对于Jython，我发现获得操作系统名称的唯一方法是检查os.name Java属性(在WinXP上尝试使用sys, os和平台模块的Jython 2.5.3):

def get_os_platform():
    """return platform name, but for Jython it uses os.name Java property"""
    ver = sys.platform.lower()
    if ver.startswith('java'):
        import java.lang
        ver = java.lang.System.getProperty("os.name").lower()
    print('platform: %s' % (ver))
    return ver

如果你想要用户可读的数据但仍然是详细的，你可以使用platform.platform()

>>> import platform
>>> platform.platform()
'Linux-3.3.0-8.fc16.x86_64-x86_64-with-fedora-16-Verne'

这里有几个不同的调用，你可以用它来确定你的位置，linux_distribution和dist在最近的python版本中被删除了。

import platform
import sys

def linux_distribution():
  try:
    return platform.linux_distribution()
  except:
    return "N/A"

def dist():
  try:
    return platform.dist()
  except:
    return "N/A"

print("""Python version: %s
dist: %s
linux_distribution: %s
system: %s
machine: %s
platform: %s
uname: %s
version: %s
mac_ver: %s
""" % (
sys.version.split('\n'),
str(dist()),
linux_distribution(),
platform.system(),
platform.machine(),
platform.platform(),
platform.uname(),
platform.version(),
platform.mac_ver(),
))

此脚本的输出运行在一些不同的系统(Linux, Windows, Solaris, MacOS)和架构(x86, x64, Itanium, power pc, sparc)上，可在这里获得:https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild/wiki/OS_flavor_name_version

Ubuntu 12.04服务器为例给出:

Python version: ['2.6.5 (r265:79063, Oct  1 2012, 22:04:36) ', '[GCC 4.4.3]']
dist: ('Ubuntu', '10.04', 'lucid')
linux_distribution: ('Ubuntu', '10.04', 'lucid')
system: Linux
machine: x86_64
platform: Linux-2.6.32-32-server-x86_64-with-Ubuntu-10.04-lucid
uname: ('Linux', 'xxx', '2.6.32-32-server', '#62-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 20 22:07:43 UTC 2011', 'x86_64', '')
version: #62-Ubuntu SMP Wed Apr 20 22:07:43 UTC 2011
mac_ver: ('', ('', '', ''), '')

使用platform.system ()

返回系统/操作系统名称，例如'Linux'， 'Darwin'， 'Java'， 'Windows'。如果无法确定该值，则返回空字符串。

import platform
system = platform.system().lower()

is_windows = system == 'windows'
is_linux = system == 'linux'
is_mac = system == 'darwin'

试试这个:

import os

os.uname()

你可以这样做:

info=os.uname()
info[0]
info[1]

这个解决方案适用于python和jython。

模块os_identify.py:

import platform
import os

# This module contains functions to determine the basic type of
# OS we are running on.
# Contrary to the functions in the `os` and `platform` modules,
# these allow to identify the actual basic OS,
# no matter whether running on the `python` or `jython` interpreter.

def is_linux():
    try:
        platform.linux_distribution()
        return True
    except:
        return False

def is_windows():
    try:
        platform.win32_ver()
        return True
    except:
        return False

def is_mac():
    try:
        platform.mac_ver()
        return True
    except:
        return False

def name():
    if is_linux():
        return "Linux"
    elif is_windows():
        return "Windows"
    elif is_mac():
        return "Mac"
    else:
        return "<unknown>" 

像这样使用:

import os_identify

print "My OS: " + os_identify.name()

使用Python区分操作系统的示例代码:

import sys

if sys.platform.startswith("linux"):  # could be "linux", "linux2", "linux3", ...
    # linux
elif sys.platform == "darwin":
    # MAC OS X
elif os.name == "nt":
    # Windows, Cygwin, etc. (either 32-bit or 64-bit)
