On my local machine, I run a python script which contains this line
bashCommand = \"cwm --rdf test.rdf --ntriples > test.nt\"
os.system(bashCommand)
Also you can use 'os.popen'. Example:
import os
command = os.popen('ls -al')
print(command.read())
print(command.close())
Output:
total 16
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 ago 13 21:53 .
drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 ago 13 01:50 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1278 ago 13 21:12 bot.py
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 77 ago 13 21:53 test.py
None
To run the command without a shell, pass the command as a list and implement the redirection in Python using [subprocess]:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import subprocess
with open('test.nt', 'wb', 0) as file:
subprocess.check_call("cwm --rdf test.rdf --ntriples".split(),
stdout=file)
Note: no > test.nt
at the end. stdout=file
implements the redirection.
To run the command using the shell in Python, pass the command as a string and enable shell=True
:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import subprocess
subprocess.check_call("cwm --rdf test.rdf --ntriples > test.nt",
shell=True)
Here's the shell is responsible for the output redirection (> test.nt
is in the command).
To run a bash command that uses bashisms, specify the bash executable explicitly e.g., to emulate bash process substitution:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import subprocess
subprocess.check_call('program <(command) <(another-command)',
shell=True, executable='/bin/bash')
subprocess.Popen()
is prefered over os.system()
as it offers more control and visibility. However, If you find subprocess.Popen()
too verbose or complex, peasyshell
is a small wrapper I wrote above it, which makes it easy to interact with bash from Python.

Call it with subprocess
import subprocess
subprocess.Popen("cwm --rdf test.rdf --ntriples > test.nt")
The error you are getting seems to be because there is no swap module on the server, you should install swap on the server then run the script again
