phpinfo - Outputs information about PHP's configuration

SYNOPSIS

       bool phpinfo ([int  $what = INFO_ALL])

DESCRIPTION

	Outputs  a  large amount of information about the current state of PHP. This includes information about PHP compilation options and exten-
       sions, 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(3) is commonly used to check configuration settings and for available predefined vari-
       ables on a given system.

       phpinfo(3) is also a valuable debugging tool as it contains all EGPCS (Environment, GET, POST, Cookie, Server) data.

PARAMETERS

	      o $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.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      phpinfo(3) 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(3) outputs plain text instead of HTML when using the CLI mode.
