appx file).
Finally we want to pass a couple of arguments to our app through CMD, like the location of a file that we want to use for our application.
So something like :
WinAppDeployCmd install -file "path of app" -ip 127.0.0.1
(or in general, on the same machine it's run from) , and afterwards(assuming we register an Alias with the app)
myAppsAlias -s "c:\DL\fileIwantToprocess.png"
It seems that one or more of those requirements cannot be achieved through UWP.
I would really appreciate some insight on whether what we are planing is doable or not, and if yes some hints/links to the right direction.
Thanks!
