The following steps are required for executing PHP script using Command Line-

1.Create a PHP file and you can follow the following one:
file_name.php, pr1.php

2.Open command prompt to change the directory into the folder containing the PHP files you created.

3.Enter the following command into command prompt to run the script file which you created and as an example the following can be followed based on the name of the file which is used here as example:

We can execute the php script on command line
php filename.

You can easily parse command line arguments into the $_GET variable by using the parse_str() function.

<?php
parse_str(implode('&', array_slice($argv, 1)), $_GET);

?>
