Use Symfony Process. https://symfony.com/doc/current/components/process.html

Install:

composer require symfony/process

Code:

use Symfony\Component\Process\Process;
use Symfony\Component\Process\Exception\ProcessFailedException;

$process = new Process(['python', '/path/to/your_script.py']);
$process->run();

// executes after the command finishes
if (!$process->isSuccessful()) {
    throw new ProcessFailedException($process);
}

echo $process->getOutput();
