I have several user input statements like:
read -r -p "Do u want to include this step (y) or not (n) (y/N)"? answer
if [[ "$answer" =~ ^[Yy]$ ]]; then
...
fi
I am looking for a way to automatically answering yes to all these questions. Imagine a non-interactive session where the user invokes the script with --yes
option. No further stdin
input.
The only way I can think right now is adding another condition on each if statement.
Any thoughts?
