Azure feed to be discontinued on March 10th

[bdovaz]

In case anyone hasn't heard by now @xoofx has resigned from Unity (source 1, source 2, source 3) and will no longer be maintaining this project and the feed he currently hosts in Azure with his MVP credits.

As of March 10 the feed will no longer be available so it will not be as easy as setting up the scopedRegistry in the manifest.json as stated in the instructions.

After that date everyone who wants to continue using the service without interruption will have to host it on their own.

This project publishes a Docker image in ghcr.io that can be consumed to create a container and host it as you wish. I list the most commonly used ones below:

• Local
• Azure Container Apps
• Amazon Elastic Container Service

In this link you can see how to configure the Docker container and all the available parameters.

Oh wow, what is so unexpected and unfortunate.
There is an alternative (NuGetForUnity)[https://github.com/GlitchEnzo/NuGetForUnity] project which doesn't allow to develop Unity packages with dependencies on NuGet packages like UnityNuGet does.

To be honest I have no idea how to manage that. Does anyone know a way to implement package dependencies in other way?
For example I am working on this package - Unity + EFCore + SQLite, which has dependencies on NuGet packages, it won't work without it.

Per the issue linked above, looks like OpenUPM will be hosting their own version that likely will cover everyone's needs

The registry is hosted at https://unitynuget-registry.openupm.com/ and continuously tracks the latest Docker image for automatic updates. As long as the project keeps updating the Docker image, everything should work as expected. The OpenUPM registry is already uplinked to it. I’ll monitor the server for a while and make an announcement.

Thank you very much for providing an alternative @favoyang!

As soon as I can I will update the main readme with this information.

Thanks @favoyang ❤
That is so valuable contribution!

The Azure service just got disabled because of spending limit. Tomorrow is March 10, so I will disable it entirely. Once it is done, I will transfer the ownership of this repository to @bdovaz. Thanks all for your comprehension!

[xoofx]

All good, the project was successfully transferred to @bdovaz.
Thank you all for your support, have a good continuation with this project! 🤗

[IvanMurzak]

@xoofx Thank you! This project is really important. I truly appreciate your contribution!

I have just updated the Readme of the repository with the following information:

• Basic usage using the OpenUPM feed.
• Advanced usage by hosting the service on your own.

It is always recommended to host the service on your own to have full control of the service.
