在网络服务器上使用php运行python脚本

Question

I've got my website hosted at one.com and I'd like to run a simple python script with php that returns 'hello' but I get no result. It worked perfectly on local with Mamp. What should I configure for it to work online ?

My php code:

 <?php $result = shell_exec('python test.py'); echo $result; ?> 

The python script

 print('hello')

First of all make sure that the python script is executable on the server. For safety reasons I would remove the space in the filename as well so make it just test.py for now. You can make it executable by simple changing the permissions using chmod +x test.py

Then, you can try the following lines of code in php

<?php 

$command = escapeshellcmd('/usr/custom/test.py');
$output = shell_exec($command);
echo $output;

?>
