Default options for CLI commands (update/install)

[dagadbm]

I automate most of my dotfiles including updating them and everytime I update tmux I have to see the tmux-thumbs screen and always press option 1 (compile).

It would be nice if this CLI command could accept a default option.

something like

./tmux-thumbs-install.sh update --compile

or

./tmux-thumbs-install.sh update --download

This would make the update process silent and just compile without always having to ask if we want to update or not.

I'm facing the same! I will add it!

Thinking about it, maybe it's better to have an Environment variable to control this. What do tou think?

My personal opinion would just be an argument to the script. Env variable makes me have to keep separate settings on different files (in this case zshrc needs to have a special line for a plug-in on tmux.

I thought about this a bit more and honestly anything is enough, even the env var because you can just easily prepend the command with it.

I have to battle test a bit more this branch but you can check it out: #133

Is there way for me to test it locally? I don't have much experience in OSS. Might as well try to help out how I can since you are having all the work!

You can checkout the source code and run the script passing the env variable described in the Readme.

hello! just circling back on this to see if this will indeed make it to main or not.
