Since releasing the conjure-up snap I have gotten a few questions as to why we have to pass in --classic when the snapcraft.yaml defines the confinement mode already.
I understand that this is similar to if a user was to snap install a snap that was strictly devmode. We do want make the user aware of what they are installing and any possible caveats that go along with that. Forcing the use of --classic and --devmode make sense in the overall picture, however, cosmetically and user happiness (i guess?) this just seems like a _lot_ of typing. So I'm not arguing the use of --classic or --devmode but what if we take another approach and treat both --classic and --devmode as a 'force/yes' in the apt world and provide a simple Y/n prompt asking the user if they are sure they wish to install said snap because of it's current confinement mode? I much rather advertise running: $ snap install conjure-up And the experience be: Fetching info..checking confinement mode.. This is a classic snap, are you sure you wish to continue? [Y/n] conjure-up installed Thoughts?
