Is there any way to automate the installation of this software using shell script? The problem is that I have to press ENTER and type YES twice and I am not sure how to use these 4 steps.

wget https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge/releases/download/4.8.3-4/Miniforge3-Linux-aarch64.sh

bash Miniforge3-Linux-aarch64.sh

When I run the command mentioned above, I have these 4 steps:

 press ENTER
 type YES
 press ENTER
 type YES

I want to add this installation as a shell script in docker file or (if possible) directly in dockerfile.

Like this:

chmod +x Miniforge3-Linux-aarch64.sh
./Miniforge3-Linux-aarch64.sh -b

(batch mode).

Check:

./Miniforge3-Linux-aarch64.sh -h

-b run install in batch mode (without manual intervention), it is expected the license terms are agreed upon

You could use the functions expect & send from the package expect.

    True esp. on Ubuntu it adds a lot of other packages to the system (up to 150+ MB; on Arch it was ~3MB due to depending on Tcl and 300kB for the package itself). Just thought it might be helpful in case there are other dependencies requiring interaction, not having a batch mode. – SomeUsername1 Jul 05 '20 at 03:01
