如何在Python中将标准输出重定向到任意文件?

When a long-running Python script (e.g, web application) is started from within the ssh session and backgounded, and the ssh session is closed, the application will raise IOError and fail the moment it tries to write to stdout. I needed to find a way to make the application and modules output to a file rather than stdout to prevent failure due to IOError. Currently, I employ nohup to redirect output to a file, and that gets the job done, but I was wondering if there was a way to do it without using nohup, out of curiosity.

我已经试过了。Stdout = open('somefile', 'w'),但这似乎并没有阻止一些外部模块仍然输出到终端(或者sys. exe)。Stdout =…Line根本没有开火)。我知道它应该在我测试过的更简单的脚本上工作,但我还没有时间在web应用程序上进行测试。


当前回答

如果您想在Python脚本中进行重定向,请设置sys. exe。对文件对象的Stdout是有用的:

# for python3
import sys
with open('file', 'w') as sys.stdout:
    print('test')

一个更常见的方法是在执行时使用shell重定向(在Windows和Linux上相同):

$ python3 foo.py > file

其他回答

其他答案不包括您希望分叉进程共享您的新标准输出的情况。

做那件事:

from os import open, close, dup, O_WRONLY

old = dup(1)
close(1)
open("file", O_WRONLY) # should open on 1

..... do stuff and then restore

close(1)
dup(old) # should dup to 1
close(old) # get rid of left overs

Python 3.4+中有contextlib.redirect_stdout()函数:

from contextlib import redirect_stdout

with open('help.txt', 'w') as f:
    with redirect_stdout(f):
        print('it now prints to `help.text`')

它类似于:

import sys
from contextlib import contextmanager

@contextmanager
def redirect_stdout(new_target):
    old_target, sys.stdout = sys.stdout, new_target # replace sys.stdout
    try:
        yield new_target # run some code with the replaced stdout
    finally:
        sys.stdout = old_target # restore to the previous value

可以在早期的Python版本中使用。后一个版本是不可重用的。如果需要,它可以成为一个。

它不会在文件描述符级别重定向标准输出,例如:

import os
from contextlib import redirect_stdout

stdout_fd = sys.stdout.fileno()
with open('output.txt', 'w') as f, redirect_stdout(f):
    print('redirected to a file')
    os.write(stdout_fd, b'not redirected')
    os.system('echo this also is not redirected')

B 'not重定向'和'echo this also is not重定向'不会重定向到output.txt文件。

要在文件描述符级别重定向,可以使用os.dup2():

import os
import sys
from contextlib import contextmanager

def fileno(file_or_fd):
    fd = getattr(file_or_fd, 'fileno', lambda: file_or_fd)()
    if not isinstance(fd, int):
        raise ValueError("Expected a file (`.fileno()`) or a file descriptor")
    return fd

@contextmanager
def stdout_redirected(to=os.devnull, stdout=None):
    if stdout is None:
       stdout = sys.stdout

    stdout_fd = fileno(stdout)
    # copy stdout_fd before it is overwritten
    #NOTE: `copied` is inheritable on Windows when duplicating a standard stream
    with os.fdopen(os.dup(stdout_fd), 'wb') as copied: 
        stdout.flush()  # flush library buffers that dup2 knows nothing about
        try:
            os.dup2(fileno(to), stdout_fd)  # $ exec >&to
        except ValueError:  # filename
            with open(to, 'wb') as to_file:
                os.dup2(to_file.fileno(), stdout_fd)  # $ exec > to
        try:
            yield stdout # allow code to be run with the redirected stdout
        finally:
            # restore stdout to its previous value
            #NOTE: dup2 makes stdout_fd inheritable unconditionally
            stdout.flush()
            os.dup2(copied.fileno(), stdout_fd)  # $ exec >&copied

如果使用stdout_redirected()而不是redirect_stdout(),同样的例子现在也可以工作:

import os
import sys

stdout_fd = sys.stdout.fileno()
with open('output.txt', 'w') as f, stdout_redirected(f):
    print('redirected to a file')
    os.write(stdout_fd, b'it is redirected now\n')
    os.system('echo this is also redirected')
print('this is goes back to stdout')

只要stdout_redirect()上下文管理器处于活动状态,以前在stdout上打印的输出现在就会转到output.txt。

注意:stdout.flush()不刷新 Python 3上的C stdio缓冲区,其中I/O直接在read()/write()系统调用上实现。要刷新所有打开的C stdio输出流,如果某些C扩展使用基于stdio的I/O,可以显式调用libc.fflush(None):

try:
    import ctypes
    from ctypes.util import find_library
except ImportError:
    libc = None
else:
    try:
        libc = ctypes.cdll.msvcrt # Windows
    except OSError:
        libc = ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary(find_library('c'))

def flush(stream):
    try:
        libc.fflush(None)
        stream.flush()
    except (AttributeError, ValueError, IOError):
        pass # unsupported

你可以使用stdout参数重定向其他流,而不仅仅是sys。标准输出,例如,合并sys。Stderr和sys.stdout:

def merged_stderr_stdout():  # $ exec 2>&1
    return stdout_redirected(to=sys.stdout, stdout=sys.stderr)

例子:

from __future__ import print_function
import sys

with merged_stderr_stdout():
     print('this is printed on stdout')
     print('this is also printed on stdout', file=sys.stderr)

注:stdout_redirects()混合缓冲I/O (sys。通常是stdout)和非缓冲I/O(直接对文件描述符进行操作)。注意,可能存在缓冲问题。

要回答这个问题,您的编辑:您可以使用Python -daemon来守护脚本,并使用日志记录模块(如@erikb85所建议的),而不是打印语句,并仅为您现在使用nohup运行的长时间运行的Python脚本重定向stdout。

你可以尝试更好的方法

import sys

class Logger(object):
    def __init__(self, filename="Default.log"):
        self.terminal = sys.stdout
        self.log = open(filename, "a")

    def write(self, message):
        self.terminal.write(message)
        self.log.write(message)

sys.stdout = Logger("yourlogfilename.txt")
print "Hello world !" # this is should be saved in yourlogfilename.txt

如果您想在Python脚本中进行重定向,请设置sys. exe。对文件对象的Stdout是有用的:

# for python3
import sys
with open('file', 'w') as sys.stdout:
    print('test')

一个更常见的方法是在执行时使用shell重定向(在Windows和Linux上相同):

$ python3 foo.py > file

引用自PEP 343 -“with”语句(添加了import语句):

临时重定向标准输出:

import sys
from contextlib import contextmanager
@contextmanager
def stdout_redirected(new_stdout):
    save_stdout = sys.stdout
    sys.stdout = new_stdout
    try:
        yield None
    finally:
        sys.stdout = save_stdout

用途如下:

with open(filename, "w") as f:
    with stdout_redirected(f):
        print "Hello world"

当然,这不是线程安全的,但手动执行相同的操作也不是。在单线程程序(例如脚本)中,这是一种流行的做事方式。
