Question

When i wast working under cakephp 1.3 i have this method to know if i was in localhost or production server.

function isHostServer() {
    $host = Configure::read('Site.host');
    return (strpos($this->Session->host, $host) !== FALSE);
}

Now i have migrated to cakephp 2.x but Cookie and Session Object are not delivering my host.
Is there a solution?

In php, you are always able to look at $_SERVER array object. In cakephp just look use the env() global method for example in this case: env(‘SERVER_NAME’)
