php系统函数提供异常输出

Question

my php code

$last_line = system('service airtime-media-monitor status');
echo $last_line;

my browser displays

and this is how the command actually displays this

AIRTIME_STATUS_URL             = http://localhost:80/api/status/format/json/api_key/%%api_key%%

Question : so what is the problem with the system function, and where is the rest of the values coming from as i am expecting the web browser to echo as shown by my commnad, and how do I fix it

PS: note I ran the PHP page and the command a few seconds apart so the values are a little off

Answer 1

Those are ascii color codes, the service doesn't seem to detect if the calling terminal supports them or not. You can try to get rid of them with echo. You can try sed snippets like these.
