• How to call bash process from within django / wsgi?

  - by chang

  I'm using mod_wsgi apache2 adapter for a django site and I like to call some bash process within a view, using the usual ... p = subprocess.Popen("/home/example.com/restart-tomcat.sh", shell=True) sts = os.waitpid(p.pid, 0)[1] ... This code works perfectly from within a usual python shell but does nothing (I can trace right now) when called within django. Am I missing some wsgi constraints? The script has 755 perms, so it should be executable. Thanks.

• Bash: how to process variables from an input file?

  - by gilgongo

  I've got a bash script that reads input from a file like this: while IFS="|" read -r a b do echo "$a something $b somethingelse" done < "$FILE" The file it reads looketh like this: http://someurl1.com|label1 http://someurl2.com|label2 However, I'd like to be able to insert the names of variables into that file when it suits me, and have the script process them when it sees them, so the file might look like this: http://someurl1.com?$VAR|label1 http://someurl2.com|label2 So $VAR could be, for example, today's date, producing an output like this: http://someurl1.com something label1 somethingelse http://someurl2.com?20100320 something label2 somethingelse
