Is there an easy way of seeing PHP info?

Each time I want to see the phpinfo(); I have to:

• Create a info.php file;
• Write phpinfo(); in it.
• Go to the browser and type my "thisproject.dev/info.php"

I'm on Ubuntu.

Isn't there a more practical way to see phpinfo in the browser?

From your command line you can run..

php -i

I know it's not the browser window, but you can't see the phpinfo(); contents without making the function call. Obviously, the best approach would be to have a phpinfo script in the root of your web server directory, that way you have access to it at all times via http://localhost/info.php or something similar (NOTE: don't do this in a production environment or somewhere that is publicly accessible)

EDIT: As mentioned by binaryLV, its quite common to have two versions of a php.ini per installation. One for the command line interface (CLI) and the other for the web server interface. If you want to see phpinfo output for your web server make sure you specify the ini file path, for example...

php -c /etc/php/apache2/php.ini -i

From the CLI the best way is to use grep like:

php -i | grep libxml

---

If you have php installed on your local machine try:

$ php -a
Interactive shell

php > phpinfo();

---

From the CLI:

php -r 'phpinfo();'

---

Use the command line.

touch /var/www/project1/html/phpinfo.php && echo '<?php phpinfo(); ?>' >> /var/www/project1/html/phpinfo.php && firefox --url localhost/project1/phpinfo.php

Something like that? Idk!

You can use this command to print phpinfo to file .txt:

touch phpinfo.txt && php -i >> phpinfo.txt && sudo gedit phpinfo.txt

Explain about that code:

1. Create new file:

touch phpinfo.txt

2. Print phpinfo() to file .txt:

php -i >> phpinfo.txt

3. Open file:

sudo gedit phpinfo.txt

Hope it's help. Thanks.

If you are using WAMP then type the following in the browser
http://localhost/?phpinfo=-1, you will get the phpinfo page.

phpinfo() from localhost

You can also click the localhost icon in the wamp menu from the systray and then find the phpinfo page. WAMP localhost from WAMP Menu
