[DISCUSSION] Json version of PHP Info

Hi, Internals! I want to have a unified function phpinfo() for any environment. Currently phpinfo works different in CLI and SAPI modes: - SAPI mode enforces the function print HTML tags - CLI mode enforces the function print text as is Here is implementation of the function: https://github.com/xepozz/php-src/blob/5dd9b0dcef229c55f67044537b076c6e4320f28c/ext/standard/info.c#L760 So I'd like to create a separate function phpinfo_json() which will dump pretty much the same text as a json structure. Use-case as simple as absurd: - PHP/php -S serves the content as a SAPI mode - RoadRunner/Queues/Workers which run PHP scripts as php index.php run it as CLI mode It's not convenient to see CLI-like output when you run a web server. It's not possible to fetch some info from the function output User should write parsers for both function variations: SAPI and CLI to parse something There is no need to use the output buffers to get the information. New function output could be an array-like structure or a json string. It's open to discuss. I'm okay with any or even both with a flag "$asArray" -- Best regards, Dmitrii Derepko. @xepozz
