python调用ping命令并输出ttl_ping无限的时间并在Python中获取其输出

The task is: Try to send ping in python using the most basic form like "ping 8.8.8.8". After some time terminate the ping command (In a terminal, one will do Ctrl+C) and get its output. The last several lines of output which shows the ping statistics are of particular interest.

Two methods tried, did not work. My OS version is Mac OS X 10.10.1.

First method uses module pexpect, and ping will stop after about 17 seconds though I did not ask it to stop:

import pexpect

import time

child = pexpect.spawn('ping 8.8.8.8')

(x, y) = child.getwinsize()

print x

print y

time.sleep(21)

child.terminate()

x = child.read()

print x

Second Method uses module subprocess, and the last several lines of ping output are lost:

import time

from subprocess import PIPE, Popen

child = Popen(['ping', '8.8.8.8'], stdin = PIPE, stdout = PIPE, stderr = PIPE)

time.sleep(5)

child.terminate()

x = child.stdout.read()

print x

x = child.stderr.read()

print x

I'd appreciate any help! "ping -c XXX" is not accepted.

The second solution you have is great. There's just one issue with obtaining your desired behavior (getting the ping's "conclusion"): You're sending the wrong signal to the process.

When you terminate the process from a shell, you traditionally send a SIGINT signal. See "bash - How does Ctrl-C terminate a child process?". This allows the process to "wrap up" (e.g., cleaning up temprorary files, providing debug information).

import signal

# Open process

child.send_signal(signal.SIGINT)

# Provide some time for the process to complete

time.sleep(1)

# Echo output

Popen.terminate, which you're using now, sends a SIGTERM instead of a SIGINT.
