Run Python From Another Python Script (using Web)

Introduction:

There are 2 main open source scripts developed by me called control.py and test_run.py , this is a demonstration of how you can run a python script within another script. As control.py can be accessed through web (Flask), this means you can control test_run.py script remotely using a web browser.

Making Script (control.py) ready to run:

Create Virtual Environment by issuing following command:

python3 -m venv ./myenv/

(you may need to use sudo for getting enough permission and issue above command)

Use following command to activate the Virtual Environment just created

source myenv/bin/activate

To install Flask, use following command.

sudo apt install python3-flask


Configuration of Environment:

export FLASK_APP=control

then enter following command

flask run

Give following url in your web browser http://127.0.0.1:5000/check

Note: to make server accessible on net then issue following command

flask run --host=0.0.0.0

Now you can use http://yourIP:5000/ to access the web page.


ABOUT test_run.py:

test_run.py is a sample script called from controll.py , you may click on web page to Start/Stop/Monitor test_run.py

test_run.py shows current datetime and runs for 30 seconds approx.
