在特定的 python 文件上自动创建 tmux 会话。 （重击？）

Question

I am new to all this server side stuff, and I have a server on which I need to start up multiple tmux sessions with the same python script multiple times.

How can I automate this process,( usign bash etc) This is what I do currently:

tmux / cd python /pyhon3 xshares.py / ctrl-b / d / tmux ...

Repeatedly, which takes a lot of time, thanks for your help.

Answer 1

I'm creator of 2 open source, python-based tmux(1) tools: libtmux and tmuxp .

tmux session managers

If I had to guess, by "automate" you are looking for a "tmux session manager". Some of those include (non-exhaustively):

• teamocil
• tmuxinator
• tmuxp (the one I wrote)

The gist of these tools is there's a declarative YAML configuration encapsulating a tmux session, and its windows and panes.

To get a better idea what this looks like, assume mysession.yaml :

session_name: my session
windows:
  - window_name: another window
    panes:
    - shell_command:
      - python3 ./myscript.py
    - shell_command: python3 ./myscript2.py
  - window_name: another window
    panes:
    - shell_command:
      - pane
    - pane

You could then launch it via command (assuming you have tmuxp installed via pip install --user tmuxp ):

tmuxp load ./mysession.yaml

This will create and automatically launch you into the tmux session declared in the YAML file. Here are some examples for inspiration.

Scripting tmux

On the outside chance I misunderstood - eg you want to pilot tmux programmatically, you could do this through shell commands to tmux itself or libtmux. It could be better to ask a question pivoted toward manual , scripted control of tmux. I can help with that, too. :)
