Entering password automatically for sudo, ssh (remote command) and scp, like sshpass. However, autopass is a pure Python version script.
No third party module is needed!
$ pip install autopass$ python -m autopass -p'passwd' sudo <command>
$ AUTOPASS='passwd' python -m autopass [-t<N>] ssh user@domain [-p port] <command>-p<passwd>, specify the password.
-t<N>, specify a timeout in seconds. SIGKILL will be issued to
child process after timeout. No timeout by default.
Password would be issued only once and only in the first line of output for security reason. So if the password is not correct, the child process will wait for a long time. This is your chance to set a timeout. Other cases such as a terrible network, an unknown host or the fingerprint of host is not right, etc, might also need a timeout to prevent from waiting too long. You can always place a relatively large timeout value to keep you from waiting like forever.
Password can also be taken from AUTOPASS environment variable.
But the password specified by -p has priority.
$ export AUTOPASS='passwd'
$ python -m autopass <passwd-needed-command>Autopass is a simple tool only for command execution, locally or remotely.
It cannot
be used interactively. And please do not start a background process by
autopass, like -f option of ssh. It is an error. But you definitely
could run autopass with command as a whole in background (by &).
Exit code of the executed command is returned properly, you can
use echo $? in your shell script to check if the command execution
is successful.
Have fun... ^____^
