Totally agree this really would be a killer feature! The original [sudo password issue](https://github.com/Fizzadar/pyinfra/issues/305) has some interesting/relevant comments. I wonder if `SUDO_ASKPASS` being set correctly would solve this at least...

Finally got round to testing this out, unfortunately it doesn’t work :(. Unless explicitly run with `_sudo` the script will hang. There doesn’t appear to be any environment variable to...

Small update on this one: this is on the roadmap for v3. Will initially just be restoring the API docs but I’ll also work on some example code.

https://github.com/pyinfra-dev/pyinfra/commit/5c6b8629501cdee8dbe813006ebbef2a756d5104 puts back the link to the doc properly (https://github.com/pyinfra-dev/pyinfra-examples/blob/main/.old/api_deploy.py). I've also added https://github.com/pyinfra-dev/pyinfra-examples/issues/4 to track updating the example.

Hm, usually sudo should only do one attempt in non interactive mode. This feels like something arch specific, I’ll try to replicate in docker..

@morrison12 would you mind giving me write permissions on this branch? I'll fixup those issues to land this

Yeah this should work, it's a gotcha currently that it doesn't just work as one would expect.

🤦 the regex here has an extra colon on the end: https://github.com/pyinfra-dev/pyinfra/blob/7540c41fa0284b8dd80dcbea24d3616414484d60/pyinfra/api/facts.py#L40

Fixed: https://github.com/pyinfra-dev/pyinfra/commit/924e6444cbedbd125f7baa048600ef74d5c36ad2, released in v2.9.1 just now.
