submit(cmd, background=False, background_stdout=False)

Open a subprocess and submit a command.

Parameters:

• cmd (str) – Command to be submitted using python subprocess.

• background (bool) – Flag to submit subprocess in the background. stdout stderr will be empty strings if this is True.

• background_stdout (bool) – Flag to capture the stdout/stderr from the background process in a nohup.out file.

Returns:

• stdout (str) – Subprocess standard output. This is decoded from the subprocess stdout with rstrip.
