Merge arrays in laravel including keys - php

Question

I have 2 arrays and I want to merge them. (I can merge them) but I also need to include their unique keys in merged results and that part I cannot achieve.
sample
$prices = [
['112802' => "500000"],
['113041' => "1000000"],
];
$notes = [
['112802' => "note 2"],
['113041' => "note 1"],
];
$collection = collect($prices);
$zipped = $collection->zip($notes);
$zipped->toArray();
Unique keys are 112802 and 113041.
When I merge my array all I get is this:
[
[
"1000000",
"note 1"
],
[
"500000",
"note 2"
]
]
What I'm looking for is like this:
[
[
"id" => "112802",
"price" => "500000",
"note" => "note 2",
],
[
"id" => "113041",
"price" => "1000000",
"note" => "note 1",
]
}]
any suggestion?

This does what you want with the data you provide.
NOTE it will only work if your 2 arrays are the same size and the the keys are in the same order.
If this data comes from a database, it is likely it could have been produced in the format you actually wanted rather than having to fiddle with the data post fetch.
$prices = [
['112802' => "500000"],
['113041' => "1000000"],
];
$notes = [
['112802' => "note 2"],
['113041' => "note 1"],
];
$new = [];
foreach ($prices as $i=>$pr){
$k = key($pr);
$new[] = [ 'id' => $k,
'price' => $pr[$k],
'note' => $notes[$i][$k] ];
}
print_r($new);
RESULT
Array
(
[0] => Array (
[id] => 112802
[price] => 500000
[note] => note 2
)
[1] => Array (
[id] => 113041
[price] => 1000000
[note] => note 1
)
)

Here's another solution using some of Laravel's Collection methods.
It's not the most elegant, but it can be a starting point for you.
$prices = collect([
['112802' => "500000"],
['113041' => "1000000"],
])->mapWithKeys(function($item) {
// This assumes that the key will always be the ID and the first element is the price.
// Everythng else for each element will be ignored.
$id = array_keys($item)[0];
return [$id => ["id" => $id, "price" => reset($item)]];
});
$notes = collect([
['112802' => "note 2"],
['113041' => "note 1"],
])->mapWithKeys(function($item) {
$id = array_keys($item)[0];
return [$id => ["id" => $id, "note" => reset($item)]];
});
$result = $prices->zip($notes)->map(function ($item) {
// Feel free to call `toArray()` here if you don't want a Collection.
return collect($item)->mapWithKeys(function ($a) { return $a; });
});
Below is the $result (called using dd()).
Illuminate\Support\Collection {#1886 ▼
#items: array:2 [▼
0 => Illuminate\Support\Collection {#1888 ▼
#items: array:3 [▼
"id" => 112802
"price" => "500000"
"note" => "note 2"
]
}
1 => Illuminate\Support\Collection {#1889 ▼
#items: array:3 [▼
"id" => 113041
"price" => "1000000"
"note" => "note 1"
]
}
]
}
It's achieved by extracting the ID so that the zip can join there, but then we need a little hack with the map and mapWithKeys in the $result.
That's just because otherwise each element in $result will still have two separate arrays for $prices and $notes.
