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

不是第一个，也可能不是最后一个，我已经构建了一个包，它使用两种不同的方法执行非阻塞标准输出PIPE读取，一种是基于J.F. Sebastian (@jfs)的答案，另一种是一个简单的communication()循环，使用线程检查超时。

两种标准输出捕获方法都在Linux和Windows下进行了测试，截至撰写本文时，Python版本从2.7到3.9

由于它是非阻塞的，它保证了超时强制，即使有多个子进程和孙子进程，甚至在Python 2.7下也是如此。

该包还处理字节和文本标准输出编码，当试图捕获EOF时，这是一个噩梦。

您可以在https://github.com/netinvent/command_runner上找到该软件包

如果你需要一些经过良好测试的非阻塞读取实现，可以尝试一下(或修改代码):

pip install command_runner

from command_runner import command_runner

exit_code, output = command_runner('ping 127.0.0.1', timeout=3)
exit_code, output = command_runner('echo hello world, shell=True)
exit_code, output = command_runner('some command', stdout='some_file')

您可以在_poll_process()或_monitor_process()中找到核心的非阻塞读取代码，这取决于所使用的捕获方法。 在此基础上，您可以实现自己想要的功能，或者简单地使用整个包作为子进程替换来执行命令。

You can do this really easily in Twisted. Depending upon your existing code base, this might not be that easy to use, but if you are building a twisted application, then things like this become almost trivial. You create a ProcessProtocol class, and override the outReceived() method. Twisted (depending upon the reactor used) is usually just a big select() loop with callbacks installed to handle data from different file descriptors (often network sockets). So the outReceived() method is simply installing a callback for handling data coming from STDOUT. A simple example demonstrating this behavior is as follows:

from twisted.internet import protocol, reactor

class MyProcessProtocol(protocol.ProcessProtocol):

    def outReceived(self, data):
        print data

proc = MyProcessProtocol()
reactor.spawnProcess(proc, './myprogram', ['./myprogram', 'arg1', 'arg2', 'arg3'])
reactor.run()

Twisted文档在这方面有一些很好的信息。

如果您围绕Twisted构建整个应用程序，它可以与其他进程(本地或远程)进行异步通信，就像这样非常优雅。另一方面，如果您的程序不是构建在Twisted之上，那么这真的不会有多大帮助。希望这能对其他读者有所帮助，即使它不适用于您的特定应用程序。

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。

I have often had a similar problem; Python programs I write frequently need to have the ability to execute some primary functionality while simultaneously accepting user input from the command line (stdin). Simply putting the user input handling functionality in another thread doesn't solve the problem because readline() blocks and has no timeout. If the primary functionality is complete and there is no longer any need to wait for further user input I typically want my program to exit, but it can't because readline() is still blocking in the other thread waiting for a line. A solution I have found to this problem is to make stdin a non-blocking file using the fcntl module:

import fcntl
import os
import sys

# make stdin a non-blocking file
fd = sys.stdin.fileno()
fl = fcntl.fcntl(fd, fcntl.F_GETFL)
fcntl.fcntl(fd, fcntl.F_SETFL, fl | os.O_NONBLOCK)

# user input handling thread
while mainThreadIsRunning:
      try: input = sys.stdin.readline()
      except: continue
      handleInput(input)

在我看来，这比使用select或signal模块来解决这个问题要简洁一些，但它只适用于UNIX…

根据J.F. Sebastian的答案和其他几个来源，我组合了一个简单的子流程管理器。它提供了请求的非阻塞读取，以及并行运行几个进程。它不使用任何特定于操作系统的调用(我知道)，因此应该在任何地方工作。

它可以从pypi获得，所以只需pip安装shelljob。参考项目页面的示例和完整的文档。
