Calling OpenCV python script with php page

Question

I am trying to run a Python Script for Image Detection Via a php page and to catch and display the output generated by py script.

Here is my python script GITHUB LINK

I am running the python script using this code :

$command = escapeshellcmd('sudo python Main.py');
$output = shell_exec($command);
echo $output;

This is producing this error :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "Main.py", line 3, in <module>
    import cv2
ImportError: No module named cv2

****But the same script works fine when executed independently with terminal. I have used anaconda for installation of Opencv****

Thanks in advance :)

Are you typing the same command while executing the script independently in terminal? — Sam Chats

Anaconda creates separate environment so you need to start your script using python copy from that enviroment

$command = escapeshellcmd('sudo /home/path_to_anacondad_env/python Main.py');

The same thing happened to me, I installed openCV with pip install but when I ran it from php I couldn't find it, but I found that I only have to install it globally with this command: sudo apt-get install python3-opencv I restarted Apache and that worked for me
