如何从命令行正确运行php [关闭]

Question

I'm using the symfony2 framework, and I need to run "php app/console" commands frequently, however when I run "php app/console" it says

The program 'php' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:

sudo apt-get install php5-cli

this is working though

/usr/local/php7/bin/php app/console

how can I make 'php' out of '/usr/local/php7/bin/php' for the command line? I'm on linux Mint/Ubuntu

Answer 1

you can put "/usr/local/php7/bin/" to $PATH or use shell alias command with writing following line to console:

alias php=/usr/local/php7/bin/php

after that you can use "php app/console"
