通过os.system和subprocess.call()函数调用其他程序

预备知识：cmd中打开和关闭程序

cmd中打开程序

a.打开系统自带程序

系统自带的程序的路径一般都已加入环境变量之中，只需在cmd窗口中直接输入程序名称即可。

以notepad为例，直接在cmd窗口中输入notepad后回车即可打开。

b.打开自己安装且没有加入环境变量的程序

以网易云音乐为例，在cmd窗口中需要输入完整的程序路径  "D:\Program Files (x86)\Netease\CloudMusic\cloudmusic.exe"。

注意，双引号是必须的。

若将网易云音乐的路径加入环境变量之中，则在cmd窗口中输入cloudmusic后回车即可运行。

在cmd中关闭程序

在cmd中关闭程序可以使用taskkill命令，语法如下：

taskkill /f /t /im 进程名

注意，这里只需要程序的进程名即可，而非完整路径名。

仍以网易云音乐为例，在cmd窗口中输入 taskkill /f /t /im cloudmusic.exe 后回车即可关闭网易云音乐。

如下图所示：

a.os.system方法

os.system(command)  链接 https://docs.python.org/2/library/os.html#os.system

Execute the command (a string) in a subshell. This is implemented by calling the Standard C function system(), and has the same limitations. Changes to sys.stdin, etc. are not reflected in the environment of the executed command.

On Unix, the return value is the exit status of the process encoded in the format specified for wait(). Note that POSIX does not specify the meaning of the return value of the C system() function, so the return value of the Python function is system-dependent.

On Windows, the return value is that returned by the system shell after running command, given by the Windows environment variableCOMSPEC: on command.com systems (Windows 95, 98 and ME) this is always 0; on cmd.exe systems (Windows NT, 2000 and XP) this is the exit status of the command run; on systems using a non-native shell, consult your shell documentation.

The subprocess module provides more powerful facilities for spawning new processes and retrieving their results; using that module is preferable to using this function. See the Replacing Older Functions with the subprocess Module section in the subprocessdocumentation for some helpful recipes.

Availability: Unix, Windows.

os模块中的system()函数可以方便地运行其他程序或者脚本。其函数原型为：
os.system(command)
command 为要执行的命令，近似于Windows下cmd窗口中输入的命令。

如果要向程序或者脚本传递参数，可以使用空格分隔程序及多个参数。

b.用subprocess.call()代替os.system()

17.1.4.3. Replacing os.system()    

链接 https://docs.python.org/2/library/subprocess.html#replacing-os-system

1 status = os.system("mycmd" + " myarg")
2 # becomes
3 status = subprocess.call("mycmd" + " myarg", shell=True)

Notes:

• Calling the program through the shell is usually not required.

A more realistic example would look like this:

1 try:
2     retcode = call("mycmd" + " myarg", shell=True)
3     if retcode < 0:
4         print >>sys.stderr, "Child was terminated by signal", -retcode
5     else:
6         print >>sys.stderr, "Child returned", retcode
7 except OSError as e:
8     print >>sys.stderr, "Execution failed:", e

1 import os
2 os.system('notepad')

1 import subprocess
2 subprocess.call('notepad')

1 import os
2 os.system(r'"D:\Program Files (x86)\Netease\CloudMusic\cloudmusic.exe"')

1 import subprocess
2 subprocess.call("D:\Program Files (x86)\Netease\CloudMusic\cloudmusic.exe")

1 import os
2 os.system(r'"D:\Program Files (x86)\Netease\CloudMusic\cloudmusic.exe""notepad"')
3 或
4 os.system("D:\Program Files (x86)\Netease\CloudMusic\cloudmusic.exe""notepad")
5 或
6 os.system(""D:\Program Files (x86)\Netease\CloudMusic\cloudmusic.exe""notepad"")
