How to get and print Jenkins console output in Python script

Question

I am trying to trigger a jenkins job using python script with jenkinsapi module.

import jenkinsapi
from jenkinsapi.jenkins import Jenkins
J = Jenkins('http://localhost:8080')
J.build_job('testjob')

I want to print console output from jenkins job which gets triggered with this in my python script. Can someone suggest me how can I achieve this?

Do you need to get it in real time or is it good enough to get it when the build ends? — Tidhar Klein Orbach, Dec 25 '16 at 06:35
@ Tizki, I wanted it in real time and I was able to resolve it. Posting the answer separately. — , Dec 26 '16 at 18:36

I was able to resolve it with real time logs getting dumped into /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/#job_title#/builds/#build_id#
