Ι need to change the paths using subprocess
but it doesn't work
I am using py3.6 - python-telegrambot
it's my code
def sh(bot,update):
ID = 289444284
command=update.message.text
print(command)
su = subprocess.getstatusoutput(command)
bot.sendMessage(ID,su[1] )
and also
subprocess.Popen(command, shell=True, stdout=PIPE).communicate()
subprocess.getoutput(command)
os.system(command)
But when I put the cd command back, I'm on the same path and the path does not change

When you call any of the above (subprocess.*
or os.system()
) you create a new (child) process if you run cd
this way, you change current working directory only for the cd
itself, but it does not affect your running python code and any command you execute afterwords. You'd need to use os.chdir()
or just hold that information and pass it into newly created children processing with cwd
keyword of subprocess.Popen()
.
