Idea: Add method / functionality to require all variables

[luiavila]

Description

Currently, tasks that utilize many variables causes a lot of redundant typing of the required variable

tasks:
  MY_TASK_W_LOTS_OF_OPTIONS:
    requires: [OPTION_A, OPTION_B, OPTION_C, OPTION_D, OPTION E, OPTION F ......]
    cmds:
      - make some_recipe A={{.OPTION_A}} B={{.OPTION_B}} C={{.OPTION_C}} D={{.OPTION_D}} E={{.OPTION_E}} F={{.OPTION_F}} .....

Desire is to create a global or task level option to require all variables

Possible solutions:

tasks:
  MY_TASK_W_LOTS_OF_OPTIONS:
    requires: "*"
    cmds:
      - make some_recipe A={{.OPTION_A}} B={{.OPTION_B}} C={{.OPTION_C}} D={{.OPTION_D}} E={{.OPTION_E}} F={{.OPTION_F}} .....

tasks:
  MY_TASK_W_LOTS_OF_OPTIONS:
    require-all: True
    cmds:
      - make some_recipe A={{.OPTION_A}} B={{.OPTION_B}} C={{.OPTION_C}} D={{.OPTION_D}} E={{.OPTION_E}} F={{.OPTION_F}} .....

@luiavila this is something you could do yourself with the wonderful yq tool (https://github.com/mikefarah/yq). The logic would be along the lines: for each tasks, get the name of all vars to a list, write the list to requires.

Then define a task to rewrite your taskfile with the correction.
