本文探讨如何在Python中调用shell脚本并将stdout和stderr通过logging写入文件，而不必创建临时文件存储进程输出。重点介绍了subprocess模块的Popen参数，如stdout、stderr，以及如何利用 PIPE 实现输出捕获。

I am looking for the way to call shell scripts from python and write their stdout and stderr to file using logging. Here is my code:

import logging
import tempfile
import shlex
import os

def run_shell_command(command_line):
    command_line_args = shlex.split(command_line)

    logging.info('Subprocess: \"' + command_line + '\"')

    process_succeeded = True
    try:
        process_output_filename = tempfile.mktemp(suffix = 'subprocess_tmp_file_')
        process_output = open(process_output_filename, 'w')

        command_line_process = subprocess.Popen(command_line_args,\
                                                stdout = process_output,\
                                                stderr = process_output)
        command_line_process.wait()
        process_output.close()

        process_output = open(process_output_filename, 'r')
        log_subprocess_output(process_output)
        process_output.close()

        os.remove(process_output_filename)
    except:
        exception = sys.exc_info()[1]
        logging.info('Exception occured: ' + str(exception))
        process_succeeded = False

    if process_succeeded:
        logging.info('Subprocess finished')
    else:
        logging.info('Subprocess failed')

    return process_succeeded

And I am sure that there is the way to do it without creating temporary file to store process output. Any ideas?

You simply have to check for the documentation of Popen, in particular about stdout and stderr:

stdin, stdout and stderr specify the executed program’s standard input, standard output and standard error file handles, respectively. Valid values are PIPE, an existing file descriptor (a positive integer), an existing file object, and None. PIPE indicates that a new pipe to the child should be created. With the default settings of None, no redirection will occur; the child’s file handles will be inherited from the parent. Additionally, stderr can be STDOUT, which indicates that the stderr data from the child process should be captured into the same file handle as for stdout.

So you can see that you can either use a file object, or the PIPE value. This allows you to use the communicate() method to retrieve the output:

from StringIO import StringIO
process = subprocess.Popen(arguments, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)
output, error = process.communicate()
log_subprocess_output(StringIO(output))

I have rewrite your codes as :

import shlex
import logging
import subprocess
from StringIO import StringIO

def run_shell_command(command_line):
    command_line_args = shlex.split(command_line)

    logging.info('Subprocess: "' + command_line + '"')

    try:
        command_line_process = subprocess.Popen(
            command_line_args,
            stdout=subprocess.PIPE,
            stderr=subprocess.STDOUT,
        )

        process_output, _ =  command_line_process.communicate()

        # process_output is now a string, not a file,
        # you may want to do:
        # process_output = StringIO(process_output)
        log_subprocess_output(process_output)
    except (OSError, CalledProcessError) as exception:
        logging.info('Exception occured: ' + str(exception))
        logging.info('Subprocess failed')
        return False
    else:
        # no exception was raised
        logging.info('Subprocess finished')

    return True
