[Tutor] Request for help with os.walk() combining os.path.ismount() in Linux
Hello Folks,
Please consider the following 2 scripts:
1. os_path_ismount.py:
import os
import sys
out = sys.stdout.write
out("%s\n" % os.path.ismount(sys.argv[1]))
2. os_walk.py:
import sys
import os
out = sys.stdout.write
for root, dirs, files in os.walk("/"):
out("The dirs before removing mount points: %s\n" % dirs)
for d in dirs:
dname = os.path.join(root, d)
if os.path.ismount(dname):
dirs.remove(d)
out("The dirs after removing mount points: %s\n" % dirs)
sys.exit()
Am at a loss to understand this quirky behaviour on Fedora 22 (x86-64;
both stock-standard python 2.7.10 & 3.4.2):
[srihari@laptop ~]$ python2 ./os_path_ismount.py /proc
True
[srihari@laptop ~]$ python3 ./os_path_ismount.py /proc
True
[srihari@laptop ~]$ python2 ./os_walk.py
The dirs before removing mount points: ['run', 'dev', 'srv', 'fedora',
'root', 'bin', 'lib', 'opt', 'lost+found', 'etc', 'sbin', 'var',
'sys', 'media', 'backup', 'home', 'usr', 'tmp', 'proc', 'mnt', 'boot',
'lib64']
The dirs after removing mount points: ['dev', 'srv', 'fedora', 'root',
'bin', 'lib', 'opt', 'lost+found', 'etc', 'sbin', 'var', 'media',
'backup', 'usr', 'proc', 'mnt', 'lib64']
[srihari@laptop ~]$ python3 ./os_walk.py
The dirs before removing mount points: ['run', 'dev', 'srv', 'fedora',
'root', 'bin', 'lib', 'opt', 'lost+found', 'etc', 'sbin', 'var',
'sys', 'media', 'backup', 'home', 'usr', 'tmp', 'proc', 'mnt', 'boot',
'lib64']
The dirs after removing mount points: ['dev', 'srv', 'fedora', 'root',
'bin', 'lib', 'opt', 'lost+found', 'etc', 'sbin', 'var', 'media',
'backup', 'usr', 'proc', 'mnt', 'lib64']
Undoubtedly proc (to be precise /proc) (same for /dev as well) is
indeed a mount point, yet it's somehow not being evicted. So am I
doing something silly? Could somebody please explain what am I doing
wrong here?
However, /run & /sys are being evicted, which is good, of course.
(Interestingly, I get different results on different platforms:
CentOS6.7 gives some results, CentOS7.1 something else, i.e., am
totally baffled!)
Thank you.
Srihari Vijayaraghavan
PS: Of course, I could add an exclusion list to take out the "known"
mount points, but that won't be elegant I reckon. Certainly, it won't
be for my real usage scenario.

It's never a good idea to remove items from the thing
you are iterating over. Create a copy of dirs (dirs[:])
to iterate on then remove the items from the original
dirs.
It always amazes me how often the same issues come up in

[Tutor] iteration help
Running python 2.7 on Linux
While for and if loops always seem to give me trouble. They seem obvious
but I often don't get the result I expect and I struggle to figure out why.
Appended below is a partial script. Ultimately, this script will read a
log, parse out two times from each line of the log, a time the line was
written to the lg (called serverTime in the script) and an action time from
elsewhere in the line, then get the difference between the two. I don't
want every difference, but rather the average per hour, so I have a line
count. The script will output the average time difference for each hour.
I've got most of the pieces working in test scripts, but I'm stymied with
the single output bit.
The idea is that the script takes the hour from the server time of the
first line of the log and sets that as the initial serverHr. That works,
has been tested. Next the script is supposed to iterate through each line
of the log (for line in f1) and then check that there is a time in the line
(try), and if not skip to the next line. That works, has been tested.
As each line is iterated over, my intent was that the variable newServerHr
(read from the current line) is compared to serverHr and if they are the
same, the script will increase the count by one and add the difference to a
cummulative total then go to the next line. If the newServerHr and serverHr
are not the same, then we have entered a new clock hour, and the script
should calculate averages and output those, zero all counts and cummulative
totals, then carry on. The idea being that out of 117,000 ish lines of log
(the test file) that have inputs from 0200 to 0700, I would get 6 lines of
output.
I've got everything working properly in a different script except I get 25
lines of output instead of 6, writing something like 16 different hours
instead of 02 - 07.
In trying to chase down my bug, I wrote the appended script, but it outputs
117,000 ish lines (times 02-07, so that bit is better), not 6. Can someone
tell me what I'm misunderstanding?
#!/usr/bin/env python
import re
f1 = open('ATLA_PS4_red5.log', 'r')
f2 = open('recurseOut.log', 'a')
# read server time of first line to get hour
first_line = f1.readline()
q = re.search(r'\d\d:\d\d:\d\d', first_line)
q2 = q.start()
serverHr = (first_line[q2:q2+2])
for line in f1:
try:
s = line
#read server time
a = re.search(r'\d\d:\d\d:\d\d', s) # find server time in line
b = a.start()# find 1st position of srvTime
newServerHr = (s[b:b+2]) # what hour is it now?

1. You don't need s, you can use line directly.
2. In your else: code, you want = not == since you want to assign the
new value to the serverHr. That line does nothing now since it is
comparing two values, but making no decision based on the comparison.
3. I'm guessing you are coming from another language. In python
people generally use lower case names with underscores between words.

In general I agree, but this is what the os.walk() document states:
"... When topdown is True, the caller can modify the dirnames list
in-place (perhaps using del or slice assignment)..."
(Yes, the topdown argument of os.walk() is True by default, until
manually modified.)
Therefore I see no problem with in-place modification of dirnames.
I've made a copy of dirs & iterated over it, which made no difference
in my case.
My issue is that some of the virtual or in memory file systems' mount
points (like /proc, /dev) are failing to be recognised properly under
os.path.ismount(). Perhaps this quirkiness is irresolvable??
Thank you.

Sorry to reply to my own email.
I stand corrected. Indeed, while iterating over dirs (in the above
example) & doing in-place modification was the source of the problem,
giving unpredictable outcome. While iterating over its copy & updating
the original dirs, gives expected results.
Perhaps my interpretation of the document wasn't correct. Anyway, it's
working now.
Thank you folks, especially Alan.

That is, altering dirs does not have any nagative impact on the subsequent iterations of os.walk. So even if you delete items from dirs os.walk will continue to iterate over those deleted directories in subsequent calls to os.walk() But altering dirs within the current iteration does affect dirs within that iteration, just like any other collection. So your for loop inside the os.walk loop is affected by the deletions even if the outer os.walk loop is not. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

When you are programming you have to follow the rules of the
language very carefully. Its not like English, say, where
you have a lot of flexibility in the order that you say
things. Also you have to get the punctuation (the syntax)
exactly right, any missing commas, or brackets, or quotes
or, in your case, colons will stop your code working.
Taking your last two lines, you need to spell them like this:
if time<=2:
print("that seems reasonable")
else:
print ("get a life")
The if must come first.
There must be a colon after the if expression
and the thing you want executed.
There must also be a colon after the else and the thing
you want executed.
There is an alternative way of writing what you want but
it's not very commonly used:
print("that seems reasonable" if time <=2 else "get a life")
Notice that the if/else are all inside the print's parentheses.
The expression basically passes a single string to print depending
on the test result. You could expand it like this instead:
message = "that seems reasonable" if time <=2 else "get a life"
print(message)

should calculate averages and output those, zero all counts and cummulative
totals, then carry on. The idea being that out of 117,000 ish lines of log
(the test file) that have inputs from 0200 to 0700, I would get 6 lines of
output.
I've got everything working properly in a different script except I get 25
lines of output instead of 6, writing something like 16 different hours
instead of 02 - 07.
In trying to chase down my bug, I wrote the appended script, but it outputs
117,000 ish lines (times 02-07, so that bit is better), not 6. Can someone
tell me what I'm misunderstanding?
#!/usr/bin/env python
import re
f1 = open('ATLA_PS4_red5.log', 'r')
f2 = open('recurseOut.log', 'a')
# read server time of first line to get hour
first_line = f1.readline()
q = re.search(r'\d\d:\d\d:\d\d', first_line)
q2 = q.start()
serverHr = (first_line[q2:q2+2])
Are you absolutely certain that this will always be set correctly?
for line in f1:
try:
s = line
The line above does nothing effective so remove it.
#read server time
a = re.search(r'\d\d:\d\d:\d\d', s) # find server time in line
b = a.start()# find 1st position of srvTime
newServerHr = (s[b:b+2]) # what hour is it now?
if newServerHr != serverHr:
f2.write('hour ' + newServerHr + '\n')
else:
serverHr == newServerHr
Is it possible that lines don't contain a valid time in which case b
will be -1? Your slice will run from -1, the last character in the line,
to +1, i.e. an empty string "".
except:
pass
Remove the try and plain except as it'll mask any problems that you get
in the code. It also prevents CTRL-C or similar from breaking infinite
loops that you've accidentally written.

There is an alternative way of writing what you want but
it's not very commonly used:
print("that seems reasonable" if time <=2 else "get a life")
I just realized that the OP's version would actually work
in Python v3 because print is a function.
It effectively evaluates as
None if time <= 2 else None
But can I suggest that it's not a good style to get into.
Either of the options that i suggested in my last mail
would be more idiomatic in the Python community.

[Tutor] Do not understand why test is running.
I adopted Peter's suggestions (I think!) and now have these two paths that are pertinent to my questions: Projects/mcm/mcm/db/manager.py # The module I am beginning to write tests for. Projects/mcm/test/db/test_manager.py# The file for my module tests. The test code currently is: import unittest # import modules to be tested: import mcm.db.manager class ManagerTestCase(unittest.TestCase): def setUp(self): # Insert setup code here... pass def test_open_db(self): pass def tearDown(self): # Insert tear-down code here... pass #if __name__ == "__main__": #unittest.main() Out of curiosity, I changed the last two lines to comments, as I am still feeling my way around this package structure and how things work. I was surprised when I ran my test now: E:\Projects\mcm>py -m unittest discover -v test_open_db (test.db.test_manager.ManagerTestCase) ... ok -- Ran 1 test in 0.000s OK Obviously I was not expecting this! Why did the test run? I thought it would not happen without those final two lines. -- boB ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

What you actually did was: "Hey unittest, see what tests you can discover, and run those tests." instead of: "Hey Python, run this script." (script says) "Hey unittest, run the tests you find inside me." -- Steve ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor

Okay, I uncommented those two lines and got:

Yea, breaking things is an art form ;)
If you want to trigger the
if __name__ == "__main__": ...
you have to invoke the test script with
py ./mcm/test/db/test_manager.py
the same way you would invoke any other script.
py -m unittest
runs the unittest module which is free to do what it wants with its
arguments. Let's see:
$ python3 -m unittest -h
usage: python3 -m unittest [-h] [-v] [-q] [-f] [-c] [-b] [tests [tests ...]]
positional arguments:
tests a list of any number of test modules, classes and test
methods.
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v, --verbose Verbose output
-q, --quiet Quiet output
-f, --failfast Stop on first fail or error
-c, --catch Catch ctrl-C and display results so far
-b, --bufferBuffer stdout and stderr during tests
Examples:
python3 -m unittest test_module - run tests from test_module
python3 -m unittest module.TestClass - run tests from
module.TestClass
python3 -m unittest module.Class.test_method - run specified test method
usage: python3 -m unittest discover [-h] [-v] [-q] [-f] [-c] [-b] [-s START]
[-p PATTERN] [-t TOP]
optional arguments:
-h, --helpshow this help message and exit
-v, --verbose Verbose output
-q, --quiet Quiet output
-f, --failfastStop on first fail or error
-c, --catch Catch ctrl-C and display results so far
-b, --buffer Buffer stdout and stderr during tests
-s START, --start-directory START
Directory to start discovery ('.' default)
-p PATTERN, --pattern PATTERN
Pattern to match tests ('test*.py' default)
-t TOP, --top-level-directory TOP
Top level directory of project (defaults to start
directory)
For test discovery all test modules must be importable from the top level
directory of the project.
Did you spot the relevant lines? It's
"""
positional arguments:
tests a list of any number of test modules, classes and test
methods.
"""
"""
or
python3 -m unittest module.TestClass - run tests from
module.TestClass
"""
Unfortunately the implementation is dumb enough to interpret
./mcm/test/db/test_manager.py
as class "/mcm/test/db/test_manager.py" in module "". You get the same
complaint as for ".foo" (or just "."):
$ python3 -m unittest .foo
