You can use like this also:
String command = "python /c start python path\to\script\script.py";
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command + param );
or
String prg = "import sys";
BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("path/a.py"));
out.write(prg);
out.close();
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("python path/a.py");
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
String ret = in.readLine();
System.out.println("value is : "+ret);

Run Python script from Java
I believe we can use ProcessBuilder
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("python "+cmd + py + ".py");
.....
//since exec has its own process we can use that
ProcessBuilder builder = new ProcessBuilder("python", py + ".py");
builder.directory(new File(cmd));
builder.redirectError();
....
Process newProcess = builder.start();

Not sure if I understand your question correctly, but provided that you can call the Python executable from the console and just want to capture its output in Java, you can use the exec() method in the Java Runtime class.
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("python yourapp.py");
You can read up on how to actually read the output from this resource: http://www.devdaily.com/java/edu/pj/pj010016 import java.io.*;
public class JavaRunCommand {
public static void main(String args[]) {
String s = null;
try {
// run the Unix "ps -ef" command
// using the Runtime exec method:
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("ps -ef");
BufferedReader stdInput = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(p.getInputStream()));
BufferedReader stdError = new BufferedReader(new
InputStreamReader(p.getErrorStream()));
// read the output from the command
System.out.println("Here is the standard output of the command:\n");
while ((s = stdInput.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(s);
}
// read any errors from the attempted command
System.out.println("Here is the standard error of the command (if any):\n");
while ((s = stdError.readLine()) != null) {
System.out.println(s);
}
System.exit(0);
}
catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println("exception happened - here's what I know: ");
e.printStackTrace();
System.exit(-1);
}
}
}
There is also an Apache library (the Apache exec project) that can help you with this. You can read more about it here:
http://www.devdaily.com/java/java-exec-processbuilder-process-1
http://commons.apache.org/exec/
You can include the Jython library in your Java Project. You can download the source code from the Jython project itself.
Jython does offers support for JSR-223 which basically lets you run a Python script from Java.
You can use a ScriptContext to configure where you want to send your output of the execution.
For instance, let's suppose you have the following Python script in a file named numbers.py:
for i in range(1,10):
print(i)
So, you can run it from Java as follows:
public static void main(String[] args) throws ScriptException, IOException {
StringWriter writer = new StringWriter(); //ouput will be stored here
ScriptEngineManager manager = new ScriptEngineManager();
ScriptContext context = new SimpleScriptContext();
context.setWriter(writer); //configures output redirection
ScriptEngine engine = manager.getEngineByName("python");
engine.eval(new FileReader("numbers.py"), context);
System.out.println(writer.toString());
}
And the output will be:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
As long as your Python script is compatible with Python 2.5 you will not have any problems running this with Jython.
So I have deployed my python code in EC2 instance. Now, I have connected my java file with ec2 instance over SFTP. I want to call python code which is in server from java everytime new file is created in java.
Please help...Thanks in advance
Use the newer ProcessBuilder class:
ProcessBuilder pb = new ProcessBuilder("python","Refresh.py");
Process p = pb.start();
Hope that works for you!
You are not checking for errors from the python script. You can achieve this simply by merging STDERR to STDOUT and reporting the content of STDOUT to console:
Process p = new ProcessBuilder("python", "Refresh.py")
.redirectErrorStream(true)
.start();
p.getInputStream().transferTo(System.out);
int rc = p.waitFor();
This should print out the error message from python and give you error code back. You may have problems with path to files, so you might need to adjust your arguments to explicit pathnames to "python" and/or "Refresh.py".
The problem had multiple layers and solutions: 1. I didn't put .py file in jar build config 2. After putting it I always got an exception that it is null because of a typo in code 3. After trying many ways to run it this one worked Cannot run python script from java jar . The important thing is to check if you added py file to the build config and to run it in a proper way since python cannot runt files from the zip and compressed states.
Assuming the script is in the jar file, you can get an input stream from the resource, and use it as the input to a Process created from the python interpreter:
// Note: the path to the script here is relative to the current class
// and follows strict resource name rules, since this is in a jar file
InputStream script = getClass().getResourceAsStream("visualize3D.py");
// The following creates a process to run python3.
// This assumes python3 is on the system path. Provide the full
// path to the python3 interpreter (e.g. /usr/bin/python3) if it's
// not on the path.
// The - option to python3 instructs it to execute a script provided
// as standard input.
Process process = new ProcessBuilder("python3", "-")
.start() ;
OutputStream out = process.getOutputStream();
byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
int read = 0;
while((read = script.read(buffer)) != -1) {
pos.write(buffer, 0, read);
}
script.close();
For details on getting the correct path for the script, see How do I determine the correct path for FXML files, CSS files, Images, and other resources needed by my JavaFX Application?
I'm a python dev, like I know literally no Java. But because I'm experienced in python I can at least kinda understand what I'm doing in Java. But I'm stuck on this. I know it's basic shit, I can do this in python, but I just can't read the language so I can't read any help or guides either.
All I need to do really is start a python program from Java as a subprocess, receive it's output stream and be able to send to its input stream.
The python program is a discord bot using async/await stuff and will run continuously so it needs to be uninterrupted, like if it was run from the terminal EXCEPT the Java program can send input and receive output.
I also suck att processes and stuff (this is on Windows btw) and as I said I suck at Java too so sorry if I gave to little information or something. Just tell me if that's the case.
Thanks in advance :D
