How to prevent BrokenPipeError when doing a flush in Python?

Question

Question: Is there a way to use flush=True for the print() function without getting the BrokenPipeError?

I have a script pipe.py

Answer 1

Ignore SIGPPIE temporarily

I'm not sure how bad an idea this is, but it works:

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import signal
import sys

sigpipe_old = signal.getsignal(signal.SIGPIPE)
signal.signal(signal.SIGPIPE, signal.SIG_DFL)
for i in range(4000):
    print(i, flush=True)
signal.signal(signal.SIGPIPE, sigpipe_old)
