下面是一些使用ctypes的代码(仅在Linux上测试):

from ctypes import *
libc = CDLL("libc.so.6")

#  struct timespec {
#             time_t tv_sec;        /* seconds */
#             long   tv_nsec;       /* nanoseconds */
#         };
# int futimens(int fd, const struct timespec times[2]);

class c_timespec(Structure):
    _fields_ = [('tv_sec', c_long), ('tv_nsec', c_long)]

class c_utimbuf(Structure):
    _fields_ = [('atime', c_timespec), ('mtime', c_timespec)]

utimens = CFUNCTYPE(c_int, c_char_p, POINTER(c_utimbuf))
futimens = CFUNCTYPE(c_int, c_char_p, POINTER(c_utimbuf)) 

# from /usr/include/i386-linux-gnu/bits/stat.h
UTIME_NOW  = ((1l << 30) - 1l)
UTIME_OMIT = ((1l << 30) - 2l)
now  = c_timespec(0,UTIME_NOW)
omit = c_timespec(0,UTIME_OMIT)

# wrappers
def update_atime(fileno):
        assert(isinstance(fileno, int))
        libc.futimens(fileno, byref(c_utimbuf(now, omit)))
def update_mtime(fileno):
        assert(isinstance(fileno, int))
        libc.futimens(fileno, byref(c_utimbuf(omit, now)))

# usage example:
#
# f = open("/tmp/test")
# update_mtime(f.fileno())

def touch(fname):
    if os.path.exists(fname):
        os.utime(fname, None)
    else:
        open(fname, 'a').close()

简单的:

def touch(fname):
    open(fname, 'a').close()
    os.utime(fname, None)

打开确保那里有一个文件 utime确保时间戳被更新

从理论上讲，可能有人会在打开文件后删除该文件，导致utime引发异常。但可以说这没什么，因为坏事确实发生了。

看起来这是Python 3.4的新功能- pathlib。

from pathlib import Path

Path('path/to/file.txt').touch()

这将在该路径下创建一个file.txt文件。

--

路径。触摸(模式= 0 o777 exist_ok = True) 在这个给定的路径上创建一个文件。如果给出了mode，它将与进程的umask值相结合，以确定文件模式和访问标志。如果文件已经存在，则如果exist_ok为true(并且其修改时间更新为当前时间)，则函数成功，否则将引发FileExistsError。

当关键字with已经发布时，此答案与Python-2.5以来的所有版本兼容。

1. 如果不存在则创建文件+设置当前时间 (与命令触摸完全相同)

import os

fname = 'directory/filename.txt'
with open(fname, 'a'):     # Create file if does not exist
    os.utime(fname, None)  # Set access/modified times to now
                           # May raise OSError if file does not exist

一个更健壮的版本:

import os

with open(fname, 'a'):
  try:                     # Whatever if file was already existing
    os.utime(fname, None)  # => Set current time anyway
  except OSError:
    pass  # File deleted between open() and os.utime() calls

2. 如果文件不存在，则创建该文件 (不更新时间)

with open(fname, 'a'):  # Create file if does not exist
    pass

3.只需更新文件访问/修改次数 (如果不存在，则不创建文件)

import os

try:
    os.utime(fname, None)  # Set access/modified times to now
except OSError:
    pass  # File does not exist (or no permission)

使用os.path.exists()不会简化代码:

from __future__ import (absolute_import, division, print_function)
import os

if os.path.exists(fname):
  try:
    os.utime(fname, None)  # Set access/modified times to now
  except OSError:
    pass  # File deleted between exists() and utime() calls
          # (or no permission)

奖励:更新目录中所有文件的时间

from __future__ import (absolute_import, division, print_function)
import os

number_of_files = 0

#   Current directory which is "walked through"
#   |     Directories in root
#   |     |  Files in root       Working directory
#   |     |  |                     |
for root, _, filenames in os.walk('.'):
  for fname in filenames:
    pathname = os.path.join(root, fname)
    try:
      os.utime(pathname, None)  # Set access/modified times to now
      number_of_files += 1
    except OSError as why:
      print('Cannot change time of %r because %r', pathname, why)

print('Changed time of %i files', number_of_files)
