In PHP how to detect the execution is from CLI mode or through browser

0 votes
I have a common script which Im including in my PHPcron files and the files which are accessing through the browser. Some part of the code, I need only for non cron files.

 How can I detect whether the execution is from CLI or through browser (I know it can be done by passing some arguments with the cron files but I dont have access to crontab). Is there any other way ?

Hello @kartik,

Use the php_sapi_name() function.

if (php_sapi_name() == "cli") {
    // In cli-mode
} else {
    // Not in cli-mode
}

Hope it helps!!

Thank You!!
