The installer is a downloader for the actual install files so it might take some doing to automate.

I will pick this up.

boubou commented 4 years ago

Is it on the way ?

TheCakeIsNaOH commented 4 years ago

@pauby Any updates?

pauby commented 4 years ago

@TheCakeIsNaOH I'm going to remove myself from this. While I have an interest in it, it's going to sit here until I get time to do it. If you have the time to pick it up then it would seem to be better for you to do so.

Apologies.

Note: 21.7 GB are required to install Oculus.

georgettica commented 4 years ago

I want to take over the work that @pauby did. To do that I need to understand what has been done and what is the scope of work required.

please respond here on this and I would like to give it a go

pauby commented 4 years ago

@georgettica I have done no work on this at all. That's why I moved it back to being available for other maintainers.

georgettica commented 4 years ago

@pauby ☺️ all is good. I'll look at similar projects and try to assess the depth of work before I dive into it.

georgettica commented 4 years ago

seems like I have not time to work on it (as can be seen from the last comment I made) if someone aside of me wants to work on it the community will be happy

pauby commented 3 years ago

I'll pick this up again (I need it after rebuilding my VR machine).

pauby commented 3 years ago

I've looked into this and I'm going to pass on it. This isn't a good installer to package.

The setup is a stub installer (there is no offline installer) and runs you through a process including logging in etc. It doesn't have a silent option natively, I don't think AutoHotkey is going to be easy to script (although I'd imagine doable) and things like installing on a separate drive would have to be taken care of. IMO more work than it's worth.

I'm going to put this back to available for maintainers as I think it's doable, just a LOT of work.
