Sometimes (in customer's PCs) I need a python script to execute in the Windows shell like a .CMD or .BAT, but without having the .py or .pyw extensions associated with PYTHON / PYTHONW.
I came out with a pair of 'quick'n dirty' solutions:
1)
"""
e:\devtool\python\python.exe %0 :: or %PYTHONPATH%\python.exe
goto eof:
"""
# Python test
print "[works, but shows shell errors]"
2)
@echo off
for /f "skip=4 delims=xxx" %%l in (%0) do @echo %%l | e:\devtools\python\python.exe
goto :eof
::----------
# Python test
print "[works better, but is somewhat messy]"
Do you know a better solution? (ie: more concise or elegant)
Update:
based on @van answer, the more concise way I found (without setting ERRORLEVEL)
@e:\devtools\python\python.exe -x "%~f0" %* & exit /b
### Python begins....
import sys
for arg in sys.argv:
print arg
raw_input("It works!!!\n")
###
You can try to create a script what is both python
and windows shell script
. In this case you can name you file my_flexible_script.bat
and execute it either directly or via python ...
.
See a content of pylint.bat
file from pylint:
@echo off
rem = """-*-Python-*- script
rem -------------------- DOS section --------------------
rem You could set PYTHONPATH or TK environment variables here
python -x "%~f0" %*
goto exit
"""
# -------------------- Python section --------------------
import sys
from pylint import lint
lint.Run(sys.argv[1:])
DosExitLabel = """
:exit
exit(ERRORLEVEL)
rem """
It is similar to what you do, but has more compliant dual-script
support.
