subprocess and tty input - gw1500se - Jun-26-2019
I'm writing a script that launches a process via Popen that reads a password from the tty rather than stdin. Is there a way to send that string? There is something called Pexpect is that right solution? TIA.

you may want to look at https://pypi.org/project/autologin/

Thanks for the suggestion. However, I think pexpect is doing mostly what I want. I am having an issue collecting the command output but I will open a new thread for that.
