Extract key value pair output from JSON file using PHP - php

Question

I would like to extract key value pair output from JSON formatted file using PHP and put into html table & database with exact key column. I tried code mentioned in Extract JSON ouput to get line by line key pair values using PHP but it doesn't work for multiple lines and gives wrong output from 2nd line onwards itself due to multiple lines from 2nd key.
As we discussed in that, filing separate question to avoid clutter the same question.
JSON file content:

Answer 1

Your JSON seems not be formatted well in first place. You missed commas and square brackets.
This is a very basic solution but you can correct your JSON following this method:
Add commas
$json = str_replace("} {", "}, {", $original_json);
Clean a bit the code (this is rough. Good for your case but not the best at all!)
$json = str_replace("\[", "[", $json);
$json = str_replace("\]", "]", $json);
Wrap it inside [ ]
$your_json_string = "[" . $json . "]";
and then you can just use
$json_parsed = json_decode($your_json_string);
and
echo "<table class='table create-release-note-table'>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>#</th>
<th>Ticket ID</th>
<th>Status</th>
<th>Components</th>
<th>Affected Versions</th>
<th>Fix Versions</th>
<th>Description</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>";
foreach($json_parsed as $json_object){
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td></td>";
echo "<td>" . $json_object->key . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $json_object->status. "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $json_object->components. "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $json_object->affectedVersions. "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $json_object->fixVersions . "</td>";
echo "<td>" . $json_object->customerFacingInfo . "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</tbody>
</table>";
That's it

I'm afraid the issue is on the json file side.
If I understand correctly, the JSON file content exposed in your question is supposed to be a single json file.
If so, the format of the json seems incorrect.
Your json is structured as follow (I remove some parts of the content to help clarify my point):
{"key":"SEM-5765"}
{"key":"SEM-3325"}
{"key":"SEM-2755"}
Which is not a single json, but 3 differents jsons on a single file.
A correct json structure would have been:
[
{"key":"SEM-5765"},
{"key":"SEM-3325"},
{"key":"SEM-2755"},
]
Which is an array of json and a correct json structure.
So I think you have two possibilities :
you can correct the json structure
you can read your file by separating each line and traited each line as a single json
Either way, you will have to add a step to your code to loop through each line/json entity

In your case you can use explode and implode php function to get your desire output.
I have added few code lines :
$lineExplode = explode('}',$line);
$line = implode(',',$lineExplode);
$lineArray = json_decode("[".$line."]", true);
All other code is the same as your example:
<?php
echo "<table class='table create-release-note-table'>
<thead>
<tr><th>#</th><th>Ticket ID</th><th>Status</th><th>Components</th><th>Affected Versions</th><th>Fix Versions</th><th>Description</th></tr>
</thead>
<tbody>";
$i = 0;
$resultFile = fopen($resultURL, "r");
#$lines = file($resultURL, FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES | FILE_SKIP_EMPTY_LINES);
#print_r ($lines);
#exit;
while (!feof($resultFile)) {
$line = trim(fgets ($resultFile));
$line = str_replace("\\\"", "", $line);
$line = stripslashes($line);
$lineExplode = explode('}',$line);
$line = implode(',',$lineExplode);
$lineArray = json_decode("[".$line."]", true);
echo "<tr><td>" . ++$i . "</td>";
parseData($lineArray);
echo "</tr>";
}
echo "</tbody></table>";
fclose ($resultFile);
// Parse release note data
function parseData($array) {
$value = str_replace(",", ";", $value);
foreach ($array as $key => $value) {
if (is_bool($value)) {
echo ("<td>" . $value? 'true' : '') . "</td>";
} else {
echo "<td>" . $value . "</td>";
}
}
}
?>
