Add Commands, Arguments, and Scripts to Packages
To use Package Manager to install and remove packages, you must configure the Files tab with the
appropriate commands, arguments, and optional pre- and post-command scripts to be run before and
after the installation command.
Every application has unique command and script requirements. Consult the documentation issued for the
application for which you are creating a package when configuring the Files tab options.
Referencing Response Files Using System Environment Variables
Some software installations require a response file during the install process. To accommodate the need
for a response file you can add the %CrateWorkingDirectory% system variable to your arguments when
you configure the installation and removal options.
For example, you are creating a package where the .msi requires a response file named settings.ini. You
include the settings.ini file in your Project Data Directory files, and then configure the Arguments with the
correct reference. In this example, the Argument is /q
settings="%CrateWorkingDirectory%\Data\settings.ini".
The value %CrateWorkingDirectory%\Data\ is required, after this value you add any subdirectories that
exist in your Project Data Directory. For example, the settings.ini may be in a folder named InstallSettings,
in which case the argument is /q settings="%CrateWorkingDirectory%\Data\InstallSetting\settings.ini".
