我如何知道某个项目是用哪个 CakePHP 版本制作的？

Question

Is it possible to know the version of CakePHP used to generate a project with only the app code available?

---

My problem:

I downloaded a project made with CakePHP, and I really can't tell which Cake version to use. The files say, eg @version $Revision: 8004 $ , but this is different in some files. Should I assume that the highest revision (8004) is the correct one to use?

It seems to be from around 2008, so I guess it's a 1.x version.

PD: Here is the code to the project.

Answer 1

I have found that the version, as of CakePHP 2.3.0, is held within a static file under the root Cake lib.

bash #: cat $CAKE_ROOT/lib/Cake/VERSION.txt

Answer 2

编辑core.php，添加到顶部：

echo Configure::version();

Answer 3

For cakephp 3.x find \\vendor\\cakephp\\cakephp\\VERSION.txt

3.3.2

Answer 4

Simple way : Just search for VERSION.txt file. Open It to check the version.

Path for version.txt

For cakephp 1.* : cake/VERSION.txt

For cakephp 2.* : lib/Cake/ VERSION.txt

For cakephp 3. & 4.* : vendor/cakephp/cakephp/ VERSION.txt

Answer 5

I'm certain this is for CakePHP 1.2.x branch, and not the CakePHP 1.3.x branch.

You can download a 1.2.x branch from here .

The reason I think it's 1.2 is that all the comment headers are Copyright 2005-2008 , and only the 1.2.x branch uses that date range. Everything in the 1.3.x branch is Copyright 2005-2010 or newer.

Answer 6

we can check through following path

Path=root/lib/cake/VERSION.txt

Open version.txt

last line show the version of cakephp

Answer 7

On the wellcome page the version is written, we dont need any command to check the version. If still it a problem, you somehow dont find the wellcome page. you can use

echo Configure::version();

Answer 8

This is the BEST way to get it on run time

Configure::version()

3.x docs

2.x docs

The other way is to look for VERSION.txt

2.x lib/Cake/VERSION.txt

3.x vendor/cakephp/cakephp/VERSION.txt

Answer 9

It's like not possible (without going through all the version changes, checking file/folder structures, comments...etc).

AND, it's for good reason IMO.

When I start an app, I build it in the latest release. But, even by the time it goes public, I'm usually on a new release of CakePHP, and will continue to update it as they come out. My APP files don't change at all (other than the requested changes per release notes - if any). Only the cakephp/lib directory changes (and unfortunately, you don't have that).

If you're lucky, and the previous developer keeps their Cake versions in separate folders instead of overwriting, then you might find the version number in your webroot/index.php in the CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH line, but in your case, it's not there.

If you do have the actual Cake files (I know you don't, but other people might), then you can look in the cake/VERSION.txt file for the version you're using.

Answer 10

在 Cake 3x 的项目目录中，输入bin\\cake version (windows) 或bin/cake version (osx/linux)。

Answer 11

Also for Linux console you can check your CakePHP version like this.
Change example.com with your domain name.

# grep ^[^\/] /var/www/vhosts/example.com/httpdocs/lib/Cake/VERSION.txt

Answer 12

在应用根目录下的 cake 3.0 >>> cat vendor/cakephp/cakephp/VERSION.txt

Answer 13

For Cakephp3, open command line and go to your Project App directory and type bin/cake ,it will show you something like this *

Welcome to CakePHP v3.3.5 Console

Which is your current cakephp Version.

Answer 14

Any PHP Framework using composer having version details in composer.json file
