Subprocess cp returns error - bufsize must be integer [duplicate]

问题

This question already has an answer here:

bufsize must be an integer error while grepping a message (1 answer)

Closed 4 years ago.

I'm trying to copy from one directory to another, and rename them at the same time by calling 'cp' like so:

directories = ['/Users/Me/Folder1/File1.txt', '/Users/Me/Folder/File2.txt']
output = ['/Users/Me/Folder2/Hello.txt', 'Users/Me/Folder2/World.txt'] 
for in, out, in zip(directories, output):
    subprocess.call('cp', in, out)

But it returns:

 File "./test.py", line 33, in <module>
    subprocess.call('cp', in, out)
  File "/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.10_2/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 522, in call
    return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()
  File "/usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.10_2/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 659, in __init__
    raise TypeError("bufsize must be an integer")
TypeError: bufsize must be an integer

What am I doing wrong?

回答1:

subprocess.call('cp', in, out)

in is a python keyword. better use inp as variable name. Also, subprocess.call() expects a list of arguments, not multiple arguments:

for inp, out, in zip(directories, output):
    subprocess.call(['cp', inp, out])
