Option selection in dockerfile/shell command

Question

I am building a dockerfile that following commands:

RUN sudo apt-get install python-pip -y && \
    pip install --upgrade pip && \
    pip install qibuild 

RUN qibuild config --wizard -1 -2

Now in qibuild wizard. I have following:

qibuild config --wizard

Answer 'no' if you installed qtcreator from Nokia's installer (Y/n)
> Y

I want to make selection 1,2 and Y from dockerfile only.

I have already tried: qibuild config --wizard -1 as well as qibuild config --wizard &&1

But docker script fails at selection. How to I make such selection?

`RUN printf "%s\n" "1" "2" "Y" | qibuild config --wizard -1 -2` — KamilCuk, Aug 03 '20 at 13:47
@KamilCuk Your command did do something but I am not sure if it selected them or not printf "%s\n" "1" "2" "Y" | qibuild config --wizard Found CMake: /usr/local/bin/cmake :: Please choose a generator 1 Unix Makefiles (default) > :: Please choose an IDE 1 None (default) 2 QtCreator 3 Eclipse CDT > :: Found QtCreator: /usr/bin/qtcreator :: Do you want to use qtcreator from /usr/bin/qtcreator?
