    Getting this working was a journey of trial and error — I must have broken it a hundred different ways before landing on a solution that finally stuck. The goal sounded simple enough: run SonarQube analysis against my Unity project inside a Jenkins pipeline.

    Using Jenkins for the unity project is a great option to automate builds, run tests, gather reports and in my case I also use SonarQube to analyse my static code. I set jenkins up to do this previously, and then forgot how to do it so this article will hopefully benefit my future self when…

    I am still learning android development, still wrapping my head around the basic concepts, so trying to get unity and android working together has had its challenges. One such challenge is triggering android activities from unity then getting some result back. An Activity is a core building block of Android apps, representing a single screen…

    As part of a larger virtual reality project I need to use the Google Drive API as a source that users can use to download files (readonly).

    Unity has a few builtin methods to validate assertions in the UnityEngine.TestTools namespace, you can validate the message as well as the log level.

    As I work on a toy project in unity I have came across the challenge of integrating it with android. My project is targetting android, however it doesn’t really need to use any android features so my goal was to bypass JNI and go straight to the native system as much as possible. My inital…

    On day 1 of learning Haskell and going through advent of code, we used foldl to move up and down floors to see what floor we ended up on. Day 2 is trickier as we need to do the same, but stop when we reach floor -1 for the first time. The result is how…

    I have been wanting to learn some functional programming and what better language to start with the original, at least I think it is the original.

    When developing some native plugins to use in my unity project I frequently run into generic errors coming from the dll that I am not experienced in debugging. I have one such an example and wanted to record it for my future self if I run into these kind of issues again. Background I haven’t…
