Setting database admin password programmatically

[Dr. Praveen Bhatia]

Hi,

    I have written a convoluted program like this to set the password of the database admin which then prompts for the password. 

import trytond

import trytond.admin

class Mytest() : 

    def __init__(self) :

        self.database_names=[ 'mydb']

        self.update=''

        self.languages=''

        self.update_modules_list=['country']

        self.password='mypassword'        ### Would like this password to be set

xx = Mytest()

trytond.admin.run(xx)

=================

Is there a simpler easier way to set the admin password by code?

You can use the TRYTONPASSFILE environment variable in conjunction with
the trytond-admin --password flag. Running:

trytond-admin --help

Will give the full reference.

Hope it helps.

You can use the TRYTONPASSFILE environment variable in conjunction with
the trytond-admin  --password flag. Running:

trytond-admin --help

I want to do it within the python program and not go to the  cmd shell. The reason is that I am experimenting with the company, and changing the program, dropping the database, creating again and restarting. So going to the command shell every time is irritating.

Then you should call the run [1]method of trytond.admin module.

Hope it helps!

Yes, I am already using it (trytond.admin.run())  in the example code that I wrote above.  ie. 

trytond.admin.run(xx)

It prompts me twice to input and confirm the new password, which is also a little bit irritating for programming in each iteration. 

Is their a better way, when I can just set a fixed password in the program, without having to type a new one twice.

Something like:

setAdminPassword('mypassword')

and I am not prompted for passwords.....

Use the TRYTONDPASSFILE environment variable that should point tk a file that contains the password.

Yes. That worked like a charm...... Thanks !
