By the time you get around to doing anything with the file name it returns, someone else may have beaten you to the punch. mktemp() usage can be replaced easily with NamedTemporaryFile(), passing it the delete=False parameter: f = NamedTemporaryFile(delete=False) f.name '/tmp/tmptjujjt' f.write(b"Hello World!\n") 13 f.close() os.unlink(f.name) os.path.exists(f.name) False Table of Contents tempfile — Generate temporary files and directories Examples Deprecated functions and variables Previous topic filecmp — File and Directory Comparisons Next topic glob — Unix style pathname pattern expansion This page Report a bug Show source « Navigation index modules | next | previous | Python » 3.13.18 Documentation » The Python standard library » File and Directory Access » tempfile — Generate temporary files and directories | Theme Auto Light Dark | © Copyright 2001-2026, Python Software Foundation.

Sealed job c6ecc4152fb897439e5be4a1397e0f5b. Shards: agent.scout. Dropped 0 off-topic collector hit(s) and 0 off-topic local claim(s). Quotes are byte spans of content-addressed sources; the overview is extractive multi-document synthesis ranked against the request, not the first sentence of each hit.

For agents: the quotes as data, GET /wiki/python-tempfile with Accept: application/json; free within the daily allowance, else a small price that is a share of the fetching and reading it replaces.
