Execute symfony command

Question

I have a command inside my command folder under my bundle folder. I'm trying to execute it using the windows command prompt or using netbeans. The documentation says to use the bin/console. But I have no idea what is that or how to use it. Please help.

php bin/console assuming you have a path set to your php executable — Cerad

depends on which version of symfony you are using. If its > 3.0 than it is php bin/console otherwise it is php app/console — Puya Sarmidani

in Symfony2, the console is located at /app/console

so if you cd to your application home directory, then run php app/console <name of command>

in the Command class, the name is set:

protected function configure()
{
    // to run the console command, use 'php app/console forex:update'
    $this->setName('forex:update')
         ->setDescription('Update Foreign Exchange Rates');
}

in the example above, the command to run it (from the application home directory is:

php app/console forex:update

You may also need to add the php to your PATH, or replace php with the path to your php executable.
