System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

SUDO_ASKPASS enables non-interactive sudo operations by providing a helper that supplies credentials when a password prompt would normally appear.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Non-interactive elevation: Run sudo commands in scripts without manual prompts.
  • CI/CD and headless environments: Suitable for automated pipelines where TTY access is unavailable.
  • Flexible credential sources: Reads credentials from an environment variable or a file for automation.

Quick Start

Set the SUDO_ASKPASS environment variable to the path of the askpass.sh script and run sudo commands with -A.
