PHP [Linux Servers] Operating System and Processor Installed

Post by Hustle »

Hi,

Below are a few lines of PHP code I've used before on linux servers and thought I should share on here :D , a small contribution to the BetterPHP Community but every contribution however big or small helps :D.

How to find out the processor that's installed in a linux server.
[syntax=php]<?php
$proc = (explode(":",shell_exec("cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep \"model name\"")));
echo "<b>Processor:</b>$proc[1]";
?>[/syntax]Result on my local linux server:
Processor: AMD Athlon(tm) II P320 Dual-Core Processor


How to find out the operating system that's installed on a linux server.
[syntax=php]<?php
$serveros = (explode(":",shell_exec("lsb_release -d")));
echo "<b>Operating System:</b>$serveros[1]";
?>[/syntax]Result on my local linux server:
Operating System: Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS


Enjoy :D , I hope this will be useful to others.

[syntax=text]lsb_release -d[/syntax]

Didn't know about that !

Thanks for sharing :)

P.S. I think that the smaller contributions in the code section will be more useful ;)

Worth noting:

[syntax=text]cat /proc/meminfo | grep "MemTotal"[/syntax] shows the memory info

[syntax=text]time command[/syntax] shows how long a command takes :)
I don't like to brag, but I wasn't circumcised. I was circumnavigated. ;)
