I have a text file inside which I have paths to a few python files and the arguments that I would specify when I run them in a command prompt.
I am looking for a python script that opens up the text file and runs the python programs specified in the text file along with the provided arguments.
The text file will look something like `C:\hello.py world
C:\square.py 5`
i think you should refer to below :
Calling an external command in Python
read all lines in your command file get a list of python script file name and arguments like: " C:\hello.py and argument: word "
call them in below code style
from subprocess import call
call(["python C:\hello.py", "word"])
......
I don't think this post deserves down voting. But from now on I would suggest to OP to look for a solution yourself, and then if you can't find the answer post on stack overflow!
from subprocess import call
with open("somefile.txt", 'r') as f:
some_files_to_run = [line.split('\n')[0] for line in f.readlines()]
for file_to_run in some_files_to_run:
call(["python", file_to_run])
