PEAR Manager : Version of PEAR Package

Filed under: PHP / PEAR

As a continuation of the PEAR Manager Post, I’ve written this small code to retreive version from PEAR Package. I just parsed the header comment, I’ll try to finish an alpha version of the Pear Manager so we could open a discussion about it


/**

* PearVersion : Return version of a PEAR package

*

* @param string $package	The package name

* @param string $path		Path to pear

* @author 		Hatem 

* @return string $version

*/

function PearVersion($package,$path = “c:/php4/PEAR/”) {
	$data = implode(”,@file($pear.$package.”.php”));
	preg_match(”|$package(.php)?,v (.*) (.*)n|U”,$data,$matches);
	$version = $matches[2];
	return $version;

}
