I need help calling a file from a python script. The file executes some commands that I need to run from python.

import subprocess

name = open(“filename.bat”, “r”)
subprocess.run(name)

I see no output. Nothing happens. If I do print I see the complete file but I need to execute commands it has. Any help is appreciated

import subprocess

name = open(“filename.bat”, “r”)
subprocess.run(name)
