Is there a way to print stdout as it is outputted?

Question

If if I ran

from plumbum import local
local['ping']['google.com']()

It would just hang indefinitely because ping executes forever.

Is there a way to print the output of ping as it executes, perhaps in a generator or something, like

for a in local['ping']['google.com']():
    print a

Answer 1

According to the documentation , this should work:

from plumbum import local, FG

local["ping"]["google.com"] & FG
