假设pwd只是一个例子，你可以这样做:

import subprocess

p = subprocess.Popen("pwd", stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
result = p.communicate()[0]
print result

有关另一个示例和更多信息，请参阅子流程文档。

对于python 3.5，我根据前面的回答提出了函数。原木可能被移除，但它很好

import shlex
from subprocess import check_output, CalledProcessError, STDOUT


def cmdline(command):
    log("cmdline:{}".format(command))
    cmdArr = shlex.split(command)
    try:
        output = check_output(cmdArr,  stderr=STDOUT).decode()
        log("Success:{}".format(output))
    except (CalledProcessError) as e:
        output = e.output.decode()
        log("Fail:{}".format(output))
    except (Exception) as e:
        output = str(e);
        log("Fail:{}".format(e))
    return str(output)


def log(msg):
    msg = str(msg)
    d_date = datetime.datetime.now()
    now = str(d_date.strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"))
    print(now + " " + msg)
    if ("LOG_FILE" in globals()):
        with open(LOG_FILE, "a") as myfile:
            myfile.write(now + " " + msg + "\n")

 import os   
 list = os.popen('pwd').read()

在这种情况下，列表中只有一个元素。

这为我重定向stdout工作(stderr可以类似地处理):

from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
pipe = Popen(path, stdout=PIPE)
text = pipe.communicate()[0]

如果它不适合你，请具体说明你的问题。

下面将在单个变量中捕获流程的stdout和stderr。它兼容Python 2和3:

from subprocess import check_output, CalledProcessError, STDOUT

command = ["ls", "-l"]
try:
    output = check_output(command, stderr=STDOUT).decode()
    success = True 
except CalledProcessError as e:
    output = e.output.decode()
    success = False

如果你的命令是一个字符串而不是一个数组，用前缀this:

import shlex
command = shlex.split(command)

Python 2: http://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html#subprocess.Popen

from subprocess import PIPE, Popen

command = "ntpq -p"
process = Popen(command, stdout=PIPE, stderr=None, shell=True)
output = process.communicate()[0]
print output

在Popen构造函数中，如果shell为True，则应该将命令作为字符串而不是序列传递。否则，只需将命令拆分为一个列表:

command = ["ntpq", "-p"]
process = Popen(command, stdout=PIPE, stderr=None)

如果你还需要读取标准错误到Popen初始化中，你应该将stderr设置为PIPE或STDOUT:

command = "ntpq -p"
process = subprocess.Popen(command, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE, shell=True)
output, error = process.communicate()

注意:从Python 2.7开始，你可以/应该利用subprocess。# subprocess.check_output check_output (https://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html)。

Python 3: https://docs.python.org/3/library/subprocess.html#subprocess.Popen

from subprocess import PIPE, Popen

command = "ntpq -p"
with Popen(command, stdout=PIPE, stderr=None, shell=True) as process:
    output = process.communicate()[0].decode("utf-8")
    print(output)

注意:如果你的目标只是Python版本高于或等于3.5，那么你可以/应该利用subprocess.run (https://docs.python.org/3/library/subprocess.html#subprocess.run)。
