README

For more information about the os-release standard, see https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/os-release.html

This library will attempt to read and parse the two standard os-release information files, in order of precedence:

1. /etc/os-release
2. /usr/lib/os-release

If no file exists, or if the file cannot be read, an OsReleaseException will be thrown.

Installation

To install, use composer:

composer require compwright/php-os-release

Usage

use CompWright\PhpOsRelease\OsReleaseReader;

$reader = new OsReleaseReader();
$osRelease = $reader();

// Access via property or array access
$version = $osRelease->version;

// or:
$version = $osRelease['VERSION'];

Testing

$ make test
