Php make column wise array from an existing array - php

Question

I wanted to make an array as column from another array which representing like below. the column should be individual based on each index like , custom_text, thumb and title. I did more favor below.
array(6) {
[0]=>
array(1) {
["custom_text"]=>
string(15) "custom text 1"
}
[1]=>
array(1) {
["custom_text"]=>
string(18) "custom text 2"
}
[2]=>
array(1) {
["thumb"]=>
string(59) "image 1"
}
[3]=>
array(1) {
["thumb"]=>
string(59) "image 2"
}
[4]=>
array(1) {
["title"]=>
string(51) "title 1"
}
[5]=>
array(1) {
["title"]=>
string(181) "title 2"
}
}
here below code is for the array output
$th = array();
$allrows = array();
foreach($aawp_table['rows'] as $table_row_id => $table_row ){
if ( ! $table_row['status'] )
continue;
$th[] = array('headings' => $table_row['label']);
foreach ($aawp_table['products'] as $table_product_id => $table_product){
$asin = $aawp_table['products'][$table_product_id]['asin'];
$data = $aawp_table['products'][$table_product_id]['rows'][$table_row_id];
$type = $aawp_table['rows'][$table_row_id]['type'];
if ( 'custom_text' === $type ) {
$allrows[] = array(
'custom_text' => 'custom text'
);
}
if ( 'thumb' === $type ) {
$allrows[] = array(
'thumb' => 'thumb'
);
}
if('title' === $type){
$allrows[] = array(
'title' => 'title'
);
}
}
}
echo '<pre>';
var_dump($allrows);
echo '</pre>';
I want the array out like this as individual column
array(2) {
[0]=>
string() "custom text 1"
[1]=>
string() "image 1"
[2]=>
string() "custom text 2"
}
Can you please help to do it?

Answer 1

Let's iterate over the array you have and get all values for resulting array. Something like that.
<?php
$array = [
[
'custom_text' => 'custom text 1',
],
[
'custom_text' => 'custom text 2',
],
[
'thumb' => 'image 1',
],
[
'thumb' => 'image 2',
],
[
'title' => 'title 1',
],
[
'title' => 'title 2',
],
];
$result = [];
foreach ($array as $outterArray) {
foreach ($outterArray as $innerArrayValue) {
$result[] = $innerArrayValue;
}
}
var_dump($result);
The code snippet would generate the following output.
array(6) {
[0]=>
string(13) "custom text 1"
[1]=>
string(13) "custom text 2"
[2]=>
string(7) "image 1"
[3]=>
string(7) "image 2"
[4]=>
string(7) "title 1"
[5]=>
string(7) "title 2"
}

Instead of doing this
if ( 'custom_text' === $type ) {
$allrows[] = array(
'custom_text' => 'custom text'
);
}
if ( 'thumb' === $type ) {
$allrows[] = array(
'thumb' => 'thumb'
);
}
if('title' === $type){
$allrows[] = array(
'title' => 'title'
);
}
You should do this
if($type === 'title' || $type === 'thumb' || $type === 'custom_text'){
array_push($allrows,$type);
}
