Python Linux Console - Get cursor position

Question

The title of the post is self-explanatory.
I wanna know how can I take the Linux terminal cursor position.

For instance, I'm currently setting the position like so:

print('\033[10;10f')

Answer 1

After some more research I found the correct answer is here. And after some fixes it ended like so:

import re, sys, termios, tty

def getpos():
  buff = ''
  stdin = sys.stdin.fileno()
  tattr = termios.tcgetattr(stdin)

  try:
    tty.setcbreak(stdin, termios.TCSANOW)
    sys.stdout.write('\033[6n')
    sys.stdout.flush()

    while True:
      buff += sys.stdin.read(1)
      if buff[-1] == 'R': break
  finally:
    termios.tcsetattr(stdin, termios.TCSANOW, tattr)

  matches = re.match(r'^\033\[(\d*);(\d*)R', buff)
  if matches == None: return None

  groups = matches.groups()
  return (int(groups[0]), int(groups[1]))
