Prompt Before package install --- Feature request

skirankumar7 opened this issue · comments

Issue Type:
Request Feature

Current Flow:
As an when the user typed new package in source code plugin checks if plugin installed or not if not present install plugin and compile

Problem with current Flow:
If the user mistakenly gave another package name (some spelling mistakes) or missed / to append or prepend then that package is installing.

Proposed solution:
Before installing package prompt user in the console/ command prompt that is this the correct package you want to install if user confirms install it else compile without installing that package.

Thanks...

having prompt every time will slow down everything even the web packs compilation.
This plugin solves the issue of not opening a terminal and installing each package. So if prompted then the purpose of this plugin won't be applied.

I am 👎 for this
@evilebottnawi thoughts?

I think it is good for option (by default false)
