Enter response once prompt returns?
- by mjb
It's neither a secure idea nor one I'd recommend elsewhere, but I have a situation when occasionally it takes a while for my Ansible ad-hoc command to respond. I'd love to pipe or args or whatever is needed to push the required text into the prompt so I can walk away and know it will finish.
Ex:
$ ansible all -m shell -a "reboot" --ask-pass
Password:
blah blah blah it worked
I'd love to send an argument or << or something to get the password in. Is that possible?
