How to run python code from ace editor

Question

I am working on a project that uses ace editor.

I want to take the user's inputted python code and run the code and show the user the output. I know that this can be done for javascript but can it be done for python.

Any help would be apreciated.

Answer 1

To do that you have to get server side script support(PHP,ASP,JSP.. )

I can give you example from PHP, You have to send ace editor input to server and get executed output back to the output window, this question is broad, I gave you server side part !

<?php
   $myfile = fopen("main.py", "w") or die("Unable to open file!");
    $txt = "#print (\"Hello World!\")";
    fwrite($myfile, $txt);
    fclose($myfile);
    $output = `python main.py`;
    echo "<pre>$output</pre>";
?>

N.B :pyhton should be installed on your server and you should have permissions

The backtick operator is disabled when safe mode is enabled or shell_exec() is disabled.

hope this will be helpful !
