bounded_subprocess 1.2.0

A small example package

bounded_subprocess

The bounded-subprocess module runs a subprocess with several bounds:

1. The subprocess runs in a Linux session, so the process and all its children can be killed;
2. The subprocess runs with a given timeout; and
3. The parent captures a bounded amount of output from the subprocess and discards the rest.

Note that the subprocess is not isolated: it can use the network, the filesystem, or create new sessions.

Installation

python3 -m pip install bounded-subprocess
