How to get Process ID of a python script?

[ITSMERSH]

Hi.

Does anyone know how to find out the process ID of a python script?

I need to check if jack_mixer is running, so I need something that returns the process ID of jack_mixer, which is a python script.

Thanks in advance,

RSH

Can't test, but I'd say this could do:

Code: Select all

pidjack_mixer=$(ps -eo pid,cmd | grep -v grep | grep "jack_mixer" | awk '{ print $1 }')
echo $pidjack_mixer

This seems to work very well.

Thanks!
