php-symfony-consoleHow to use the Symfony console in PHP?

The Symfony Console is a powerful command line interface (CLI) for PHP applications. It allows developers to create and run commands from the command line.

To use the Symfony Console in PHP, you need to install the Symfony Console component. This can be done using Composer:

composer require symfony/console

Once the component is installed, you can create a new console application by creating a new class that extends the Symfony\Component\Console\Application class. This class will contain all of the commands that you want to run from the command line.

You can then register each command with the application using the add() method. Each command is an instance of the Symfony\Component\Console\Command\Command class.

Finally, you can run the application by calling the run() method. This will parse the command line arguments and execute the appropriate command.
