Hi,
I m trying a read the output of a process which is running
continuously with subprocess.Popen. However the readline() method
hangs for the process to finish. Please let me know if the following
code can be made to work with subprocess.Popen with threads or queues.
I tried a lot of methods but to no avail. It would be great if someone
can make it work.
import subprocess
p1 = subprocess.Popen('tail -f /var/log/
messages',stdout=subprocess.PIPE,shell=True)
p2 = subprocess.Popen('grep
something',stdin=p1.stdout,stdout=subprocess.PIPE,shell=True)
while 1:
line = p2.stdout.readline()
print line
Thanks,
~Ashok.
