How to use php serialize() and unserialize()
(10 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
I just added some custom fields for users. So 'api' is one of them.
function abc(){
$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
print_r(get_user_meta($current_user->id)['api'][0]);
}
add_action('init', 'abc');
And the result I get is a string:
a:2:{i:0;s:9:"paybphone";i:1;s:3:"ips";}
I don't know how to access "i" value from the PHP code as its string. And I also know its not JSON , so I also can't use 'json_encode()' function. Please help me out ! I am new to Wordpress programming.

You can pass your result into the unserialize() function from php, it will return your PHP array that you can easily access after

<?php
function rpnyt_article_get_result( $rpnyt_search , $rpnyt_key ){
$rpnyt_url = 'https://api.nytimes.com/svc/search/v2/articlesearch.json?q='.$rpnyt_search.'&api-key='.$rpnyt_key ;
$json_feed = wp_remote_get($rpnyt_url);
var_dump($json_feed[ 'body']);
}
?>
im getting response back as expected but that includes file url from where im calling this function like /home/ubuntu/XXXXXXXXX/xxxxxxxxxxxx/plugins/XXxxx/includes/rpnyt-news-content.php:8:(see image)
Try var_export() instead of var_dump().

Consider using
echo(json_encode($your_thing));

What kind of string is this? How do I unserialize this string? [duplicate]

I got the following string:
a:16:{i:0;s:1:"6";i:1;s:2:"12";i:2;s:1:"2";i:3;s:2:"11";i:4;s:1:"7";i:5;s:2:"10";i:6;s:2:"16";i:7;s:1:"5";i:8;s:1:"3";i:9;s:1:"1";i:10;s:2:"14";i:11;s:1:"8";i:12;s:2:"13";i:13;s:1:"9";i:14;s:1:"4";i:15;s:2:"15";}
I can't use
var_dump(json_decode($json))
because it doesn't return anything. I found 2 websites that where a bit usefull:
http://jsonlint.com/ for checking if the object is valid (what it ain't) and http://www.unserialize.com/ wich can 'unserialize' the json string back to an array.
Now I wonder what unserialize does to the json string. So I can use it in my script as well.
Looks like this is in serialized form. You need to use unserialize() function here.
$input = 'a:16:{i:0;s:1:"6";i:1;s:2:"12";i:2;s:1:"2";i:3;s:2:"11";i:4;s:1:"7";i:5;s:2:"10";i:6;s:2:"16";i:7;s:1:"5";i:8;s:1:"3";i:9;s:1:"1";i:10;s:2:"14";i:11;s:1:"8";i:12;s:2:"13";i:13;s:1:"9";i:14;s:1:"4";i:15;s:2:"15";}';
var_dump(unserialize($input));
Use unserialize function in php
<?php
echo '<pre>';
print_r(unserialize('a:16:{i:0;s:1:"6";i:1;s:2:"12";i:2;s:1:"2";i:3;s:2:"11";i:4;s:1:"7";i:5;s:2:"10";i:6;s:2:"16";i:7;s:1:"5";i:8;s:1:"3";i:9;s:1:"1";i:10;s:2:"14";i:11;s:1:"8";i:12;s:2:"13";i:13;s:1:"9";i:14;s:1:"4";i:15;s:2:"15";}'));

I need to extract the name of the png which in this array is: 56f26f5862fb85.90873638.png. The value is the following context:
i:204;s:27:"56f26f5862fb85.90873638.png";
It would be really convenient if I could look the name after the 204 which is always fixec.
Any guidance or suggestion as for how to solve it is much appreciated.
That is a serialized PHP value, created using the serialize() function.
You can unserialize it using the unserialize() function:
$data = unserialize('a:2:{s:18:"_gravity [...] tal";s:5:"Total";}}');

Parse query string into an array

How can I convert this to an array in PHP?
&height=0&weight=2&width=10
I'm passing a data from a jquery function using .serialize() to a PHP function.
Any ideas?
Can be done within one line. :)
parse_str('&height=0&weight=2&width=10', $array);
print_r($array);
Depending on what type of request you are performing, it may already be in an array. Have a look at the PHP documentation on $_GET and $_POST global variables.
To view the contents of said array. You can use the function print_r() which will show you the contents of the array.
print_r($_GET)
print_r($_POST)
Access individual items in the array by the item's key. For example:
echo $_POST['height'];

i need to recursively call a variable function, how can i do this?
$rec = function($li) use($html,$rec) { // error, rec was not defined yet
if( ... ) $rec( ... );
}
how can i do this?
Use the function variable $rec by reference (&$rec) so you can set it to the function then. This will also define it.
use($html, &$rec)
^
You find this principle outlined in the question Anonymous recursive PHP functions.
