phpinfo

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7)

phpinfo — Outputs information about PHP's configuration

Description

bool phpinfo ([ int $what = INFO_ALL ] )

Outputs a large amount of information about the current state of PHP. This includes information about PHP compilation options and extensions, the PHP version, server information and environment (if compiled as a module), the PHP environment, OS version information, paths, master and local values of configuration options, HTTP headers, and the PHP License.

Because every system is setup differently, phpinfo() is commonly used to check configuration settings and for available predefined variables on a given system.

phpinfo() is also a valuable debugging tool as it contains all EGPCS (Environment, GET, POST, Cookie, Server) data.

Parameters

what

The output may be customized by passing one or more of the following constants bitwise values summed together in the optional what parameter. One can also combine the respective constants or bitwise values together with the or operator.

Changelog

Version Description
5.5.0 Logo GUIDs were replaced with data URIs, and so turning off expose_php now has no effect on the result of phpinfo(). Credits are also now embedded within the output itself instead of linked.
5.2.2 The "Loaded Configuration File" information was added, when before only "Configuration File (php.ini) Path" existed.

Examples

Example #1 phpinfo() Example

<?php

// Show all information, defaults to INFO_ALL
phpinfo();

// Show just the module information.
// phpinfo(8) yields identical results.
phpinfo(INFO_MODULES);

?>

Notes

Note:

In versions of PHP before 5.5, parts of the information displayed are disabled when the expose_php configuration setting is set to off. This includes the PHP and Zend logos, and the credits.

Note:

phpinfo() outputs plain text instead of HTML when using the CLI mode.
