How To Check Codeigniter Version?


In this tutorial, we'll see how to check Codeigniter version in project you are using. Check Version is easy but would be a challenge for someone getting started with Codeigniter framework.

I was working other projects in Codeigniter. Codeigniter looks like an earlier release but I'm not sure about the exact version of Codeigniter the application runs. So I started digging out and found the answers - turn out to be simple like I presumed. And I wish to share here the way I used to find Codeigniter version for your reference.

Finding Codeigniter Version:

Method 1:

Just go to 'system' > 'core' > 'CodeIgniter.php' and look for the lines,

/**
 * CodeIgniter Version
 *
 * @var    string
 *
 */
    define('CI_VERSION', '3.0.0');

Here it is CodeIgniter 3 check version in a project.

Method 2:

Another method to check in Codeigniter version, you can echo the constant value 'CI_VERSION' somewhere in Codeigniter controller/view file.

<?php
    echo CI_VERSION;
?>

And that should print CodeIgniter version. Like you can easily find Codeigniter version in yours project.


I hope it can help you...
