我修改了fmark的答案，用python 2/3兼容更pythonic。

    yes_list = ["yes", "y"]

    default_dict = {  # default => prompt default string
        None: "[y/n]",
        True: "[Y/n]",

    default_str = default_dict[default]
    prompt_str = "%s %s " % (question, default_str)

    while True:

        if not choice and default is not None:

        notification_str = "Please respond with 'y' or 'n'"
        print(notification_str)

这是我所使用的:

import sys

# cs = case sensitive
# ys = whatever you want to be "yes" - string or tuple of strings

#  prompt('promptString') == 1:               # only y
#  prompt('promptString',cs = 0) == 1:        # y or Y
#  prompt('promptString','Yes') == 1:         # only Yes
#  prompt('promptString',('y','yes')) == 1:   # only y or yes
#  prompt('promptString',('Y','Yes')) == 1:   # only Y or Yes
#  prompt('promptString',('y','yes'),0) == 1: # Yes, YES, yes, y, Y etc.

def prompt(ps,ys='y',cs=1):
    sys.stdout.write(ps)
    ii = raw_input()
    if cs == 0:
        ii = ii.lower()
    if type(ys) == tuple:
        for accept in ys:
            if cs == 0:
                accept = accept.lower()
            if ii == accept:
                return True
    else:
        if ii == ys:
            return True
    return False

您可以使用单击的确认方法。

import click

if click.confirm('Do you want to continue?', default=True):
    print('Do something')

这将打印:

$ Do you want to continue? [Y/n]:

应该适用于Linux, Mac或Windows上的Python 2/3。

文档:http://click.pocoo.org/5/prompts/ # confirmation-prompts

对于Python 3，我使用这个函数:

def user_prompt(question: str) -> bool:
    """ Prompt the yes/no-*question* to the user. """
    from distutils.util import strtobool

    while True:
        user_input = input(question + " [y/n]: ")
        try:
            return bool(strtobool(user_input))
        except ValueError:
            print("Please use y/n or yes/no.\n")

函数的作用是:将字符串转换为bool类型。如果字符串不能被解析，它将引发ValueError。

在Python 3中，raw_input()已重命名为input()。

正如Geoff所说，strtoool实际上返回0或1，因此结果必须转换为bool类型。

这是strtobool的实现，如果你想让特殊的单词被识别为true，你可以复制代码并添加自己的case。

def strtobool (val):
    """Convert a string representation of truth to true (1) or false (0).
    True values are 'y', 'yes', 't', 'true', 'on', and '1'; false values
    are 'n', 'no', 'f', 'false', 'off', and '0'.  Raises ValueError if
    'val' is anything else.
    """
    val = val.lower()
    if val in ('y', 'yes', 't', 'true', 'on', '1'):
        return 1
    elif val in ('n', 'no', 'f', 'false', 'off', '0'):
        return 0
    else:
        raise ValueError("invalid truth value %r" % (val,))

Python x.x

res = True
while res:
    res = input("Please confirm with y/yes...").lower(); res = res not in {'y','yes','Y','YES',''}

对python 3执行同样的操作。X, raw_input()不存在:

def ask(question, default = None):
    hasDefault = default is not None
    prompt = (question 
               + " [" + ["y", "Y"][hasDefault and default] + "/" 
               + ["n", "N"][hasDefault and not default] + "] ")

    while True:
        sys.stdout.write(prompt)
        choice = input().strip().lower()
        if choice == '':
            if default is not None:
                return default
        else:
            if "yes".startswith(choice):
                return True
            if "no".startswith(choice):
                return False

        sys.stdout.write("Please respond with 'yes' or 'no' "
                             "(or 'y' or 'n').\n")
