Hi,
First of all thank you to both on this thread, appreciated and the
applause :)
I have updated the function as below:
I run -
withlist --all --run list_mod.change_moderator_password2
first.lastn...@domain.co.uk
Function:
def change_moderator_password2(mlist, moderator):
mlist.Lock()
try:
if mlist.moderator[mlist.moderator.index(moderator)]: '
newpassword = subprocess.check_output(
["pwgen", "-sB", "15", "1"]).strip()
except:
print("password not changed for", (mlist.real_name, moderator))
mlist.Save()
From what I can see this is not working as expected, the moderator
address I'm trying to change the password is on the list named
'Test4-list1'.
root@lists-test4:~/scripts# withlist --all --run
list_mod.change_moderator_password2 firstname.lastn...@domain.co.uk
Importing list_mod...
Running list_mod.change_moderator_password2()...

Unlocking (but not saving) list: test4-list2
Finalizing
Apologies, you'll have to bear with me, I'm slowly learning Python.
Many thanks
Daniel

I think
newpassword = subprocess.run(["pwgen", "-sB", "15", "1"],
capture_output=True,
text=True).stdout
will do the trick (be careful about text=True, though; you may want
the default text=False so that stdout will be bytes instead of str).
Except that's Python 3 and this is Mailman 2.1 withlist so the script
needs to be Python 2. For that we would want
newpassword = subprocess.check_output(
["pwgen", "-sB", "15", "1"]).strip()
The .strip() is to remove a trailing newline.
