How to generate entity classes from yaml files in doctrine 2 - php

Question

I am following this link to generate entities from yaml files.
Doctrine 2 ORM 2 documentation
I have installed doctrine2 using composer, using following command on CMD
D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.16>php.exe "D:\jsingh7 stuff\PHP\composer.phar"
install
Below is the directory structure that the composer has made in my
D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.16\vendor
I have very less knowledge about command prompt so facing issue in understanding that why the command in not working.
the command I am using is
C:\Users\jsingh7>php vendor/bin/doctrine orm:generate-entities --help
it shows - Could not open input file: vendor/bin/doctrine
Any guidance will be appreciated!
Thanks.

Answer 1

From your screenshots it looks like you are trying to find and run a doctrine script located in C:\Users\jsingh7\vendor\bin when it is actually installed in D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.16\vendor\bin.
Try:
C:\Users\jsingh7> php D:\wamp\bin\php\php5.4.16\vendor\bin\doctrine orm:generate-entities --help
Or perhaps better yet, install doctrine locally for your project (e.g. "myproject"):
Create a C:\Users\jsingh7\myproject\composer.json with the following contents:
{
"require": {
"doctrine/orm": "*"
}
}
Run the "composer install" command:
C:\Users\jsingh7\myproject> composer install
You should now be able to run the doctrine script locally:
C:\Users\jsingh7\myproject> php vendor/bin/doctrine orm:generate-entities --help
