How to run php.exe from windows console?

Question

PHP

No matter how I tried to write .bat, I can’t figure out how to run php even in a simple Windows console.

In Linux, everything is simple: I launch the terminal in the folder and write ./php -v
everything works. Windows is complete trash. Please tell me how to run php using .bat file

Answer 1

Apparently you have a broken php.
just downloaded and run:

alternatively try Bamcompile , it will turn your .php script into an executable .exe file

Answer 2

the path to php.exe must be added to the PATH
batch file:

@echo off
@setlocal
set SCRIPT_PATH=%~dp0
php.exe --f "%SCRIPT_PATH%script.php" %*
@endlocal

if php.exe is not specified in PATH, then in the batch file you specify the absolute path to php.exe
