Lack of interest switch for xf-addon:create

[AnzahTools]

Hello,

why are there no switches for the xf-addon:create command?
e.g.

xf-addon:create --addon-id xxx/xxx --title xxx --version-id 1000010

I think that would make it easier to create an add-on.

While I’m not against the idea, and I appreciate adding switches makes it possible to run certain commands programmatically, I don’t actually understand why you would claim it is easier?

It clearly isn’t because you would have to know the name of the options, and type out the option names as well as the values for them.

So it actually involves more typing that it would do if you just ran the command and answered the questions.

Easier to type everything at once instead of waiting for the question "Title" and "Enter version id".

I have accidentally invoked those commands with the add-on ID as a parameter... being able to pass the relevant details via the command in one fell swoop would make everything slightly easier.

Yes, the idea behind it was really a script.

When versioning, it can be used very nicely, you can read out the existing version and work with it, then you don't always have to keep the version in mind or look it up again.

For the release I read out the add-on folder and then have a choice.
