How to install Drush 8 on Windows 10?

Question

I am currently running Drush 7 and its working fine for D7.

But I want to run it for D8 site. I have also seen many post where it is mentioned that Drush 7 support D8 but its not true.

So i am trying to install Drush 8.

Try to run below command

composer global require drush/drush:8.*

Or

composer require drush/drush:dev-master

./composer.json has been created Loading composer repositories with package information Updating dependencies (including require-dev) Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

Problem 1 - Installation request for drush/drush dev-master -> satisfiable by drush/drush[dev-master]. - drush/drush dev-master requires consolidation/robo dev-master -> satisfiable by consolidation/robo[dev-master] but these conflict with your requirements o r minimum-stability. Installation failed, deleting ./composer.json.

But unable to get success. Any suggestion how achieve this?

Answer 1

Finally...

using this command

 composer global require drush/drush:8.*

But i need to refer few steps before running this command.

  composer.json  # Removed the line containing drush like below

{
"require": {
"drush/drush": "7.*"
}
}

composer global update
composer global require drush/drush:8.*
