1. 网上有很多种使用python实现tail的方法，大体思想都一样，典型的一种如下：

2. 但是考虑到集中情况，上面的方法会失效（shell中tail命令甚至也会失效）
(1) 正在tail的文件被清空，例如 echo "" > test.log （这种情况下tail依然可以打印，上面程序无法打印）
(2) 日志被logrotate以copy形式切割时，这种情况下tail依然可以打印，上面程序无法打印
(3) 日志被logrotate以新建文件形式切割时，上面两种方法都会失效。
我的应用场景是需要兼容上面的情况的，由于时间匆忙，简单的改良了一下，可以兼容上面的两种情况，同事可以避免由于logrotate切割导致的日志丢失，代码如下：

上面程序通过简单的测试，可以解决以上几种情况，由于比较匆忙，没有仔细考虑，也希望大家有什么想法尽量贡献哈。
