feat: print out config values in nonint mode #232

Closed guerda closed 8 months ago

guerda commented 8 months ago

It's great that raspi-config lets you set values in an non-interactive way via nonint.

In order to make this even better, it would be great if you also can read out the existing configuration via non-int mode, to backup configuration etc.

It could look like this:

$ sudo raspi-config nonint do_audio
0

I don't know if that's possible for all options, but it could be a good start to let you automate the config.

It's a bit outside of the scope of what raspi-config is meant to be for. The nonint functionality is primarily there for rc_gui, not general use. The interface can and will change without any notice.

There are some get_* functions there already, but again, this isn't something we're claiming to provide support for.

OK, I understand that. Maybe that should be put as a warning notice on the documentation page, too.

XECDesign commented 8 months ago

Yup, I think that can be done as an issue or a PR here.
