18.5.6. Subprocessos¶
Source code: Lib/asyncio/subprocess.py
18.5.6.1. Windows event loop¶
On Windows, the default event loop is SelectorEventLoop
which does not
support subprocesses. ProactorEventLoop
should be used instead.
Example to use it on Windows:
import asyncio, sys
if sys.platform == 'win32':
loop = asyncio.ProactorEventLoop()
asyncio.set_event_loop(loop)

18.5.6.2. Create a subprocess: high-level API using Process¶
-
coroutine
asyncio.
create_subprocess_exec
(*args, stdin=None, stdout=None, stderr=None, loop=None, limit=None, **kwds)¶ Cria um subprocesso.
The limit parameter sets the buffer limit passed to the
StreamReader
. SeeAbstractEventLoop.subprocess_exec()
for other parameters.Retorna uma instância de
Process
.This function is a coroutine.
-
coroutine
asyncio.
create_subprocess_shell
(cmd, stdin=None, stdout=None, stderr=None, loop=None, limit=None, **kwds)¶ Run the shell command cmd.
The limit parameter sets the buffer limit passed to the
StreamReader
. SeeAbstractEventLoop.subprocess_shell()
for other parameters.Retorna uma instância de
Process
.It is the application’s responsibility to ensure that all whitespace and metacharacters are quoted appropriately to avoid shell injection vulnerabilities. The
shlex.quote()
function can be used to properly escape whitespace and shell metacharacters in strings that are going to be used to construct shell commands.This function is a coroutine.
Use the AbstractEventLoop.connect_read_pipe()
and
AbstractEventLoop.connect_write_pipe()
methods to connect pipes.
18.5.6.3. Create a subprocess: low-level API using subprocess.Popen¶
Run subprocesses asynchronously using the subprocess
module.
-
coroutine
AbstractEventLoop.
subprocess_exec
(protocol_factory, *args, stdin=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, **kwargs)¶ Create a subprocess from one or more string arguments (character strings or bytes strings encoded to the filesystem encoding), where the first string specifies the program to execute, and the remaining strings specify the program’s arguments. (Thus, together the string arguments form the
sys.argv
value of the program, assuming it is a Python script.) This is similar to the standard librarysubprocess.Popen
class called with shell=False and the list of strings passed as the first argument; however, wherePopen
takes a single argument which is list of strings,subprocess_exec()
takes multiple string arguments.The protocol_factory must instantiate a subclass of the
asyncio.SubprocessProtocol
class.Outros parâmetros:
stdin: Either a file-like object representing the pipe to be connected to the subprocess’s standard input stream using
connect_write_pipe()
, or the constantsubprocess.PIPE
(the default). By default a new pipe will be created and connected.stdout: Either a file-like object representing the pipe to be connected to the subprocess’s standard output stream using
connect_read_pipe()
, or the constantsubprocess.PIPE
(the default). By default a new pipe will be created and connected.stderr: Either a file-like object representing the pipe to be connected to the subprocess’s standard error stream using
connect_read_pipe()
, or one of the constantssubprocess.PIPE
(the default) orsubprocess.STDOUT
. By default a new pipe will be created and connected. Whensubprocess.STDOUT
is specified, the subprocess’s standard error stream will be connected to the same pipe as the standard output stream.All other keyword arguments are passed to
subprocess.Popen
without interpretation, except for bufsize, universal_newlines and shell, which should not be specified at all.
Returns a pair of
(transport, protocol)
, where transport is an instance ofBaseSubprocessTransport
.This method is a coroutine.
See the constructor of the
subprocess.Popen
class for parameters.
-
coroutine
AbstractEventLoop.
subprocess_shell
(protocol_factory, cmd, *, stdin=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, **kwargs)¶ Create a subprocess from cmd, which is a character string or a bytes string encoded to the filesystem encoding, using the platform’s “shell” syntax. This is similar to the standard library
subprocess.Popen
class called withshell=True
.The protocol_factory must instantiate a subclass of the
asyncio.SubprocessProtocol
class.See
subprocess_exec()
for more details about the remaining arguments.Returns a pair of
(transport, protocol)
, where transport is an instance ofBaseSubprocessTransport
.It is the application’s responsibility to ensure that all whitespace and metacharacters are quoted appropriately to avoid shell injection vulnerabilities. The
shlex.quote()
function can be used to properly escape whitespace and shell metacharacters in strings that are going to be used to construct shell commands.This method is a coroutine.

18.5.6.4. Constantes¶
-
asyncio.subprocess.
PIPE
¶ Special value that can be used as the stdin, stdout or stderr argument to
create_subprocess_shell()
andcreate_subprocess_exec()
and indicates that a pipe to the standard stream should be opened.
-
asyncio.subprocess.
STDOUT
¶ Special value that can be used as the stderr argument to
create_subprocess_shell()
andcreate_subprocess_exec()
and indicates that standard error should go into the same handle as standard output.
-
asyncio.subprocess.
DEVNULL
¶ Special value that can be used as the stdin, stdout or stderr argument to
create_subprocess_shell()
andcreate_subprocess_exec()
and indicates that the special fileos.devnull
will be used.
18.5.6.5. Process¶
-
class
asyncio.subprocess.
Process
¶ A subprocess created by the
create_subprocess_exec()
or thecreate_subprocess_shell()
function.The API of the
Process
class was designed to be close to the API of thesubprocess.Popen
class, but there are some differences:There is no explicit
poll()
methodThe
communicate()
andwait()
methods don’t take a timeout parameter: use thewait_for()
functionThe universal_newlines parameter is not supported (only bytes strings are supported)
The
wait()
method of theProcess
class is asynchronous whereas thewait()
method of thePopen
class is implemented as a busy loop.
This class is not thread safe. See also the Subprocess and threads section.
-
coroutine
wait
()¶ Wait for child process to terminate. Set and return
returncode
attribute.This method is a coroutine.
Nota
This will deadlock when using
stdout=PIPE
orstderr=PIPE
and the child process generates enough output to a pipe such that it blocks waiting for the OS pipe buffer to accept more data. Use thecommunicate()
method when using pipes to avoid that.
-
coroutine
communicate
(input=None)¶ Interact with process: Send data to stdin. Read data from stdout and stderr, until end-of-file is reached. Wait for process to terminate. The optional input argument should be data to be sent to the child process, or
None
, if no data should be sent to the child. The type of input must be bytes.communicate()
returns a tuple(stdout_data, stderr_data)
.If a
BrokenPipeError
orConnectionResetError
exception is raised when writing input into stdin, the exception is ignored. It occurs when the process exits before all data are written into stdin.Note that if you want to send data to the process’s stdin, you need to create the Process object with
stdin=PIPE
. Similarly, to get anything other thanNone
in the result tuple, you need to givestdout=PIPE
and/orstderr=PIPE
too.This method is a coroutine.
Nota
The data read is buffered in memory, so do not use this method if the data size is large or unlimited.
Alterado na versão 3.4.2: The method now ignores
BrokenPipeError
andConnectionResetError
.
-
send_signal
(signal)¶ Envia o sinal signal para o processo filho.
Nota
No Windows,
SIGTERM
é um apelido paraterminate()
.CTRL_C_EVENT
eCTRL_BREAK_EVENT
podem ser enviados para processos iniciados com um parâmetro creationflags, o qual incluiCREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP
.
-
terminate
()¶ Stop the child. On Posix OSs the method sends
signal.SIGTERM
to the child. On Windows the Win32 API functionTerminateProcess()
is called to stop the child.
-
kill
()¶ Kills the child. On Posix OSs the function sends
SIGKILL
to the child. On Windowskill()
is an alias forterminate()
.
-
stdin
¶ Standard input stream (
StreamWriter
),None
if the process was created withstdin=None
.
-
stdout
¶ Standard output stream (
StreamReader
),None
if the process was created withstdout=None
.
-
stderr
¶ Standard error stream (
StreamReader
),None
if the process was created withstderr=None
.
Aviso
Use the
communicate()
method rather than.stdin.write
,.stdout.read
or.stderr.read
to avoid deadlocks due to streams pausing reading or writing and blocking the child process.-
pid
¶ The identifier of the process.
Note that for processes created by the
create_subprocess_shell()
function, this attribute is the process identifier of the spawned shell.
-
returncode
¶ Return code of the process when it exited. A
None
value indicates that the process has not terminated yet.A negative value
-N
indicates that the child was terminated by signalN
(Unix only).
18.5.6.6. Subprocess and threads¶
asyncio supports running subprocesses from different threads, but there are limits:
An event loop must run in the main thread
The child watcher must be instantiated in the main thread, before executing subprocesses from other threads. Call the
get_child_watcher()
function in the main thread to instantiate the child watcher.
The asyncio.subprocess.Process
class is not thread safe.

18.5.6.7. Subprocess examples¶
18.5.6.7.1. Subprocess using transport and protocol¶
Example of a subprocess protocol using to get the output of a subprocess and to
wait for the subprocess exit. The subprocess is created by the
AbstractEventLoop.subprocess_exec()
method:
import asyncio
import sys
class DateProtocol(asyncio.SubprocessProtocol):
def __init__(self, exit_future):
self.exit_future = exit_future
self.output = bytearray()
def pipe_data_received(self, fd, data):
self.output.extend(data)
def process_exited(self):
self.exit_future.set_result(True)
@asyncio.coroutine
def get_date(loop):
code = 'import datetime; print(datetime.datetime.now())'
exit_future = asyncio.Future(loop=loop)
# Create the subprocess controlled by the protocol DateProtocol,
# redirect the standard output into a pipe
create = loop.subprocess_exec(lambda: DateProtocol(exit_future),
sys.executable, '-c', code,
stdin=None, stderr=None)
transport, protocol = yield from create
# Wait for the subprocess exit using the process_exited() method
# of the protocol
yield from exit_future
# Close the stdout pipe
transport.close()
# Read the output which was collected by the pipe_data_received()
# method of the protocol
data = bytes(protocol.output)
return data.decode('ascii').rstrip()
if sys.platform == "win32":
loop = asyncio.ProactorEventLoop()
asyncio.set_event_loop(loop)
else:
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
date = loop.run_until_complete(get_date(loop))
print("Current date: %s" % date)
loop.close()
18.5.6.7.2. Subprocess using streams¶
Example using the Process
class to control the
subprocess and the StreamReader
class to read from the standard
output. The subprocess is created by the create_subprocess_exec()
function:
import asyncio.subprocess
import sys
@asyncio.coroutine
def get_date():
code = 'import datetime; print(datetime.datetime.now())'
# Create the subprocess, redirect the standard output into a pipe
create = asyncio.create_subprocess_exec(sys.executable, '-c', code,
stdout=asyncio.subprocess.PIPE)
proc = yield from create
# Read one line of output
data = yield from proc.stdout.readline()
line = data.decode('ascii').rstrip()
# Wait for the subprocess exit
yield from proc.wait()
return line
if sys.platform == "win32":
loop = asyncio.ProactorEventLoop()
asyncio.set_event_loop(loop)
else:
loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
date = loop.run_until_complete(get_date())
print("Current date: %s" % date)
loop.close()
