How do I install/setup Drupal Console on Windows 7? In the video by the author, the environment used is Linux.
I tried to install it on Windows 7, but I wasn't able to use it to generate a module code.

I have no idea what your question is. I have no idea what "Drupal 8 console" is. If you want run a server and drupal on windows 7, the easiest way might be to install "wampsever", add the drupal files to the www directory. That is how I have been doing it the past few years, until I started running a virtual machine.2pha– 2pha2014-12-26 09:35:31 +00:00Commented Dec 26, 2014 at 9:35

You can download the drupal console either using Git Bash
$curl https://drupalconsole.com/installer -L -o drupal
Or using windows command prompt
c:\>php -r "readfile('https://drupalconsole.com/installer');" > drupal
After downloading this file, place it beside php.exe file within your php folder (not project folder), restart your terminal/cmd-prompt and type
$drupal
to get started.
Besides downloading Drupal Console .phar file, you can also install Drupal Console using composer on windows.
First Download and install composer in your system.
Then on your windows command prompt or git terminal
$composer global require drupal/console:@stable

Create a file called drupal.bat
@php "%~dp0drupal.phar" %*

Here's the full list of steps I took:
- php -r "readfile('https://drupalconsole.com/installer');" > drupal.phar
- added installation location to the global PATH
- created a drupal.bat file in the same directory as drupal.phar. drupal.bat contains:
@php "%~dp0drupal.phar" %*
Now you can call >drupal from any location. I would upvote @Nate's answer, but this is a new account.

you can install drupal console using composer
open the command line on windows then go to :
cd /path/to/drupal8.dev

composer require drupal/console:~1.0 --prefer-dist --optimize-autoloader
after that you installed drupal console you can use it from drupal root directory where composer.json exist as follow:
vendor/bin/drupal <the_command>
you should replace <the_command> with one of the drupal console commands. you can see complete list of the commands here: drupal console commands

- Find a php.exe
- Add this path to the environnement variable path
from terminal run
php -r "readfile('https://drupalconsole.com/installer');" > drupal.phari then use php-storm IDE :
file/settings/command line
- add tool based on symfony console
- fill php path and drupal.phar path
- console is now set
tools/run command
drupal list
Comments
if you have php and composer all setup make sure you're in your drupal root folder..open powershell (anyother cli) and do '
composer require drupal/console
'after this add.
'C:\<path to your drupalwebsite root folder>\vendor\bin'
to your paths Environment variables
and you have composer installed: Remember to install and add composer to path variables for every local drupal installation.
