I was asking myself if it is possible to check php files for required extensions like php-gd or php-xml. I'd like to identify all prerequisites to run a certain script.
I hope anyone can help.
Thanks in advance.

You can use extension_loaded
:
if(extension_loaded('gd'))
{
echo 'GD Library found';
}
Alternatively, you can use get_loaded_extensions()
, which will return an array.
For this solution I would have to know which extension is required and then can check if it is loaded, right? I'd like to do it the other way around. I don't know which extensions are required to run the code and that's what I like to find out so I can install them.
You cannot achieve that.
