仅适用于Linux，但如果有人想使用subprocess.getstatusoutput()，其中timeout参数不可用，您可以在命令的开头使用内置的Linux timeout，即:

import subprocess

timeout = 25 # seconds
cmd = f"timeout --preserve-status --foreground {timeout} ping duckgo.com"
exit_c, out = subprocess.getstatusoutput(cmd)

if (exit_c == 0):
    print("success")
else:
    print("Error: ", out)

超时参数:

——preserve-status:保留退出状态 ——前台:在前台运行 25:超时时间，单位为秒

有时需要处理(ffmpeg)而不使用communication()，在这种情况下需要异步超时，这是使用ttldict实现的一种实用方法

PIP安装ttldict

from ttldict import  TTLOrderedDict   
sp_timeout = TTLOrderedDict(default_ttl=10)

def kill_on_timeout(done, proc):
    while True:
        now = time.time()
        if sp_timeout.get('exp_time') == None:
                proc.kill()
                break
    
process = subprocess.Popen(cmd, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, text=True, stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)
            
sp_timeout['exp_time'] = time.time()
            
done = Event()
watcher = Thread(target=kill_on_timeout, args=(done, process))
watcher.daemon = True
watcher.start()
done.set()

for line in process.stdout:
.......

您可以使用select来完成此操作

import subprocess
from datetime import datetime
from select import select

def call_with_timeout(cmd, timeout):
    started = datetime.now()
    sp = subprocess.Popen(cmd, stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
    while True:
        p = select([sp.stdout], [], [], timeout)
        if p[0]:
            p[0][0].read()
        ret = sp.poll()
        if ret is not None:
            return ret
        if (datetime.now()-started).total_seconds() > timeout:
            sp.kill()
            return None

我对底层细节了解不多;但是，考虑到这一点 python 2.6的API提供了等待线程和的能力 终止进程，那么在一个单独的进程中运行该进程呢 的线程吗?

import subprocess, threading

class Command(object):
    def __init__(self, cmd):
        self.cmd = cmd
        self.process = None

    def run(self, timeout):
        def target():
            print 'Thread started'
            self.process = subprocess.Popen(self.cmd, shell=True)
            self.process.communicate()
            print 'Thread finished'

        thread = threading.Thread(target=target)
        thread.start()

        thread.join(timeout)
        if thread.is_alive():
            print 'Terminating process'
            self.process.terminate()
            thread.join()
        print self.process.returncode

command = Command("echo 'Process started'; sleep 2; echo 'Process finished'")
command.run(timeout=3)
command.run(timeout=1)

这段代码在我的机器中的输出是:

Thread started
Process started
Process finished
Thread finished
0
Thread started
Process started
Terminating process
Thread finished
-15

在哪里可以看到，在第一次执行的过程 正确完成(返回代码0)，而在第二个 进程被终止(返回代码-15)。

我没有在windows中测试;但是，除了更新示例之外 命令，我想它应该工作，因为我还没有找到 记录任何说明该线程的内容。Join或process.terminate 不支持。

这是我的解决方案，我使用线程和事件:

import subprocess
from threading import Thread, Event

def kill_on_timeout(done, timeout, proc):
    if not done.wait(timeout):
        proc.kill()

def exec_command(command, timeout):

    done = Event()
    proc = subprocess.Popen(command, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)

    watcher = Thread(target=kill_on_timeout, args=(done, timeout, proc))
    watcher.daemon = True
    watcher.start()

    data, stderr = proc.communicate()
    done.set()

    return data, stderr, proc.returncode

在行动:

In [2]: exec_command(['sleep', '10'], 5)
Out[2]: ('', '', -9)

In [3]: exec_command(['sleep', '10'], 11)
Out[3]: ('', '', 0)

对于python 2.6+，使用gevent

 from gevent.subprocess import Popen, PIPE, STDOUT

 def call_sys(cmd, timeout):
      p= Popen(cmd, shell=True, stdout=PIPE)
      output, _ = p.communicate(timeout=timeout)
      assert p.returncode == 0, p. returncode
      return output

 call_sys('./t.sh', 2)

 # t.sh example
 sleep 5
 echo done
 exit 1
