Query PHP configuration programmatically or browse it in a modern UI with dark mode, instant search, and click-to-copy. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP 8.3+ - `ext-dom` Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require stechstudio/phpinfo ``` Quickstart ---------- [](#quickstart) The simplest way to use this package is the global `prettyphpinfo()` function — a drop-in replacement for `phpinfo()`: ``` prettyphpinfo(); ``` That's it. You'll get a pretty, searchable, dark-mode-ready page instead of the default `phpinfo()` output. > If you're not using a framework with Composer autoloading, you'll need to add `require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';` first.

Name is case-insensitive. $info->hasModule('redis'); // true // Check to see if a specific configuration key is present. $info->hasConfig('ICU version'); // true // Retrieve the value for a specific configuration key. If there is both // a local and master value, the local is returned by default. $info->config('max_file_uploads'); // "20" // Pass 'master' to get the php.ini default instead of the effective local value. $info->config('max_file_uploads', 'master'); // "100" $info->config('BCMath support', 'master'); // null // Convenience methods for common lookups $info->os(); // "Linux" $info->hostname(); // "my-server" ``` Iterating over data structure ----------------------------- [](#iterating-over-data-structure) You can iterate over the full data structure to loop over your `phpinfo()` configuration. All lists (`modules()`, `groups()`, `configs()`) return iterable `Items` objects with `filter()`, `map()`, `first()`, `each()`, `count()`, and more. ``` // Loop over defined modules foreach($info->modules() as $module) { $module->name(); // "session" // Configs are grouped the same way phpinfo() groups them by table foreach($module->groups() as $group) { $group->headings(); // ["Directive", "Local Value", "Master Value"] foreach($group->configs() as $config) { $config->name(); // "session.gc_maxlifetime" $config->localValue(); // "1440" $config->hasMasterValue(); // true $config->masterValue(); // "28800" } } } ``` The data structure has four levels: 1. `PhpInfo` containing `modules()` 2. Modules with `name()`, containing `groups()` 3. Groups containing `configs()` and optionally `headings()` 4. Configs with `name()`, `value()`/`localValue()`, and optionally `masterValue()` You can also access configs directly from the Module and PhpInfo levels: ``` // Flatten grouped configs for a single module $info->module('session')->configs(); // Flatten ALL configs across all modules $info->configs(); ``` ### Modules and Groups [](#modules-and-groups) Look up a specific module and inspect it directly: ``` // Case-insensitive lookup. Returns null if not found. $module = $info->module('zend opcache'); // Retrieve the name as displayed in phpinfo() $module->name(); // "Zend OPcache" // Flatten all configs into one collection $module->configs()->count(); // 59 // Query a specific config from this module $module->config('Max keys'); // "16229" $module->config('opcache.enable_file_override', 'master'); // "Off" // Access individual groups $group = $info->module('session')->groups()->first(); ``` ### Simple example [](#simple-example) ``` foreach ($info->modules() as $module) { echo '' . $module->name() . ''; echo ''; foreach($module->configs() as $config) { echo ''; echo $config->name() . ': ' . $config->value(); if($config->hasMasterValue()) { echo ' (master: ' . $config->masterValue() . ')'; } echo ''; } echo ''; } ``` Why not just use `ini_get()` or `extension_loaded()`? ----------------------------------------------------- [](#why-not-just-use-ini_get-or-extension_loaded) PHP configuration is spread across a bunch of different functions, each with a narrow scope: - `ini_get()` returns a single INI value, and only the local (effective) value - `extension_loaded()` tells you if an extension is loaded, but nothing about its configuration - `get_loaded_extensions()` gives you a list of names with no details - `phpversion()` and `php_uname()` each return one thing All of these require you to know exactly what you're looking for ahead of time. There's no way to discover what's available, iterate over all configuration, or search across modules. Even if you combine all of them, there are things they simply can't tell you. The configure command PHP was compiled with, Zend extension details, stream wrappers, registered filters, and various per-extension metadata are only available through `phpinfo()`. `phpinfo()` is the only function that gives you everything in one place. The problem is it dumps raw HTML (or plain text in CLI) with no API to work with. This package parses that complete `phpinfo()` output and gives you: - Iterate over all modules and configs without knowing what's installed - Get both local and master values (`ini_get()` only returns the effective local value) - Access phpinfo()-only data like compile options, stream wrappers, and registered filters - One consistent API instead of juggling five different functions with different return types ### Health Score 52 — FairBetter than 96% of packages Maintenance82 Actively maintained with recent releases Popularity43 Moderate usage in the ecosystem Community15 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity54 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 98.2% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
