require_once
require_once
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7)
The require_once statement is identical to require except PHP will check if the file has already been included, and if so, not include (require) it again.
See the include_once documentation for information about the _once behaviour, and how it differs from its non _once siblings.
