I made a script that has an update command running first

for example

sudo apt -y update

I need to make sure that if SYSTEM updates are available , the script will
ask me if i want to update

so

EXCEPTION

the script will check for system updates , if updates are available i will be
asked if i want to update ("Would you like to update? Y/N)

if Y is selected , the script will perform the following command

apt -y upgrade

I am aware that in production areas you do not perform update and upgrades on the fly , but this is only for my set up.

Is it possible to do so using the command - trap , or read command?

Edit from comment:

  Why does not apt upgrade suffice? Also remember that apt is a front end for various other (apt-get and apt-cache comes to mind) programs, and as such it's maybe better to wrap those directly?

  If you run apt upgrade it will ask before performing any changes. Why would this not suffice?

  @vidario is trying to say that if you run: sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade, you will experience the behavior you have described. If you run sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y, you will automatically install updates and it will not ask you for confirmation. It's unclear what you're asking to fix, or what your ultimate goal is.
