我想编写一个函数,该函数将执行shell命令并将其输出作为字符串返回,无论它是错误消息还是成功消息。我只想得到和用命令行得到的相同的结果。

什么样的代码示例可以做到这一点呢?

例如:

def run_command(cmd):
    # ??????

print run_command('mysqladmin create test -uroot -pmysqladmin12')
# Should output something like:
# mysqladmin: CREATE DATABASE failed; error: 'Can't create database 'test'; database exists'

例如,execute('ls -ahl') 区分三/四种可能的回报和操作系统平台:

没有输出,但运行成功 输出空行,运行成功 运行失败 输出一些东西,成功运行

下面的函数

def execute(cmd, output=True, DEBUG_MODE=False):
"""Executes a bash command.
(cmd, output=True)
output: whether print shell output to screen, only affects screen display, does not affect returned values
return: ...regardless of output=True/False...
        returns shell output as a list with each elment is a line of string (whitespace stripped both sides) from output
        could be 
        [], ie, len()=0 --> no output;    
        [''] --> output empty line;     
        None --> error occured, see below

        if error ocurs, returns None (ie, is None), print out the error message to screen
"""
if not DEBUG_MODE:
    print "Command: " + cmd

    # https://stackoverflow.com/a/40139101/2292993
    def _execute_cmd(cmd):
        if os.name == 'nt' or platform.system() == 'Windows':
            # set stdin, out, err all to PIPE to get results (other than None) after run the Popen() instance
            p = subprocess.Popen(cmd, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, shell=True)
        else:
            # Use bash; the default is sh
            p = subprocess.Popen(cmd, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, shell=True, executable="/bin/bash")

        # the Popen() instance starts running once instantiated (??)
        # additionally, communicate(), or poll() and wait process to terminate

其他回答

根据@senderle的说法,如果你像我一样使用python3.6:

def sh(cmd, input=""):
    rst = subprocess.run(cmd, shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, input=input.encode("utf-8"))
    assert rst.returncode == 0, rst.stderr.decode("utf-8")
    return rst.stdout.decode("utf-8")
sh("ls -a")

将完全像您在bash中运行命令一样

下面是一个简单而灵活的解决方案,适用于各种操作系统版本,以及Python 2和3,在shell模式下使用IPython:

from IPython.terminal.embed import InteractiveShellEmbed
my_shell = InteractiveShellEmbed()
result = my_shell.getoutput("echo hello world")
print(result)

Out: ['hello world']

它有几个优点

它只需要安装IPython,所以在使用它时,你真的不需要担心特定的Python或操作系统版本,它附带Jupyter -具有广泛的支持 它默认接受一个简单的字符串-所以不需要使用shell模式参数或字符串拆分,使它在我看来稍微干净一些 它还使替换变量甚至字符串本身的整个Python命令更加干净


为了演示:

var = "hello world "
result = my_shell.getoutput("echo {var*2}")
print(result)

Out: ['hello world hello world']

只是想给你一个额外的选择,特别是如果你已经安装了Jupyter

当然,如果你在一个实际的Jupyter笔记本,而不是一个.py脚本,你也可以总是这样做:

result = !echo hello world
print(result)

为了达到同样的目的。

就像这样:

def runProcess(exe):    
    p = subprocess.Popen(exe, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)
    while(True):
        # returns None while subprocess is running
        retcode = p.poll() 
        line = p.stdout.readline()
        yield line
        if retcode is not None:
            break

注意,我将stderr重定向到stdout,这可能不是你想要的,但我也想要错误消息。

这个函数一行一行地输出(通常你必须等待子进程完成才能得到完整的输出)。

对于你的情况,用法是:

for line in runProcess('mysqladmin create test -uroot -pmysqladmin12'.split()):
    print line,

可以将输出重定向到文本文件,然后将其读回来。

import subprocess
import os
import tempfile

def execute_to_file(command):
    """
    This function execute the command
    and pass its output to a tempfile then read it back
    It is usefull for process that deploy child process
    """
    temp_file = tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile(delete=False)
    temp_file.close()
    path = temp_file.name
    command = command + " > " + path
    proc = subprocess.run(command, shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, universal_newlines=True)
    if proc.stderr:
        # if command failed return
        os.unlink(path)
        return
    with open(path, 'r') as f:
        data = f.read()
    os.unlink(path)
    return data

if __name__ == "__main__":
    path = "Somepath"
    command = 'ecls.exe /files ' + path
    print(execute(command))

这要简单得多,但只适用于Unix(包括Cygwin)和Python2.7。

import commands
print commands.getstatusoutput('wc -l file')

它返回一个元组(return_value, output)。

对于在Python2和Python3中都可以工作的解决方案,请使用subprocess模块:

from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
output = Popen(["date"],stdout=PIPE)
response = output.communicate()
print response
