rails run shell command with user input
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I want to run shell command from rails app controller.
My app code is:
cmd = "openssl genrsa -des3 -out testfolder/testkey.key 1024"
system cmd
than shell will ask me password, so if you run this command from terminal you can input password, but if I run from controller I can't.
I don't want to use rails OPENSSL, for some reasons.
I tried to google but I have no result.
Also I tried something like this:
cmd = "openssl genrsa -des3 -out testfolder/testkey.key 1024"
system cmd
system 'echo', '111111Passs'
This is not solution of my problem.
My question is:
how to pass password from controller to shell?
Than how I can submit this command? (simulate press on ENTER on my keyboard)
Thanks

You can try passing the passphase through an argument (not recommended):
openssl genrsa -des3 -out testfolder/testkey.key -passout pass:SECRET_PASS 1024
A more secure option is to write the passphrase to a temporary file and use this:
openssl genrsa -des3 -out testfolder/testkey.key -passout file:passphrase.txt 1024
Answer shamelessly lifted from this SO thread which has much more detail and better explanations.
