Method Details [hide private]

__init__(self, cmd, bufsize=-1)
(Constructor)

 

The parameter 'cmd' is the shell command to execute in a sub-process. On UNIX, 'cmd' may be a sequence, in which case arguments will be passed directly to the program without shell intervention (as with os.spawnv()). If 'cmd' is a string it will be passed to the shell (as with os.system()). The 'capturestderr' flag, if true, specifies that the object should capture standard error output of the child process. The default is false. If the 'bufsize' parameter is specified, it specifies the size of the I/O buffers to/from the child process.
