Hi everybody.
I need to invoke an external process in one of my app engine pages
like so:
import subprocess
p = subprocess.Popen("ls -la", shell=True, stdout=subprocess.PIPE,
stderr=subprocess.STDOUT)
for line in p.stdout.readlines():
self.response.out.write(line)
retval = p.wait()
This code works fine in regular python but app engine says
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'Popen'
wondering if calling an external application or forking a process is
possible. I'm doubtful because of the security implications, but im
also a newbie at python.
Thanks Y'all
