Is it possible to run windows shell commands from within wappler php

Wappler General Need Help

I know that PHP allows you to execute windows shell commands. Can I do that with Wappler?

I’m trying to run a windows command line driven program to scan a document (NAPS2.console). If I can execute the command from a Wappler page, then I can do what I want.

Thanks,
Rick

I have no idea if this can be done or not, but have you tried adding your command as a static attribute?

Hi Rick,

It isn’t really clear to me what you are trying to achieve. Do you want to be able to scan a document from you live website or from within Wappler?

Both is actually not possible.

As for scanning from your website. You usually add a file upload possibility that people just upload their doc to - no need for direct scan as they already have local scanning software.
