How to write Python 3 code in a Java web code?

Question

I am trying to write inside a JSP/Servlet Java web project, a python-3 Machine Learning code depends on torch and some advanced frameworks.

I tried:

to use Jython but it did not work because it only works for python 2 programs.
to use ProcessBuilder and Runtime.getRuntime().exec("pythonFile.py") to execute the python file but nothing worked.

Is there any suggestions on how to write that Python code in the Java project or communicate them?

For option #2, you'd need to pass the python executable into the exec method. For example:

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("python pythonFile.py")

Correct! The first word in the argument should be the name of the software e.g. Runtime.getRuntime().exec("notepad") or Runtime.getRuntime().exec("notepad test.txt"), in the same way as you give command on terminal/cmd e.g. C:\>notepad or C:\notepad test.txt.

There is also GraalPy (https://www.graalvm.org/python), which can be embedded in Java like Jython, but supports Python 3 and also unlike Jython it can run Python native extensions (NumPy and such) and has JIT compiler.

The usage looks like this:

        try (Context context = Context.newBuilder("python")
                         /* Enabling some of these is needed for various standard library modules */
                        .allowIO(IOAccess.newBuilder()
                                        .allowHostFileAccess(false)
                                        .allowHostSocketAccess(false)
                                        .build())
                        .build()) {
            context.eval("python", "print('Hello from GraalPy!')");
        }
