I want to kill python interpeter - The intention is that all the python files that are running in this moment will stop (without any informantion about this files). obviously the processes should be closed.
Any idea as delete files in python or destroy the interpeter is ok :D (I am working with virtual machine). I need it from the terminal because i write c code and i use linux commands... Hope for help
pkill -9 python
should kill any running python process.
There's a rather crude way of doing this, but be careful because first, this relies on python interpreter process identifying themselves as python, and second, it has the concomitant effect of also killing any other processes identified by that name.
In short, you can kill all python interpreters by typing this into your shell (make sure you read the caveats above!):
ps aux | grep python | grep -v "grep python" | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill -9
To break this down, this is how it works. The first bit, ps aux | grep python | grep -v "grep python", gets the list of all processes calling themselves python, with the grep -v making sure that the grep command you just ran isn't also included in the output. Next, we use awk to get the second column of the output, which has the process ID's. Finally, these processes are all (rather unceremoniously) killed by supplying each of them with kill -9.
You can try the killall command:
killall python
pkill with script path
pkill -9 -f path/to/my_script.py
is a short and selective method that only kills the interpreter running a given script.

pgrep -f youAppFile.py | xargs kill -9
pgrep return the PID of the specific file and you kill only the specific application.
pgrep -f | xargs kill -9 this will kill the your process service. In my case it is 'pgrep -f python | xargs kill -9'
