Expose non-interactive option to CLI help

[mischah]

That’s it

Related to #1162
Having that option in the CLI help would have saved my a few minutes.

Was actually under the impression it's --non-interactive. I might be wrong but the changelog mentions it 🤔 What also should work is --config.interactive=false

[mischah]

Sorry. I double checked it a few minutes ago.

Both of these don’t prevent prompts:

bower install  --no-interactive
bower install  --non-interactive

But this do:

bower install --config.interactive=false

Going to force push this change in a minute.

Done. But I’m not sure if this feels right.

Should it be:

{
  "flag":        "--config",
  "description": "Set and override settings from .bowerrc eg. `--config.interactive=false`"
}

instead of:

{
  "flag":        "--config.interactive=false",
  "description": "Disable prompts"
}

I’m totally confused cause according to 8f0a3d7 (PR: #1969) there should be a --non-interactive option 😕

I have currently no time to dig deeper in the sources.

Please let me now if you want any changes to this PR.

Is there anything I can do to help to get this merged?

[benmann]

I was just hoping for some more opinions, as I understand your feeling that it doesn't seem entirely "right" using --config. However I think it's an often needed/looked up feature, so I'm cool with merging this. Can you squash the commits (or somehow re-trigger the CI)?

[mischah]

We could wait for a few days if there are other opinions especially about that comment above: #2404 (comment)

[mischah]

Any additional feedback? Will this get merged?

Going to close this otherwise 😗
