Automated Installer Flags #61

Closed mintsoft closed 4 years ago

Hiya, I'm trying to automated some CI builds on Windows and I need to install into the environment in an unattended fashion. Usually /S or /silent etc works, however I can't find any flag to make the installer unattended, do they exist?

If they don't exist can you point me in the direction of the source code for the installer? Happy to implement such flags myself and contribute them back!

Use the normal cygwin installer to install/update cygwin and then extract the archive. See e.g:

https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml-ci-scripts/blob/master/appveyor-install.ps1 https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml-ci-scripts/blob/master/appveyor-opam.sh https://github.com/ocsigen/lwt/blob/master/appveyor.yml https://github.com/coq/coq/blob/master/dev/ci/azure-opam.sh
