    Parameter-Liste

    categorize

    Causing this function to return a multi-dimensional array with categories in the keys of the first dimension and constants and their values in the second dimension.

    <?php
    define    ("MY_CONSTANT", 1);
    print_r(get_defined_constants(true));
    ?>

    Rückgabewerte

    Returns an array of constant name => constant value array, optionally groupped by extension name registering the constant.

    Add this method to your class definition if you want an array of class constants (get_defined_constants doesn't work with class constants as Peter P said above):

    <?php
    public function get_class_constants()
    {
    $reflect = new ReflectionClass(get_class($this));
    return     $reflect->getConstants());
    }
    ?>

    You could also override stdObject with it so that all your classes have this method

    If you want to access directly on one category, just use:

    <?php

    print_r    (get_defined_constants(true)['Core']);

    ?>

    you can replace 'Core' by the category you wish (e.g. user):

    <?php

    print_r    (get_defined_constants(true)['user']);

    ?>

    Warning: only use this on development side

    If you want to filter through and return only the prefix for your constants (i.e. you have constants with a naming scheme), then you can use this quick little function. It comes in handy for debugging.

    <?php
    function returnConstants ($prefix) {
    foreach (    get_defined_constants() as $key=>$value)
    if (    substr($key,0,strlen($prefix))==$prefix) $dump[$key] = $value;
    if(empty(    $dump)) { return "Error: No Constants found with prefix '".$prefix."'"; }
    else { return     $dump; }
    }
    ?>

    Example:

    <?php
    define    ("SITENAME_OPTION_ONE",true);
    define("SITENAME_OPTION_TWO",false);
    define("SITENAME_URL","foo");

    print_r(returnConstants("SITENAME_OPTION"));
    ?>

    Will return:

    Array
    (
    [SITENAME_OPTIONONE] => 1
    [SITENAME_OPTIONTWO] =>
    )

    If you want to create a static method that you can copy and paste into each class you have constants created, you can use:

    <php
    public static function get_class_constants(): array
    {
    $reflect = new ReflectionClass(self::class);

    return $reflect->getConstants();
    }
    ?>
