典型的实施:

import subprocess

p = subprocess.Popen('ls', shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)
for line in p.stdout.readlines():
    print line,
retval = p.wait()

事实上,你可以简单地忽略这些参数(stdout=和stderr=)并将像os.system()一样行事。

在 Windows 中,您只能输入子过程模块并运行外部命令,以下列方式呼叫 subprocess.Popen(), subprocess.Popen().communicate() 和 subprocess.Popen().wait():

# Python script to run a command line
import subprocess

def execute(cmd):
    """
        Purpose  : To execute a command and return exit status
        Argument : cmd - command to execute
        Return   : exit_code
    """
    process = subprocess.Popen(cmd, shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
    (result, error) = process.communicate()

    rc = process.wait()

    if rc != 0:
        print "Error: failed to execute command:", cmd
        print error
    return result
# def

command = "tasklist | grep python"
print "This process detail: \n", execute(command)

出口:

This process detail:
python.exe                     604 RDP-Tcp#0                  4      5,660 K

2015 年更新: Python 3.5 添加了 subprocess.run 比 subprocess.Popen 更容易使用。

>>> subprocess.run(["ls", "-l"])  # doesn't capture output
CompletedProcess(args=['ls', '-l'], returncode=0)

>>> subprocess.run("exit 1", shell=True, check=True)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  ...
subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command 'exit 1' returned non-zero exit status 1

>>> subprocess.run(["ls", "-l", "/dev/null"], capture_output=True)
CompletedProcess(args=['ls', '-l', '/dev/null'], returncode=0,
stdout=b'crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 Jan 23 16:23 /dev/null\n', stderr=b'')

还有铅

>>> from plumbum import local
>>> ls = local["ls"]
>>> ls
LocalCommand(<LocalPath /bin/ls>)
>>> ls()
u'build.py\ndist\ndocs\nLICENSE\nplumbum\nREADME.rst\nsetup.py\ntests\ntodo.txt\n'
>>> notepad = local["c:\\windows\\notepad.exe"]
>>> notepad()                                   # Notepad window pops up
u''                                             # Notepad window is closed by user, command returns

如果您需要从 Python 笔记本电脑(如 Jupyter、Zeppelin、Databricks 或 Google Cloud Datalab)中拨打一个支票命令,您只能使用! 预定。

例如,

!ls -ilF

最多案例:

在大多数情况下,一个短片的代码,如此,是你将需要的一切:

import subprocess
import shlex

source = "test.txt"
destination = "test_copy.txt"

base = "cp {source} {destination}'"
cmd = base.format(source=source, destination=destination)
subprocess.check_call(shlex.split(cmd))

它是干净和简单的。

subprocess.check_call 以论点运行命令,等待命令完成。 shlex.split 使用 shell-like syntax 分割行 cmd

其他案例:

如果这不适用于某些特定的命令,最有可能你有一个问题与命令线的解释器. 操作系统选择了默认一个不适合你的程序类型或可能没有找到适当的一个在系统可执行的路径。

例子:

使用Unix系统上的转向操作器

input_1 = "input_1.txt"
input_2 = "input_2.txt"
output = "merged.txt"
base_command = "/bin/bash -c 'cat {input} >> {output}'"

base_command.format(input_1, output=output)
subprocess.check_call(shlex.split(base_command))

base_command.format(input_2, output=output)
subprocess.check_call(shlex.split(base_command))

正如《Python Zen: Explicit is better than implicit》中所说的那样。

因此,如果使用 Python >=3.6 函数,它会看起来像这样:

import subprocess
import shlex

def run_command(cmd_interpreter: str, command: str) -> None:
    base_command = f"{cmd_interpreter} -c '{command}'"
    subprocess.check_call(shlex.split(base_command)
