PHP get response time and http status code same request - php

Question

I can get the HTTP status code of a URL using Curl and I can get the response time of a URL by doing something like the following...
<?php
// check responsetime for a webbserver
function pingDomain($domain){
$starttime = microtime(true);
// supress error messages with #
$file = #fsockopen($domain, 80, $errno, $errstr, 10);
$stoptime = microtime(true);
$status = 0;
if (!$file){
$status = -1; // Site is down
} else {
fclose($file);
$status = ($stoptime - $starttime) * 1000;
$status = floor($status);
}
return $status;
}
?>
However, I'm struggling to think of a way to get the HTTP status code and the response time using the same request. If this is possible to do only via curl that would be great.
Note: I don't want/need any other information from the URL as this will slow down my process.

Answer 1

Please use get_headers() function it will return you status code, refer php docs -http://php.net/manual/en/function.get-headers.php
<?php
$url = "http://www.example.com";
$header = get_headers($url);
print_r($header);
$status_code = $header[0];
echo $status_code;
?>
Output -->
