我使用subprocess模块启动子流程并连接到其输出流(标准输出)。我希望能够对其标准输出执行非阻塞读取。是否有一种方法使.readline非阻塞或在我调用.readline之前检查流上是否有数据?我希望这是可移植的,或者至少可以在Windows和Linux下工作。

下面是我现在怎么做的(如果没有数据可用,它会阻塞在.readline上):

p = subprocess.Popen('myprogram.exe', stdout = subprocess.PIPE)
output_str = p.stdout.readline()

当前回答

在这里添加这个答案,因为它提供了在Windows和Unix上设置非阻塞管道的能力。

所有的ctypes细节都要感谢@techtonik的回答。

有一个稍微修改过的版本,可以在Unix和Windows系统上使用。

兼容Python3(只需要一些小的修改)。 包括posix版本,并定义了用于这两个版本的异常。

这样你就可以在Unix和Windows代码中使用相同的函数和异常。

我的问题有点不同,因为我想从正在运行的进程中收集stdout和stderr,但最终是一样的,因为我想在小部件生成时在小部件中呈现输出。

我不希望使用队列或额外的线程来解决许多建议的解决方案,因为执行运行另一个脚本并收集其输出这样的常见任务应该不需要它们。

在阅读了建议的解决方案和python文档后,我解决了以下实现的问题。是的,它只适用于POSIX,因为我正在使用select函数调用。

我同意,对于这样一个常见的脚本任务,文档是令人困惑的,实现是尴尬的。我相信旧版本的python对Popen有不同的默认值和不同的解释,所以造成了很多困惑。这似乎对Python 2.7.12和3.5.2都很有效。

关键是将bufsize=1设置为行缓冲,然后universal_newlines=True处理为文本文件而不是二进制文件,这似乎成为设置bufsize=1时的默认值。

ERROR, DEBUG和VERBOSE仅仅是将输出打印到终端的宏。

这个解决方案在我看来是99.99%有效的,因为它仍然使用了阻塞readline函数,所以我们假设子进程很好,输出完整的行。

我欢迎反馈,以改进解决方案,因为我仍然是Python新手。

Fcntl, select, asyncproc在这种情况下不起作用。

不管操作系统如何,读取流而不阻塞的可靠方法是使用Queue.get_nowait():

import sys
from subprocess import PIPE, Popen
from threading  import Thread

try:
    from queue import Queue, Empty
except ImportError:
    from Queue import Queue, Empty  # python 2.x

ON_POSIX = 'posix' in sys.builtin_module_names

def enqueue_output(out, queue):
    for line in iter(out.readline, b''):
        queue.put(line)
    out.close()

p = Popen(['myprogram.exe'], stdout=PIPE, bufsize=1, close_fds=ON_POSIX)
q = Queue()
t = Thread(target=enqueue_output, args=(p.stdout, q))
t.daemon = True # thread dies with the program
t.start()

# ... do other things here

# read line without blocking
try:  line = q.get_nowait() # or q.get(timeout=.1)
except Empty:
    print('no output yet')
else: # got line
    # ... do something with line
