According to this StackOverflow thread about piping input, running echo "yes" | command should pass yes to the first prompt of a command. However, echo "yes" | python manage.py flush produces the error 

EOFError: EOF when reading a line.

I suspect that manage.py is requesting more than one line of input. Is there a reason you can't use

 python manage.py flush --no-input

as documented?
