It works on all supported platforms.</p> <p>In version 2.3 of Python, this module was overhauled for enhanced security. It now provides three new functions, <a class="reference internal" href="#tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile" title="tempfile.NamedTemporaryFile"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">NamedTemporaryFile()</span></tt></a>, <a class="reference internal" href="#tempfile.mkstemp" title="tempfile.mkstemp"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">mkstemp()</span></tt></a>, and <a class="reference internal" href="#tempfile.mkdtemp" title="tempfile.mkdtemp"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">mkdtemp()</span></tt></a>, which should eliminate all remaining need to use the insecure <a class="reference internal" href="#tempfile.mktemp" title="tempfile.mktemp"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">mktemp()</span></tt></a> function. Temporary file names created by this module no longer contain the process ID; instead a string of six random characters is used.</p> <p>Also, all the user-callable functions now take additional arguments which allow direct control over the location and name of temporary files. It is no longer necessary to use the global <em>tempdir</em> and <em>template</em> variables. To maintain backward compatibility, the argument order is somewhat odd; it is recommended to use keyword arguments for clarity.</p> <p>The module defines the following user-callable functions:</p> <dl class="function"> <dt id="tempfile.TemporaryFile"> <tt class="descclassname">tempfile.</tt><tt class="descname">TemporaryFile</tt><big>(</big><span class="optional">[</span><em>mode='w+b'</em><span class="optional">[</span>, <em>bufsize=-1</em><span class="optional">[</span>, <em>suffix=''</em><span class="optional">[</span>, <em>prefix='tmp'</em><span class="optional">[</span>, <em>dir=None</em><span class="optional">]</span><span class="optional">]</span><span class="optional">]</span><span class="optional">]</span><span class="optional">]</span><big>)</big><a class="headerlink" href="#tempfile.TemporaryFile" title="Permalink to this definition">¶</a></dt> <dd><p>Return a file-like object that can be used as a temporary storage area. The file is created using <a class="reference internal" href="#tempfile.mkstemp" title="tempfile.mkstemp"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">mkstemp()</span></tt></a>. It will be destroyed as soon as it is closed (including an implicit close when the object is garbage collected). Under Unix, the directory entry for the file is removed immediately after the file is created. Other platforms do not support this; your code should not rely on a temporary file created using this function having or not having a visible name in the file system.</p> <p>The <em>mode</em> parameter defaults to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">'w+b'</span></tt> so that the file created can be read and written without being closed. Binary mode is used so that it behaves consistently on all platforms without regard for the data that is stored. <em>bufsize</em> defaults to <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">-1</span></tt>, meaning that the operating system default is used.</p> <p>The <em>dir</em>, <em>prefix</em> and <em>suffix</em> parameters are passed to <a class="reference internal" href="#tempfile.mkstemp" title="tempfile.mkstemp"><tt class="xref py py-func docutils literal"><span class="pre">mkstemp()</span></tt></a>.</p> <p>The returned object is a true file object on POSIX platforms.
