Add DragonFlyBSD support #19

Open Slackadays opened 1 year ago

Slackadays commented 1 year ago

I'm interested in CPA supporting all the popular BSDs. However, DragonFlyBSD is one that isn't supported yet. I'd like for us to be able to easily build software for DragonFly automatically, so it makes sense that CPA should support it.

Also, I think this action is one of the coolest things on GitHub 🚀 since the alternative is a bunch of bespoke hacks.

Yes, DragonFlyBSD is on my todo list.

I'm not that familiar with DragonFlyBSD, do you know if it supports non-interactive installations?

Thanks 😄.

I'm looking at the installation page and while it doesn't actually claim DFB can be installed non-interactively, it does claim that pressing nothing but Enter gets you through the manual installer just fine. See https://www.dragonflybsd.org/docs/handbook/Installation/ so maybe you could make a script that "presses" nothing but Enter.

It's fine, a interactive installation works too, it's just a bit more work.
