如何在Python中区分“Android”与其他“Linux”操作系统？

Question

I'm running a Python script on my phone through QPython. The title pretty much explains the question. I basically need to check if the script is running on an android device. I've tried os.name , sys.platform and platform.system() but those just return various kinds of "Linux" or "Posix", which is not specific enough (as far as I know - maybe I am missing some relevant information here).

I considered trying to import the android module, and then use the success or failure of this to determine if the OS is Android. I don't really need the android module though, so this seems a bit excessive.

Answer 1

You can check for 'ANDROID_STORAGE' in environ:

>>> from os import environ
>>> is_android = 'ANDROID_STORAGE' in environ
>>> is_android
True
