How to send a keystroke to an executing script run via php via php?

Question

PHP

The point is this. I run a console application and it runs until the Q key or ctrl+C is pressed. I use the shell_exec function to run the script. I need at some point to make it so that I would send a keystroke q or ctrl + c to the running process.

Answer 1

End script? Get process PID at startup and kill

Answer 2

shell_exec("kill -9 $pid");
