php artisan serve - how do I get mysql to run - php

I'm new to all this artisan stuff. When I start my php server with
$ php artisan serve
How do I get the mysql server to run?

The MySQL server is independent of Laravel. The artisan command is just an interface to Laravel which runs PHP scripts in the background.
To start your MySQL server on Linux, you will have to run something like
sudo service mysql start
For Windows, you will get access to the server via WAMP or from the installed services.

actually if you want to modify a little bit of laravel framework , you can do it like this:
open ServeCommand.php file on /vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Console/ServeCommand.php
then locate to serverCommand() function
add this command
echo shell_exec('sh your_terminal_command_to_start_mysql ');
everytime you run php artisan serve it will also execute your mysql service start command

For Windows or Mac, you will need XAMPP installed to initiate MySQL. https://www.apachefriends.org

How to execute aws cli commands with shell_exec?

Trying to execute aws cli commands with php shell_exec on local server (for tests).
I'm using xampp,
windows operating system,
Laravel and php,
I installed aws cli on windows.
Windows cmd recognizes the aws commands, but when I try to execute the aws command with shell_exec i get an error: "aws is not recognized as an internal or external command".
Tried this simple script:
$exec = shell_exec('aws --version');
$exec return null.
Appreciate any help.
if you can't run the command directly in shell_exec(), then what you can do is make a batch file with the command and place it on the root of your website. Then, just run:
<?php echo exec("script.bat"); ?>
also, make sure to put any environment variables needed and recommend to use full path for the aws executable
I solved it. It was pretty simple. It doesn't enough to restart xampp. I also had to quit xampp and re enter

How do I setup my host machine's PHP interpreter to point to the container's PHP interpreter

I would like to configure PHPStorm so that I can run Artisan commands directly from my IDE's terminal. For example php artisan key:generate. However, when I do, I receive the error 'php' is not recognized as an internal or external command.
Background:
running Windows 10 as host machine
using Docker to run my webserver (Nginx) and PHP interpreter (7.2-fpm).
I followed this tutorial.
https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-laravel-nginx-and-mysql-with-docker-compose.
One thing the tutorial didn't cover was how to set up my remote PHP CLI interpreter. For that, I followed https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/configuring-remote-interpreters.html and can make a successful connection as it picks up the correct PHP version 7.2.21 as seen in the screenshot.
After this, I restarted my Windows 10 host machine, fired up the container, opened my IDE and tried to run php -v from the terminal but hit the error again.
I know it has something to do with my PATH environment variable being set incorrectly, or not at all but I am not sure how to point it to the container's PHP interpreter. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT
For what it is worth, I know that I can exec into the container and run PHP commands from there, but thought I might be able to do it directly from my host machine by pointing to the container's interpreter.
The terminal in PHPstorm is the same as any other terminal on your computer. It doesn't automatically connect to docker to run the php -v command. If you want to run php from PHPstorm in docker you can right click the file:
Choose run:
And select your created docker interpreter as your runtime:
If the fix button doesn't show it can be configured through:
settings > Languages & Frameworks > PHP
And then clicking on the 3 dots at the end of "CLI interpreter"

Automatically run shell commands in Xampp

I am very new to using XAMPP. I have configured in my settings for XAMPP to start automatically during windows start up.
Normally in my shell in XAMPP, i do this command always
cd users/documents/myapp
users/documents/myapp: php artisan serve
Is there a way that i can make my XAMPP run this command anytime its auto starts on my computer?
PS: Apologies for my bad english and i am newbie to XAMPP and server side stuff

How can I run a php without a web server?

I would like to ask if I can run a php without having installed a web server. Do I have to use the php like CGI and run my page via command line? And if so, what are the steps that I do I have to choose through the installation of php? I mean the preferences as CGI and the components after that step?
I installed the php 5.3.3 but is seems not working, I get several message that the php5ts.dll is missing and when I put that file in my ext folder other error messages appear. Are there any configuration files or steps that I have to use?
(is php 5.3.3 suitable for doing something like this?)
If I have to have a web server installed how can I run my php code through the command line?
You should normally be able to run a php file (after a successful installation) just by running this command:
$ /path/to/php myfile.php // unix way
C:\php\php.exe myfile.php // windows way
You can read more about running PHP in CLI mode here.
It's worth adding that PHP from version 5.4 onwards is able to run a web server on its own. You can do it by running this code in a folder which you want to serve the pages from:
$ php -S localhost:8000
You can read more about running a PHP in a Web Server mode here.
For windows system you should be able to run php by following below steps:
Download php version you want to use and put it in c:\php.
append ;c:\php to your system path using cmd or gui.
call $ php -S localhost:8000 command in a folder which you want to serve the pages from.
PHP is a normal sripting language similar to bash or python or perl. So a script with shebang works, at least on linux.
Example PHP file:
#!/usr/bin/env php
<?php
echo("Hello World!\n")
?>
How to run it:
$ chmod 755 hello.php # do this only once
$ ./hello.php
You can use these kind of programs to emulate an apache web server and run PHP on your computer:
