Running a Python script from PHP

Question

I\'m trying to run a Python script from PHP using the following command:

exec(\'/usr/bin/python2.7 /srv/http/assets/py/switch.py arg1 arg2\');

Answer 1

This is so trivial, but just wanted to help anyone who already followed along Alejandro's suggestion but encountered this error:

sh: blabla.py: command not found

If anyone encountered that error, then a little change needs to be made to the php file by Alejandro:

$command = escapeshellcmd('python blabla.py');
