Hi
I have a question
Is it possible to force Snappy Driver Installer (e.g. with a script)
to download driver indexes and if missing drivers were detected, it would download and automatically install without displaying the SDI GUI
Operating System : Windows 10
A whole set of command line options is presented here:
Command Line Usage
I used Google for you:
snappy driver command line
Hope that's of some use.- there is a script already there that may do what you want.
The Snappy Driver website was the first place I looked however either I can't set it up or it just doesn't work
That's why I decided to write a topic
Downloading Drivers via SDI will be part of a larger configuration script for Windows 10 so it is best if it works without a GUI
Do you install the missing drivers?
Yes or No
if you choose Yes
Snappy will be downloaded using powershell and will only install the missing drivers
if you choose NO , it will go to the next step of the script so more or less he wants it to work
It always helps to explaing what ground you've already covered when writing your post.
Thank you for your reply.
the main problem is downloading driver indexes from the command line because it is downloaded via the torrent network, which in the script will cause problems the same launch without gui I already know how to use, but for downloading indexes using command line I have no idea how to get it working properly
Possibly another solution, if someone has enough programming skills, a script that would search for missing drivers by Hardware ID in the databases
Drp.su or https://www.station-drivers.com/
automatically downloaded and installed them

Just make sure you use the better version - Snappy Driver Installer (SDI) Origin (not the one from sdi-tool.org).
I can only point you to the extensive reference document SDIO Reference Manual.pdf in the Snappy Driver installation folder along with the sample scripts in the folder there.
This example script presented as mahalo-test.txt offers:
# Title: The Mahalo Test
# Author: Glenn Delahoy
# Description: Updates to the latest application, indexes and driver packs.
Unless someone knows a program that allows you to download drivers via the command line and has its own database of updated drivers and could be a good solution to the script
