find out which files are called

[yellowrabbit]

Hello

 

I have a php website. I am trying to trace (find out) which files are called when a page is displayed.

 

For example on certain pages that get displayed it may call up to 6-7 files. I would like to know the name of the files and the order they are called.

 

As through out the code there is a lot of

 

include_once("global/global.libs.php");

 

Is there any may to easily trace this without having to go through page by page on the code and try to figure out what is happening.

 

Essentially I just want the file name eg global/global.libs.php logged somewhere

 

Thanks in advance

$included_files = get_included_files();

 

foreach ($included_files as $filename) {

    echo "$filename\n";

}

Thank you for the quick reply.

 

Would I just include this peice of code  at the TOP of the main file which is called.

Put that in the page where you want to see the included pages. It will then print there names for you. My guess is that if you put that at the top of the page it would print them in order of top to bottom.

get_included_files only gets the actual files that have been included/required at the time it is called. You would need to use it in a register_shutdown_function to get all the actual included/required files for any particular page request.

I am not actually sure how I use the register_shutdown_function()  with get_included_files()

 

Also where do I place this code.

 

Can you please explain.

function shutdown()

{

$included_files = get_included_files();

 

foreach ($included_files as $filename)

{

    echo "$filename\n";

}

}

 

register_shutdown_function('shutdown');

 

and thats how its done the function will only run once the page pas finished all other functions its queued at the end of the process tree in php
