How can I enter a password in the middle?

Open fantian007 opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Suppose I start A and B simultaneously. If A requires a password input midway, how can I prevent the logs of B from covering the input? Or how can I make B pause and wait until the input is completed?

Hey. There's not much that can be done within concurrently today, any solutions I can think of would involve changing your inputs and might be brittle.

It's also not like concurrently could just detect that the command is waiting for input, as stdin should be open all the time, just ignored until it's expected.

I'm happy to learn if other tools solved this in a creative way though!
