How to automate 10updocker create

Describe your question

Hey all,
I'd like to automate my WP devstack install using a single shell script.

Unfortunately, I was not able to automate the 10updocker create command so far. The issue is with responding to the interactive prompts.

I tried using echo and printf, though I was not able to get past the PHP version question.

This gets me past the first two questions...

printf "sitename.test\n n" | 10updocker create

Any ideas on how to automate it all without installing extra packages?

Thanks a lot!

There are a few options here.

• Create a template for projects that already contains the necessary bits for wp-local-docker and maybe all you need to do is search/replace relevant files
• Create an expect script to create the environment and answer each question - https://linux.die.net/man/1/expect
• Dig into wp-local-docker code and create command line options for each question that can be passed on the cli. We would definitely consider a PR with that functionality
