i have bash script provided 3rd party defines set of functions. here's template of looks like

$ cat test.sh  #!/bin/bash  define go() {     echo "hello" } 

i can following bash shell call go():

$ source test.sh $ go hello

python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, sep 15 2010, 15:52:39)  [gcc 4.4.5] on linux2 type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" more information. >>> import subprocess >>> subprocess.call("source test.sh") traceback (most recent call last):   file "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>   file "/usr/lib/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 470, in call     return popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()   file "/usr/lib/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 623, in __init__     errread, errwrite)   file "/usr/lib/python2.6/subprocess.py", line 1141, in _execute_child     raise child_exception oserror: [errno 2] no such file or directory >>>  

yes, indirectly. given foo.sh:

function go() {      echo "hi"  } 

try this:

>>> subprocess.popen(['bash', '-c', '. foo.sh; go']) 

output:

hi
