When preparing an app package for Hololight Hub, it is important to create the ZIP file correctly to ensure that Hololight Hub can read and deploy the application without issues.
What should be inside the ZIP file?
Navigate to the folder where your application files are located. You need to select all files and subfolders inside this folder, at the level where your application executable (for example, Stream2025.exe) is located. Do not zip the parent folder itself. The ZIP file must contain the application files directly at the root level of the archive.
- Navigate to your app folder.
- Select everything inside the folder.
- Right-select the executable.
- Navigate to Compress > ZIP file.
- Wait for the process to finish.
- Upload the created ZIP file to Hololight Hub.
Use only standard ZIP format
When creating the archive, use the standard Compress to ZIP file option provided by Windows. Do not use alternative compression formats like 7z, TAR, or RAR. Only standard ZIP files are supported by Hololight Hub.
Summary
- Select all files and folders in the directory where your application executable is located.
- Compress the selected files using the Compress to ZIP file option.
- Do not compress the folder itself.
- Only ZIP format is supported. Other formats are not compatible.
Following these steps ensures that your app package is correctly prepared for uploading and deploying in Hololight Hub.
