Introduction and use of subprocess module

subprocess module

1. Subprocess and commonly used encapsulation functions
When running python, we are creating and running a process. Like a Linux process, a process can fork a child process and let the child process exec another program. In Python, we use the subprocess package in the standard library to fork a subprocess and run an external program.
The subprocess package defines several functions for creating subprocesses. These functions create subprocesses in different ways, so we can choose one of them to use according to our needs. In addition, subprocess also provides some tools for managing standard streams and pipes to use text communication between processes.

subprocess.call()
The parent process waits for the child process to complete
Return exit information (returncode, equivalent to Linux exit code)

subprocess.check_call()
Parent The process waits for the subprocess to complete
Return 0
Check the exit information. If the returncode is not 0, raise the error subprocess.CalledProcessError. This object contains the returncode attribute, which can be checked with try...except...

subprocess.check_output()
The parent process waits for the child process to complete
Return the output result of the subprocess to the standard output
Check the exit information, if the returncode is not 0, raise the error subprocess.CalledProcessError, this object Contains the returncode attribute and the output attribute. The output attribute is the output result of the standard output and can be checked with try...except....

1. Introduction

Subprocess was first introduced in version 2.4. Used to spawn child processes, connect their input/output/errors through pipes, and obtain their return values.

Subprocess is used to replace multiple old modules and functions:

os.system
os.spawn*
os.popen*
popen2.*
commands.*

## When running python, we They are all creating and running a process. In Linux, a process can fork a child process and let the child process exec another program. In python, we use the subprocess package in the standard library to fork a subprocess and run an external program. The subprocess package defines several functions for creating subprocesses. These functions create subprocesses in different ways, so we can choose one of them to use according to our needs. In addition, subprocess also provides some tools for managing standard streams and pipes to use text communication between processes.

2. Use of old modules

1.os.system()

Execute operating system commands, Output the results to the screen and only return the command execution status (0: success, non-0: failure)

import os

&gt;&gt;&gt; a = os.system(&quot;df -Th&quot;)
Filesystem     Type   Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3      ext4   1.8T  436G  1.3T  26% /
tmpfs          tmpfs   16G     0   16G   0% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1      ext4   190M  118M   63M  66% /boot

&gt;&gt;&gt; a
0         # 0 表示执行成功


# 执行错误的命令
&gt;&gt;&gt; res = os.system(&quot;list&quot;)
sh: list: command not found
&gt;&gt;&gt; res
32512       # 返回非 0 表示执行错误

2. os.popen()

Execute the command of the operating system and the result will be saved in the memory, which can be read out using the read() method

import os

&gt;&gt;&gt; res = os.popen(&quot;ls -l&quot;)

# 将结果保存到内存中
&gt;&gt;&gt; print res
&lt;open file &#39;ls -l&#39;, mode &#39;r&#39; at 0x7f02d249c390&gt;

# 用read()读取内容
&gt;&gt;&gt; print res.read()

3. subprocess module

1. subprocess.run()

&gt;&gt;&gt; import subprocess
# python 解析则传入命令的每个参数的列表
&gt;&gt;&gt; subprocess.run([&quot;df&quot;,&quot;-h&quot;])
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on

CompletedProcess(args=[&#39;df&#39;, &#39;-h&#39;], returncode=0)

# 需要交给Linux shell自己解析，则:传入命令字符串，shell=True
&gt;&gt;&gt; subprocess.run(&quot;df -h|grep /dev/sda1&quot;,shell=True)
/dev/sda1             283M   27M  241M  11% /boot
CompletedProcess(args=&#39;df -h|grep /dev/sda1&#39;, returncode=0)

2 , subprocess.call()

Execute the command and return the result and execution status of the command, 0 or non-0

&gt;&gt;&gt; res = subprocess.call([&quot;ls&quot;,&quot;-l&quot;])

3. subprocess. check_call()

Execute the command and return the result and status. Normally it is 0. If there is an execution error, an exception will be thrown.

&gt;&gt;&gt; subprocess.check_call([&quot;ls&quot;,&quot;-l&quot;])
总用量 28
-rw-r--r--  1 root root     0 6月  16 10:28 1

&gt;&gt;&gt; subprocess.check_call([&quot;lm&quot;,&quot;-l&quot;])

    raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

4. subprocess. getstatusoutput()

Accepts a command in the form of a string and returns a result in the form of a tuple. The first element is the command execution status, and the second element is the execution result

#执行正确
&gt;&gt;&gt; subprocess.getstatusoutput(&#39;pwd&#39;)
(0, &#39;/root&#39;)

#执行错误
&gt;&gt;&gt; subprocess.getstatusoutput(&#39;pd&#39;)
(127, &#39;/bin/sh: pd: command not found&#39;)

Copy after login

5. subprocess.getoutput()

Accept commands in the form of strings and put back the execution results

&gt;&gt;&gt; subprocess.getoutput(&#39;pwd&#39;)
&#39;/root&#39;

Copy after login

6. subprocess.check_output()

Execute the command and return the execution result instead of printing

&gt;&gt;&gt; res = subprocess.check_output(&quot;pwd&quot;)
&gt;&gt;&gt; res
b&#39;/root\n&#39; # 结果以字节形式返回

Copy after login

4. subprocess.Popen()

In fact, the above methods used by subprocess are all encapsulation of subprocess.Popen. Let’s take a look. This Popen method.

1, stdout

Standard output

&gt;&gt;&gt; res = subprocess.Popen(&quot;ls /tmp/yum.log&quot;, shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)  # 使用管道
&gt;&gt;&gt; res.stdout.read()    # 标准输出
b&#39;/tmp/yum.log\n&#39;

res.stdout.close()   # 关闭

Copy after login

2、stderr

Standard error

&gt;&gt;&gt; import subprocess
&gt;&gt;&gt; res = subprocess.Popen(&quot;lm -l&quot;,shell=True,stdout=subprocess.PIPE,stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
# 标准输出为空
&gt;&gt;&gt; res.stdout.read()
b&#39;&#39;

#标准错误中有错误信息
&gt;&gt;&gt; res.stderr.read()
b&#39;/bin/sh: lm: command not found\n&#39;

Copy after login

注意：上面的提到的标准输出都为啥都需要等于subprocess.PIPE,这个又是啥呢？原来这个是一个管道，这个需要画一个图来解释一下：

4、poll()

定时检查命令有没有执行完毕，执行完毕后返回执行结果的状态，没有执行完毕返回None

&gt;&gt;&gt; res = subprocess.Popen(&quot;sleep 10;echo &#39;hello&#39;&quot;,shell=True,stdout=subprocess.PIPE,stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
&gt;&gt;&gt; print(res.poll())
None
&gt;&gt;&gt; print(res.poll())
None
&gt;&gt;&gt; print(res.poll())
0

Copy after login

5、wait()

等待命令执行完成，并且返回结果状态

&gt;&gt;&gt; obj = subprocess.Popen(&quot;sleep 10;echo &#39;hello&#39;&quot;,shell=True,stdout=subprocess.PIPE,stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
&gt;&gt;&gt; obj.wait()


# 中间会一直等待


0

6、terminate()

结束进程

import subprocess

&gt;&gt;&gt; res = subprocess.Popen(&quot;sleep 20;echo &#39;hello&#39;&quot;,shell=True,stdout=subprocess.PIPE,stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
&gt;&gt;&gt; res.terminate()  # 结束进程
&gt;&gt;&gt; res.stdout.read() 
b&#39;&#39;

Copy after login

7、pid

获取当前执行子shell的程序的进程号

import subprocess

&gt;&gt;&gt; res = subprocess.Popen(&quot;sleep 5;echo &#39;hello&#39;&quot;,shell=True,stdout=subprocess.PIPE,stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
&gt;&gt;&gt; res.pid  # 获取这个linux shell 的 进程号
