Is there any way to run Google Lighthouse with php bash?-CodePudding

I try to use Google-Lighthouse on my website. I wrote a php file that called a bash-script to run lighthouse-cli.

run_bash.php :

  <?php

if(isset($_GET['subject2'])) {

$text = $_GET['subject2'];

$text = escapeshellarg($text);

$command = './rex.sh 2>&1 >> path/mylog ' . $text ;
$output = shell_exec($command);
echo "<pre>$output</pre>";

}
?>

my bash script:

rex.sh

#!/bin/bash
SITE=""
SITE=$1
VALUE=$(echo $SITE | awk -F'//' '{print $2}')
lighthouse $SITE --output html  --output-path ./path/$VALUE.html

and a simple php form that called run_bash.php well.

now problem is: if I run my bash script in shell with Putty it works well but when call my URL and run run_bash.php these error show at browser:

I'm curious to know if anyone has ever done this? Or is it possible at all?

CodePudding user response：

I finally found the answer! I had to use function exec()in the php file to run the bash script as bellow.

$output = exec('./rex.sh  ' . $text  );

And another important point. I changed the access level of all /var/www/ path files to www-data.
