python怎么杀死进程,用python杀死进程

I need to make a script that gets from the user the following:

1) Process name (on linux).

2) The log file name that this process write to it.

It needs to kill the process and verify that the process is down.

Change the log file name to a new file name with the time and date.

And then run the process again, verify that it's up in order it will continue to write to the log file.

Thanks in advance for the help.

You can retrieve the process id (PID) given it name using pgrep command like this:

import subprocess

import signal

import os

from datetime import datetime as dt

process_name = sys.argv[1]

log_file_name = sys.argv[2]

proc = subprocess.Popen(["pgrep", process_name], stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

# Kill process.

for pid in proc.stdout:

os.kill(int(pid), signal.SIGTERM)

# Check if the process that we killed is alive.

try:

os.kill(int(pid), 0)

raise Exception("""wasn't able to kill the process

HINT:use signal.SIGKILL or signal.SIGABORT""")

except OSError as ex:

continue

# Save old logging file and create a new one.

os.system("cp {0} '{0}-dup-{1}'".format(log_file_name, dt.now()))

# Empty the logging file.

with open(log_file_name, "w") as f:

pass

# Run the process again.

os.sytsem("")

# you can use os.exec* if you want to replace this process with the new one which i think is much better in this case.

# the os.system() or os.exec* call will failed if something go wrong like this you can check if the process is runninh again.

Hope this can help
