get_defined_constantsReturns an associative array with the names of all the constants and their values

Descrição

get_defined_constants(bool $categorize = false): array

Returns the names and values of all the constants currently defined. This includes those created by extensions as well as those created with the define() function.

Parâmetros

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));
?>

O exemplo acima produzirá algo semelhante a:

Array
(
    [Core] => Array
        (
            [E_ERROR] => 1
            [E_WARNING] => 2
            [E_PARSE] => 4

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] =>
)
