Temporarly Prevent Forced Sleep on Mac OS X through Python/Terminal

Vote count:

How can one disable forced sleep (sleep caused by the user - often by closing lid/pressing Sleep under the apple menu) through Terminal, preferably with a Python script, on OS X? I would like to be able to run the following or similiar...

import os
cmd = """ *?*Sleep Disable Command*?* """
def fullVolume():
     os.system(cmd)

while True:
    fullVolume()

...to accomplish said task.

I have done a fair share of research, and I couldn't find much, bar this: http://ift.tt/1LT3coZ

And this: http://ift.tt/VuZb2b http://ift.tt/1LT3fBp

I believe there may be some way to incorporate code from the NoSleep extension into this script, but I am quite unsure on how to do so. Help is much appreciated! =)
