non-interactive installation

Author: kristjanvalurCreated Feb 8, 2024Updated Feb 21, 2025

I'm working on a robust way to automate the bootstrapping of windows development, specifically to "pipx install" an initial tool written in python. Current way consists of a long .bat file which in turn

  • installs scoop via powershell
  • installs python via winget
  • installs pipx via scoop
  • installs my tool via pipx.

Rye looks like a nice and robust way to replace the first three steps there with one. However, it would be nice to have a --quiet or --yes argument to allow non-interactive installation if possible. Alternatively, use an environment variable to this effect. This would accept the default settings, and continue even if symlinks are not available.
