Nope. Fabric's not an expect clone, nor does it know how to move the mouse or anything :) > or maybe add something in the > command to make it default accept? This is always the right answer (for any scripting tool -- not just Fabric.) You need to understand the installer well enough to figure out how to script it so it can be run non-interactively. For example, on Debian Linux systems you can use the "debconf" system to pre-set any question an installer might try to prompt you for. Takes a little bit of researching to find out which settings those are for the package in question, but it is definitely doable. Sometimes it's enough just to tell the package manager to run non-interactively (e.g. DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install xyz) or to give it a "always say yes please" flag like -y. Many packages will look at these hints and skip prompting you entirely. But again, this is all 100% Fabric agnostic and depends entirely on your remote system :) Good luck, Jeff -- Jeff Forcier Unix sysadmin; Python/Ruby engineer http://bitprophet.org _______________________________________________ Fab-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fab-user
