Writing a function in php
I'm using the following code
echo 'Curl: ', function_exists('curl_version') ? 'Enabled' : 'Disabled';
this can get it enabled or disabled
but I would like to make as function say function name is _iscurl
then I can call it as following any where in my website code
if (_iscurl()){
echo "this is enabled"; // will do an action
}else{
echo "this is disabled"; // will do another action
}
almost same as my previous question check if allow_url_fopen is enabled or not
This question is related to
php
<?php
// Script to test if the CURL extension is installed on this server
// Define function to test
function _is_curl_installed() {
if (in_array ('curl', get_loaded_extensions())) {
return true;
}
else {
return false;
}
}
// Ouput text to user based on test
if (_is_curl_installed()) {
echo "cURL is <span style=\"color:blue\">installed</span> on this server";
} else {
echo "cURL is NOT <span style=\"color:red\">installed</span> on this server";
}
?>
or a simple one -
<?
phpinfo();
?>
Just search for curl
You can always create a new page and use phpinfo()
. Scroll down to the curl section and see if it is enabled.
you can check by putting these code in php file.
<?php
if(in_array ('curl', get_loaded_extensions())) {
echo "CURL is available on your web server";
}
else{
echo "CURL is not available on your web server";
}
OR
var_dump(extension_loaded('curl'));
Its always better to go for a generic reusable function in your project which returns whether the extension loaded. You can use the following function to check -
function isExtensionLoaded($extension_name){
return extension_loaded($extension_name);
}
Usage
echo isExtensionLoaded('curl');
echo isExtensionLoaded('gd');
var_dump(extension_loaded('curl'));
Hope this helps.
<?php
function _iscurl() {
return function_exists('curl_version');
}
?>
