python 执行shell 环境变量_在python中设置调用bash脚本的环境变量

I have a bash script that looks like this:

python myPythonScript.py

python myOtherScript.py $VarFromFirstScript

and myPythonScript.py looks like this:

print("Running some code...")

VarFromFirstScript = someFunc()

print("Now I do other stuff")

The question is, how do I get the variable VarFromFirstScript back to the bash script that called myPythonScript.py.

I tried os.environ['VarFromFirstScript'] = VarFromFirstScript but this doesn't work (I assume this means that the python environment is a different env from the calling bash script).

you cannot propagate an environment variable to the parent process. But you can print the variable, and assign it back to the variable name from your shell:

VarFromFirstScript=$(python myOtherScript.py $VarFromFirstScript)

you must not print anything else in your code, or using stderr

sys.stderr.write("Running some code...\n")

VarFromFirstScript = someFunc()

sys.stdout.write(VarFromFirstScript)

an alternative would be to create a file with the variables to set, and make it parse by your shell (you could create a shell that the parent shell would source)

import shlex

with open("shell_to_source.sh","w") as f:

f.write("VarFromFirstScript={}\n".format(shlex.quote(VarFromFirstScript))

(shlex.quote allows to avoid code injection from python, courtesy Charles Duffy)

then after calling python:

source ./shell_to_source.sh
