Dynamically Displaying the Twitter Bootstrap Version in a CakePHP Page

This is the CakePHP Code…

Blog History

This is the CakePHP Code that I embed in a page to display the current version of Bootstrap CSS that is in use on the website.

Assuming that JQuery is included somewhere on the page all that is required is a target div and then a snippet of javascript created using CakePHP scriptStart scriptEnd feature which will allow dynamic specification of the path to bootstrap.min.css and javascript to fetch and parse for the v4.3.1 or which ever version string it is

 <tr>
   <th>Twitter Bootstrap Version</th>
        <td>
          <div id="twbs_version"></div>
            <?php
                $this->Html->scriptStart(['block' => 'from_view']);
                    echo '$(function () {' .
                    '$.get("' . $this->Url->css('bootstrap.min.css') . 
                    '", function (data) {' .
                    'var version = data.match(/v[.\d]+[.\d]/);' .
                    '$("#twbs_version").html(version); }); });';
                $this->Html->scriptEnd();
            ?>
    </td>
</tr>

Here is the javascript that is output by CakePHP to a block named 'from_view' see the Layout.ctp

<script>
    $(function () { 
        $.get(
            "/css/bootstrap.min.css", 
            function (data) {
                var version = data.match(/v[.\d]+[.\d]/);
                $("#twbs_version").html(version); 
            }
        );
    });
</script>
