Multi platform path in php

I have a path in php, that looks like this:

$command = 'cd ' . dirname(__FILE__) . '/../src/python && python3 preview.py'

On my Ubuntu machine that creates a command that look like this and can be executed:

cd /var/www/html/project/../src/python && python3 preview.py

However, if I run the same script on my windows machine, the path looks like this:

cd C:\Projects\project/../src/python && python3 preview.py

Is there a way to make it so it can be called on both platforms equally? I found this but it does not seem to work. Make a path work both on linux and Windows

Any hint appreciated

You can try: `DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR` – AbraCadaver Mar 10 '17 at 19:00

Many do `define('DS', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);` and then just use `DS` – AbraCadaver Mar 10 '17 at 19:05
Any returned error? Why not `python3 /path/to/script.py` instead of running two comands? – frz3993 Mar 10 '17 at 19:15
