一 p4的API支持几乎所有的常用的语言
1)查看p4 API 主页: ​​​http://www.perforce.com/perforce/loadsupp.html#api​​ (包含下载 和 p4script.pdf)

2)支持几乎所有的语言: 

Perforce C/C++ API
Perforce Java API
Perforce Perl API
Perforce Ruby API
Perforce Python API
Perforce PHP API
Perforce Objective-C API
P4COM, a COM Interface to the Perforce C++ API for Windows

 

二 p4python

1)安装(以windows为例)

下载和安装python2.6;(可以安装activepython)

下载和安装p4python26;(ftp://ftp.perforce.com/perforce/r09.2/bin.ntx86/p4python26.exe)

2)安装后(C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages)

文件:P4.py + P4.pyc + P4API.pyd + P4Python-2009.2-py2.6.egg-info。其中P4API.pyd为python对p4的extension模块,里面定义了 P4API.P4Adapter可惜看不到源码,P4.py 里面包含了p4 class的定义,p4class从P4API.P4Adapter继承。

3)p4.py

在p4.py中定义了

• P4
• P4Exception
• DepotFile
• Revision
• Integration
• MergeData
• Spec

其中主要的p4 class定义如下:

import P4API

class P4(P4API.P4Adapter):
"""Use this class to communicate with a Perforce server

Instances of P4 will use the environment settings (including P4CONFIG)
to determine the connection parameters such as P4CLIENT and P4PORT.

This attributes can also be set separately before connecting.

To run any Perforce commands, users of this class first need to run
the connect() method.

It is good practice to disconnect() after the program is complete.

三 实例
1)p4info.py

from P4 import P4,P4Exception

p4 = P4()
p4.port = "localhost:1666"
p4.user = "AAA"
p4.password = "aaa"
p4.client = "TestProject_AAA"

try:
p4.connect()
info = p4.run("info")
for key in info[0]:
print key, "=", info[0][key]
p4.disconnect()
except P4Exception:
for e in p4.errors:
print e

2)p4sync.py 

from P4 import P4, P4Exception

p4 = P4()
p4.port = "localhost:1666"
p4.user = "AAA"
p4.password = "aaa"
p4.client = "TestProject_AAA"

try:
p4.connect()
p4.exception_level = 1 # ignore "File(s) up-to-date"
files = p4.run_sync()
for file in files:
for key in file.keys():
print key,":",file[key]
print "----------"
except P4Exception:
for e in p4.errors:
print e
finally:
p4.disconnect()



结果:

3)p4submit.py

from P4 import P4

p4 = P4()
p4.host = "localhost"
p4.port = "1666"
p4.user = "AAA"
p4.password = "aaa"
p4.client = "TestProject_AAA"

p4.connect()
changeSpec = p4.run_change( "-o" )
change = changeSpec[0]
change["Description"] = "Autosubmitted changelist"

p4.run_edit("//depot/TestProject/addfile.txt")

change["Files"] = ["//depot/TestProject/addfile.txt"]
p4.input = change
p4.run_submit( "-i" )
p4.disconnect()

 

所有的p4 command 都可以使用p4.run_command()或p4.run(command)来调用。
