I have a problem, is this possible to run the bash command from PHP level?

Answer 1

A lot of functions exist, allowing you to have the precision level you want.

The only way to choose is to read the doc for these functions.

I post you some links to read :

http://php.net/manual/en/function.popen.php

http://php.net/manual/en/function.shell-exec.php

If you need to execute a command from php you can do it using the native function system() or exec(). For example if you would like execute bash command uname -a, with system call:

$output = system("uname -a", $status);

second argument is optionally; if it's present, return the status of the executed command. For more details i suggest you to take a look to follow php man pages
