This would look like: ```python ... deletes the file [2]. To handle this scenario, my proposal is two-fold: 1) stop using the TEMPFILE OS attribute so the OS doesn't delete the file on close 2) add `.open()` to NamedTemporaryFile A possible side effect of (1) is that temp ...

On a side note, delete=True is the default: http://docs.python.org/library/tempfile#tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile Just don't specify it and you'll be fine.

[issue23755] tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile should be able to toggle "delete"
Permalink Martin Panter added the comment: I think I have often passed delete=False because of the documented deficiency with Windows (see Issue 14243). Depending on the outcome of that issue, allowing for deletion after close() might be useful too. BTW, monkey-patching __del__() probably won’t work if you only set an attribute on the “f” instance, instead of modifying the class itself.

It's an incorrect presumption that you have to close the file before other processes can access it. In fact, as you observed, when you call close on the NamedTemporaryFile it deletes the file on disk by default.
With tempfiles as with all of Python, scope and lifetime are all important. That's one of the great things about object orient languages, objects clean up after themselves when they're no longer needed (either deleted or go out of scope). Upon destruction, the tempfile objects free all resources in memory and named files on disk.
Thus, if you want to use the temporary file on disk by using the file system name, the NamedTemporaryFile should be in scope and unclosed. It's not guaranteed across all platforms, but on Unix/Linux the file should be accessible in the file system by other processes. However, the NamedTemporaryFile creates the file to readable and writeable only by the owner (unix permission 0600: -rw-------).
If you want/need to do more of this management and cleanup yourself, you might consider using the lower level function tempfile.mkstemp(). For example,
fd, tempfilename = tempfile.mkstemp()
f = os.fdopen(fd)
In either case be sure you flush the buffers before giving the filename to another process, file.flush().

So that you can use it in the with statement as a context manager and you can get the name of the file via the name property. Consider:
with tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile() as tmp_file:
subprocess.call(['foo', tmp_file.name])
do_something_with(tmp_file)
This will automatically delete the file when the body of the with statement is exited either normally or by exception.

tempfile — Generate temporary files and directories
Files names used by this module include a string of random characters which allows those files to be securely created in shared temporary directories. To maintain backward compatibility, the argument order is somewhat odd; it is recommended to use keyword arguments for clarity.

tempfile: changing 'delete' property of NamedTemporaryFile after creation - Ideas - Discussions on Python.org
September 12, 2023 - Sometimes, one creates a file that should be persisted somewhere, but only after lots of work and/or sanity checks. For that, it would be useful to be able to create a tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile with the default delete=True, but then, once all the work is done and the file is to be kept, one should be able to do os.rename(f.name, final_location) f.set_delete(False) # this f.close() In fact, since the object one gets from the NamedTemporaryFile() call has a .delete property, one is easily led...
