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

    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
        # communicate() accepts optional input as stdin to the pipe (requires setting stdin=subprocess.PIPE above), return out, err as tuple
        # if communicate(), the results are buffered in memory

        # Read stdout from subprocess until the buffer is empty !
        # if error occurs, the stdout is '', which means the below loop is essentially skipped
        # A prefix of 'b' or 'B' is ignored in Python 2; 
        # it indicates that the literal should become a bytes literal in Python 3 
        # (e.g. when code is automatically converted with 2to3).
        # return iter(p.stdout.readline, b'')
        for line in iter(p.stdout.readline, b''):
            # # Windows has \r\n, Unix has \n, Old mac has \r
            # if line not in ['','\n','\r','\r\n']: # Don't print blank lines
                yield line
        while p.poll() is None:                                                                                                                                        
            sleep(.1) #Don't waste CPU-cycles
        # Empty STDERR buffer
        err = p.stderr.read()
        if p.returncode != 0:
            # responsible for logging STDERR 
            print("Error: " + str(err))
            yield None

    out = []
    for line in _execute_cmd(cmd):
        # error did not occur earlier
        if line is not None:
            # trailing comma to avoid a newline (by print itself) being printed
            if output: print line,
            out.append(line.strip())
        else:
            # error occured earlier
            out = None
    return out
else:
    print "Simulation! The command is " + cmd
    print ""

这是一个棘手但超级简单的解决方案，适用于许多情况:

import os
os.system('sample_cmd > tmp')
print(open('tmp', 'r').read())

使用命令的输出创建一个临时文件(这里是tmp)，您可以从中读取所需的输出。

备注: 如果是一次性作业，可以删除tmp文件。如果需要多次执行此操作，则不需要删除tmp。

os.remove('tmp')

对于相同的问题，我有一个稍微不同的需求:

捕获并返回STDOUT消息，因为它们在STDOUT缓冲区中累积(即实时)。 @vartec用python方法解决了这个问题，他使用生成器和“yield” 上面的字 打印所有STDOUT行(即使进程在STDOUT缓冲区可以完全读取之前退出) 不要浪费CPU周期以高频轮询进程 检查子流程的返回代码 如果得到非零错误返回码，则打印STDERR(与STDOUT分开)。

我综合了之前的答案，得出了以下结论:

import subprocess
from time import sleep

def run_command(command):
    p = subprocess.Popen(command,
                         stdout=subprocess.PIPE,
                         stderr=subprocess.PIPE,
                         shell=True)
    # Read stdout from subprocess until the buffer is empty !
    for line in iter(p.stdout.readline, b''):
        if line: # Don't print blank lines
            yield line
    # This ensures the process has completed, AND sets the 'returncode' attr
    while p.poll() is None:                                                                                                                                        
        sleep(.1) #Don't waste CPU-cycles
    # Empty STDERR buffer
    err = p.stderr.read()
    if p.returncode != 0:
       # The run_command() function is responsible for logging STDERR 
       print("Error: " + str(err))

这段代码的执行方式与前面的答案相同:

for line in run_command(cmd):
    print(line)

我也遇到了同样的问题，但我想出了一个非常简单的方法:

import subprocess
output = subprocess.getoutput("ls -l")
print(output)

注意:此解决方案是特定于Python3的subprocess.getoutput()在Python2中不起作用

可以使用以下命令运行任何shell命令。我在ubuntu上使用过它们。

import os
os.popen('your command here').read()

注意:自python 2.6起已弃用。现在必须使用subprocess.Popen。下面是示例

import subprocess

p = subprocess.Popen("Your command", shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE).communicate()[0]
print p.split("\n")

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。
