Drush support for Drupal 7 ended back with version 8 of Drush. Also, Composer has become the defacto way to install anything for Drupal, including Drush.
If you are one of those old-school people who hate to load or use a non-intuitive resource-hog like Composer on your system and you just want to type an install command and be done, then this is how to do it for Drush 8.
wget https://github.com/drush-ops/drush/releases/download/8.subver.release/drush.phar
where:
- subver
- Sub-version number, perhaps 4
- release
- Release number, perhaps 8
For example,
wget https://github.com/drush-ops/drush/releases/download/8.4.10/drush.phar -O drush-8.4.10.phar
In Linux, it might make sense to put Drush versions in a directory called /usr/local/etc/drush/
and then put a symlink to it called drush
in /usr/local/sbin/
