How to replicate tee behavior in Python when using subprocess?

by

I see that this is a rather old post but just in case someone is still searching for a way to do this:

proc = subprocess.Popen(["ping", "localhost"], 
                        stdout=subprocess.PIPE, 
                        stderr=subprocess.PIPE)

with open("logfile.txt", "w") as log_file:
  while proc.poll() is None:
     line = proc.stderr.readline()
     if line:
        print "err: " + line.strip()
        log_file.write(line)
     line = proc.stdout.readline()
     if line:
        print "out: " + line.strip()
        log_file.write(line)
