免责声明:这只适用于龙卷风

您可以通过将fd设置为非阻塞，然后使用ioloop来注册回调来实现这一点。我把它打包在一个名为tornado_subprocess的鸡蛋中，你可以通过PyPI安装它:

easy_install tornado_subprocess

现在你可以这样做:

import tornado_subprocess
import tornado.ioloop

    def print_res( status, stdout, stderr ) :
    print status, stdout, stderr
    if status == 0:
        print "OK:"
        print stdout
    else:
        print "ERROR:"
        print stderr

t = tornado_subprocess.Subprocess( print_res, timeout=30, args=[ "cat", "/etc/passwd" ] )
t.start()
tornado.ioloop.IOLoop.instance().start()

你也可以将它与RequestHandler一起使用

class MyHandler(tornado.web.RequestHandler):
    def on_done(self, status, stdout, stderr):
        self.write( stdout )
        self.finish()

    @tornado.web.asynchronous
    def get(self):
        t = tornado_subprocess.Subprocess( self.on_done, timeout=30, args=[ "cat", "/etc/passwd" ] )
        t.start()

这个版本的非阻塞读取不需要特殊的模块，并且可以在大多数Linux发行版上开箱即用。

import os
import sys
import time
import fcntl
import subprocess

def async_read(fd):
    # set non-blocking flag while preserving old flags
    fl = fcntl.fcntl(fd, fcntl.F_GETFL)
    fcntl.fcntl(fd, fcntl.F_SETFL, fl | os.O_NONBLOCK)
    # read char until EOF hit
    while True:
        try:
            ch = os.read(fd.fileno(), 1)
            # EOF
            if not ch: break                                                                                                                                                              
            sys.stdout.write(ch)
        except OSError:
            # waiting for data be available on fd
            pass

def shell(args, async=True):
    # merge stderr and stdout
    proc = subprocess.Popen(args, shell=False, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)
    if async: async_read(proc.stdout)
    sout, serr = proc.communicate()
    return (sout, serr)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    cmd = 'ping 8.8.8.8'
    sout, serr = shell(cmd.split())

下面是我的代码，用于捕获子进程ASAP的每个输出，包括部分行。它同时泵浦，stdout和stderr的顺序几乎是正确的。

在Python 2.7 linux和windows上测试并正确工作。

我基于J. F. Sebastian的解决方案创建了一个库。你可以使用它。

选择模块帮助您确定下一个有用的输入在哪里。

但是，您几乎总是更喜欢使用单独的线程。一个是阻塞读取stdin，另一个是阻塞你不想阻塞的地方。

编辑:这个实现仍然会阻塞。请用j·f·塞巴斯蒂安的答案。

我尝试了上面的答案，但是线程代码的额外风险和维护令人担忧。

通过io模块(仅限于2.6)，我找到了BufferedReader。这是我的无线程、无阻塞的解决方案。

import io
from subprocess import PIPE, Popen

p = Popen(['myprogram.exe'], stdout=PIPE)

SLEEP_DELAY = 0.001

# Create an io.BufferedReader on the file descriptor for stdout
with io.open(p.stdout.fileno(), 'rb', closefd=False) as buffer:
  while p.poll() == None:
      time.sleep(SLEEP_DELAY)
      while '\n' in bufferedStdout.peek(bufferedStdout.buffer_size):
          line = buffer.readline()
          # do stuff with the line

  # Handle any remaining output after the process has ended
  while buffer.peek():
    line = buffer.readline()
    # do stuff with the line
