Flag for adding/ignoring optional dependencies

Open Nekkowe opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

The problem

When setting up e.g. batch scripts to install a lot of mods in sequence using ferium add, the script stops dead for the usual y/N-prompts whenever a mod has optional dependencies. It would be nice to be able to consent or decline to optional dependencies as part of the ferium add command.

My solutions

Package managers like apt handle this with methods like a -y/--yes/--assume-yes flag for the apt install command. In the case of ferium, it would be nice to have a corresponding "no" version, in order to decline optional dependencies as well.
