Constantly print Subprocess output while process is running

Question

To launch programs from my Python-scripts, I\'m using the following method:

def execute(command):
    process = subprocess.Popen(command, shell=True, stdout=s         


        

Answer 1

For anyone trying the answers to this question to get the stdout from a Python script note that Python buffers its stdout, and therefore it may take a while to see the stdout.

This can be rectified by adding the following after each stdout write in the target script:

sys.stdout.flush()
