I'm trying to write a program in Python and I'm told to run an .exe file. When this .exe file is run it spits out a lot of data and I need a certain line printed out to the screen. I'm pretty sure I need to use subprocess.popen
or something similar but I'm new to subprocess and have no clue. Anyone have an easy way for me to get this done?
@Paolo's solution is perfect if you are interested in printing output after the process has finished executing. In case you want to poll output while the process is running you have to do it this way:
process = subprocess.Popen(cmd, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
while True:
out = process.stdout.readline(1)
if out == '' and process.poll() != None:
break
if out.startswith('myline'):
sys.stdout.write(out)
sys.stdout.flush()
Something like this:
import subprocess
process = subprocess.Popen(["yourcommand"], stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
result = process.communicate()[0]
