python的tempfile模块用于创建系统临时文件,是一个很有用的模块。通过tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile,可以轻易的创建临时文件,并返回一个文件对象,文件名可以通过对象的name属性获取,且创建的临时文件会在关闭后自动删除。下面这段python代码创建一个临时文件,并再次打开该临时文件,写入数据,然后再次打开,读取文件,并按行打印文件内容。
#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import tempfile
# create tmp file and write it
tmp_file = tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile()
print 'tmp file is {self.name}'.format(self=tmp_file)
with open(tmp_file.name, 'w') as f:
f.write("line 1\nline 2\nline 3\n")
# user tmp file
with open(tmp_file.name) as f:
for line in f.readlines():
print line
在linux上运行上面的python代码,会创建一个临时文件,且程序退出后该临时文件会自动删除,输出如下:
root@master:demo$ python tmp_file.py
tmp file is /tmp/tmpb3EYGV
line 1
line 2
line 3
但是在windows上运行时,提示没有权限,不能打开创建的临时文件,是不是感觉很奇怪。
E:\share\git\python_practice\demo>tmp_file.py
tmp file is c:\users\leo\appdata\local\temp\tmphn2kqj
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "E:\share\git\python_practice\demo\tmp_file.py", line 11, in <module>
with open(tmp_file.name, 'w') as f:
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'c:\\users\\leo\\appdata\\local\\temp\\tm
phn2kqj'
查看官方文档,该API解释如下:
tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile([mode='w+b'[, bufsize=-1[, suffix=''[, prefix='tmp'[, dir=None[, delete=True]]]]]])
This function operates exactly as TemporaryFile() does, except that the file is guaranteed to have a visible name in the file system (on Unix, the directory entry is not unlinked). That name can be retrieved from the name attribute of the returned file-like object. Whether the name can be used to open the file a second time, while the named temporary file is still open, varies across platforms (it can be so used on Unix; it cannot on Windows NT or later). If delete is true (the default), the file is deleted as soon as it is closed.
The returned object is always a file-like object whose file attribute is the underlying true file object. This file-like object can be used in a with statement, just like a normal file.
New in version 2.3.
New in version 2.6: The delete parameter.
注意其中的一句话:
Whether the name can be used to open the file a second time, while the named temporary file is still open, varies across platforms (it can be so used on Unix; it cannot on Windows NT or later).
大概意思是,当这个临时文件处于打开状态,在unix平台,该名字可以用于再次打开临时文件,但是在windows不能。所以,如果要在windows打开该临时文件,需要将文件关闭,然后再打开,操作完文件后,再调用os.remove删除临时文件。
