how to use subprocess.Pope n execute "find" in windows

In cmd, I can use find like this.

C:\>netstat -an | find "445"
TCP 0.0.0.0:445 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
UDP 0.0.0.0:445 *:*

C:\>

And os.system is OK.
>>import os
os.system('ne tstat -an | find "445"')
TCP 0.0.0.0:445 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
UDP 0.0.0.0:445 *:*
0
>>>
But I don't know how to use subprocess.Pope n to do this.

from subprocess import Popen, PIPE

p1 = Popen(['netstat', '-an'], stdout = PIPE)
p2 = Popen(['find', '"445"'], stdin = p1.stdout, stdout = PIPE)
print p2.stdout.read( )

It doesn't work.
Because subprocess.Pope n execute "find" like this.

C:\>find \"445\"
拒绝访问 - \

C:\>

It adds a '\' before each '"'.
How to remove the '\'?
Thank you.

While there certainly are valid usecases for piping with subprocess in
Python - this ain't one I'd say. Just read the output of netstat yourself,
and filter for lines that contain the desired pattern.

I would say that, according to documentation, the following should
work:
print p2.communicate( )[0]

Get rid of the extra quotes. ie:
p2 = Popen(['find', '445'], stdin = p1.stdout, stdout = PIPE)

The quotes on the command line and on the os.system call are consumed
by the shell. The program doesn't see them.

findstr doesn't need quotes, so it works.

You must be a linux user:)

I guess, in windows, the quotes are consumed by the c runtime library.
Mayby the "find" in windows doesn't use the argc/argv but the windows
API GetCommandLine( ).

I wrote a c program to prove it.

#include <windows.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
int i;

printf("%s\n", GetCommandLine( ));
for (i = 0; i < argc; ++i)
printf("%d: %s\n", i, argv[i]);

return 0;
}

The output is:
C:\>test 1 2 "3"
test 1 2 "3"
0: test
1: 1
2: 2
3: 3

C:\>

Notice that, GetCommandLine( ) does not consume the quotes, but the
(char **argv) does.

findstr doesn't need quotes, so it works.
Build the command line yourself -instead of using a list of arguments-. Popen doesn't play with the quotes in that case:

p1 = Popen(['netstat', '-an'], stdout = PIPE) # using list
p2 = Popen('find "445"', stdin = p1.stdout, stdout = PIPE) # using str
print p2.communicate( )[0]
