Python 3: Password Input Prompt

Create animated video greeting cards and presentations with Sailboat Video Maker for iOS

On all versions of Python 3, we can use the getpass module from the built-in Python Standard Library to prompt the user to enter a password.

The user's password will not show up on-screen while the user is typing it.

from getpass import getpass

password = getpass( 'Password: ' )

1
2
3

from getpass import getpass

password = getpass( 'Password: ' )

We can replace 'Password: ' in the code above with any message that we want to show before the password input cursor.
