I want PHP to show the result of PYTHON code

PYTHON

x = 4 * 5
print(x)

PHP

<?php
$teste = shell_exec('python codigopython.py 2>&1');
echo $teste; ?>

The result I’m getting is:

'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command, a operable program or a batch file.

But if I run python code on CMD, it works normally

php python

  • And where is your Python? is where it can be accessed universally by the operating system?

  • is along with index.php on the path: C: wamp64 www test-php-python codigopython.py I’ve tried using shell_exec with the path, but gives the same result. shell_exec('python C: wamp64 www test-php-python python codigopython.py 2>&1'); 'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command, a operable program, or a batch file.

    Caio, I believe the question was whether your Python interpreter is accessible, not whether your Python script is accessible.

  • user140828, I think so, because shell_exec is getting to the python code, but when it comes to executing, it’s not working.

  • If you gave the error cited, Windows is not locating the Python interpreter on your machine - so it doesn’t even "get to the code". Check whether the Python executable is in your PATH environment variable or run by passing the interpreter absolute path.

  • Thanks Anderson Carlos Woss, the PATH is correct, but it only worked by passing the absolute path of the interpreter.

Use this

<?php

$comando = escapeshellcmd('./ficheiro_python.py');
$cmdResult = shell_exec($comando);
echo $cmdResult;

?>

As line "shebang" you should have the following in the python file:

#!/usr/bin/env python

You should also have permissions to run that file.

Successfully tested with Ubuntu 16, PHP7.0 and python 2.7.
