How can I Encrypt/Decrypt DES?

Question

PHP

Here is the encryption in Python(3):

from Crypto.Cipher import DES

key = b'abcdefgh'

def pad(text):
    while len(text) % 8 != 0:
        text += b' '
    return text

des = DES.new(key, DES.MODE_ECB)
text = b'Python rocks!'
padded_text = pad(text)

encrypted_text = des.encrypt(padded_text)
print(encrypted_text)
# b'>\xfc\x1f\x16x\x87\xb2\x93\x0e\xfcH\x02\xd59VQ'

How can I decrypt this in PHP and how can I also encrypt?
Thanks
