I have an array of image data like this:
[other-image] => Array
(
[img] => Array
(
[0] => 1526973657.jpg
[1] => 1526973661.jpg
[2] => 1526973665.jpg
)
[path] => Array
(
[0] => ../post-upload/1/
[1] => ../post-upload/1/
[2] => ../post-upload/1/
)
[type] => Array
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 1
[2] => 1
)
[thumb] => Array
(
[0] => thumb_1526973661.jpg
[1] => thumb_1526973665.jpg
[2] => thumb_1526973668.jpg
)
)
Now I want to delete an image and it's all related data from sub arrays. (path, type, thumb data)
This is how I tried it in php:
$delkey = '1526973657.jpg';
if(in_array($delkey, $_SESSION['other-image']['img'])){
$imgkey = array_search($delkey, $_SESSION['other-image']['img']);
if($imgkey) unset($_SESSION['other-image']['img'][$imgkey]);
}
But problem is I can't delete related data from other arrays.
Can anybody tell me how to do this?
Thank you.
You should use !==false after array_search() because it may return first index i.e. 0 in some cases, so your condition will not executed. And regarding delete related data from other arrays, you have to unset other data related to that key.
if($imgkey!==false){
unset($_SESSION['other-image']['img'][$imgkey]);
unset($_SESSION['other-image']['path'][$imgkey]);
unset($_SESSION['other-image']['type'][$imgkey]);
unset($_SESSION['other-image']['thumb'][$imgkey]);
}
Is the related data has same key with img?
If they are same, I think you only need to add some codes to delete other data like the way was used to delete img.
if($imgkey) unset($_SESSION['other-image']['path'][$imgkey]);
if($imgkey) unset($_SESSION['other-image']['type'][$imgkey]);
if($imgkey) unset($_SESSION['other-image']['thumb'][$imgkey]);
If the keys in img sub-array are related with the same key(index) in sub-arrays(path, type and thumb, you can also unset those keys. e.g.
$delkey = '1526973657.jpg';
if(in_array($delkey, $_SESSION['other-image']['img'])){
$imgkey = array_search($delkey, $_SESSION['other-image']['img']);
if($imgkey){
unset($_SESSION['other-image']['img'][$imgkey]);
unset($_SESSION['other-image']['path'][$imgkey]);
unset($_SESSION['other-image']['type'][$imgkey]);
unset($_SESSION['other-image']['thumb'][$imgkey]);
}
}

I'm having trouble with putting this question to words so ill just use a simple example, hope the title sortof got my problem across.
I'm creating a blog site where I can create blogposts and people can post comments. This is all saved in JSON except for login details which are saved in MySQL.
Now saving the blogposts go fine but I'm now trying to save comments.
Lets say the blogpost array looks like this:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 0
[title] => first blogpost
[content] => blogpost text
)
[1] => Array
(
[id] => 1
[title] => second blogpost
[content] => blogpost 2 text
)
)
Now someone writes a comment on 'second blogpost', I save it into an array like this(user taken from MySQL):
Array
(
[user] => myusername
[comment] => first post was better!
)
Now I want to merge them like this:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 0
[title] => first blogpost
[content] => blogpost text
)
[1] => Array
(
[id] => 1
[title] => second blogpost
[content] => blogpost 2 text
[comments] => Array
(
[user] => myusername
[comment] => first post was better!
)
)
)
I tried searching for a while and I'd expect this to be somewhere on the site already but I can't find it. I tried a couple variations of array_push and array_merge but it always ended up replacing the relevant blogpost instead of adding onto it.
EDIT: Someone noted the new array can't just float around, I think it's better now.
If you had any related key between posts and comments ( like having post_id in comment array ) that would make more sense to merge/put them.
I assume that's your blogpost
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 0
[title] => first blogpost
[content] => blogpost text
)
[1] => Array
(
[id] => 1
[title] => second blogpost
[content] => blogpost 2 text
)
)
And your comments should be like:
Array
(
[user] => myusername
[comment] => first post was better!
[post_id] => 1
)
That way, you would be able to find the matched blogpost.
But, outside of your data structure, here is an example to merge an item into an element of an array of array.
A nested loop example.
foreach($posts as &$post){
foreach($comments as $comment){
if($post['id'] == $comment['post_id']){
$post['comments'][] = $comment;
}
}
}
the key here is sending each reference of the element into loop by &$post and then just manipulate them in loop.
Working with indexed arrays. (Like you already have index names as post_id and a comments index as an empty array)
foreach($comments as $comment){
$posts[$comment['post_id']]['comments'][] = $comment;
}
When the blogpost is updated, I assume you can get the id of that blogpost.
Then you can check if your data structure already has a key "comments". If it does not, add the key and create an array containing the comment and the user as the first array.
If it already exists, add a new array with the user and the comment so that there can be multiple comments for each blogpost.
For example using array_map:
$blogPosts = array_map(function ($blogPost) use ($blogPostId, $comment) {
if ($blogPost["id"] === $blogPostId) {
isset($blogPost["comments"]) ? $blogPost["comments"][] = $comment : $blogPost["comments"] = [$comment];
return $blogPost;
}
return $blogPost;
}, $blogPosts);
Php demo
So I fixed it after a bit of thinking
This is the final structure:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 0
[title] => 1st post
[content] => 1st post works!
[date] => 21-01-2019
[comments] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[user] => Me
[comment] => hey 1
[date] => 12:02 21-01-2019
)
[1] => Array
(
[user] => Me
[comment] => hey 2
[date] => 12:03 21-01-2019
)
)
)
)
I added a timestamp because of a suggestion here. It's also a simplified version of what I actually use, I tried adding many more comments and on multiple posts which both work.
This is the code, I should mention the ID is in the URL and it's saved as JSON:
$filename = file.json;
$currentArray = json_decode(file_get_contents($filename), true);
$comment = $_POST['comment'];
$username = $_SESSION['username'];
$date = date("H:i d-m-Y");
$id = $_GET['id'];
Pretty straightforward so far, here is how the array is created:
$currentArray[$id]["comments"][] = array (
'user' => $username,
'comment' => $comment,
'date' => $date
);
[$id] saves it to the correct post, ["comments"] saves it to the comments key(or creates it) and the last [] gives every comment a different index inside the ["comments"].
$newJSON = json_encode($currentArray, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);
file_put_contents($filename, $newJSON);
And lastly encoding it and saving it to JSON.
Hope this helps someone.
So I want to delete an array element from a JSON array based on an id in a sub-array. I know it sounds weird. Here's an example of the array. I want to delete the entire array [0] based on the [dealer][id] array where the [id] = 20220 in this example.
Array
(
[results] => Array
(
[offset] => 1
[length] => 15
[data] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[dealer] => Array
(
[id] => 20220
[name] => apple
)
)
)
)
}
In reality there are a lot more elements in the [results] array. I'm not sure how to go about it.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Loop thru data key first then check if dealer id matches the searched id
$id = 20220;
foreach ($array['results']['data'] as $key => $value) {
if ($value['dealer']['id'] == $id) {
unset($array['results']['data'][$key]);
}
}
use array_filter,
$array['results']['data'] = array_filter($array['results']['data'], function($v){return $v['dealer']['id'] != 20220;});
I have an array like this:
(
[data] => Array
(
[account_id] => 1
[description] => my asset
[value] => Estimate
[value_amount] => 85000
[type] => Vehicle
[owner] => Array
(
[app_id] => 123
[percent] => 100
)
)
)
Clearly I can loop through the array and pull out the nested owner array that way, but is there something similar to array_column that will get the entire owner nested array without having to loop ?
Use the indexes, no function necessary.
$owner = $array['data']['owner']
or..
$percent = $array['data']['owner']['percent']
In php it's call associative array which mean index will not numeric it can be anythink.
So you can retrieve data like
<?php echo $array['data']['owner']['app_id']; ?>
I want to store the contents of a specific database into an array, grouped by their primary keys. (Instead of the useless way PDO fetchAll() organises them).
My current code:
$DownloadsPDO = $database->dbh->prepare("SELECT * FROM `downloads`");
$DownloadsArray = $DownloadsPDO->execute();
$DownloadsArray = $DownloadsPDO->fetchAll();
Which then outputs:
Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 0 [0] => 0 [path] => /xx-xx/testfile.zip [1] => /xx-xx/testfile.zip [name] => Test Script [2] => Test Script [status] => 1 [3] => 1 ) [1] => Array ( [id] => 1 [0] => 1 [path] => /xx-xx/test--file.zip [1] => /xxxx/testfile.zip [name] => New Script-UPDATE [2] => New Script-UPDATE [status] => 1 [3] => 1 ) )
I was considering to use PDO::FETCH_PAIR, however I will be very soon expanding the amount of data I want to be able to use on this script. This works currently, but when I start to expand the amount of downloads and more clients come into play, obviously the way the data is grouped causes an issue.
Is it possible for me to group each array by their primary key (which is id)?
You can just use
$results = array_map('reset', $stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_GROUP|PDO::FETCH_ASSOC))
PDO::FETCH_GROUP|PDO::FETCH_ASSOC returns an array of arrays. The first column is used as the key, and then within key is an array of all the results for that key. However, in our scenario each key will only contain 1 row. reset() returns the first element in array, thus eliminating 1 level of nesting.
This should yield what you are looking for :
$results = $pdos->fetchAll(\PDO::FETCH_UNIQUE|\PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
I decided to just loop through the results with fetch() and enter them into an array as I go along, this is the code I have used and it works just fine:
$DownloadsPDO = $database->dbh->query("SELECT * FROM `downloads`");
$Array = array();
while ($d = $DownloadsPDO->fetch()) {
$Array[$d['id']]["id"] = $d['id'];
$Array[$d['id']]["name"] = $d['name'];
$Array[$d['id']]["path"] = $d['path'];
}
// Outputs
Array ( [1] => Array ( [id] => 1 [name] => Test Script [path] => /xxxx/testfile.zip ) [2] => Array ( [id] => 2 [name] => New Script-UPDATE [path] => /xxxx/testfile.zip ) )
Which uses the primary key (being id) as the name for the array key, and then adds the data into it.
Thought I would add this as the answer as this solved it, thanks to the guys that helped out and I hope this is helpful to anyone else hoping to achieve the same thing.
I'd like to point out the only solution that works for me:
fetchAll(\PDO::FETCH_GROUP|\PDO::FETCH_UNIQUE|\PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
Beware that this will strip the first column from the resultset. So the query must be:
SELECT id_keyname AS arrkey, id_keyname, .... FROM ...
I'm still suggesting you to loop using fetch() method. Otherwise, you can use array_reduce() to iterate over the array. A sample on codepad is here.
The code(in human readable form) will be:
$myFinalArray = array_reduce($myInputArray, function($returnArray, $temp) {
$temp2 = $temp['id'];
unset($temp['id']);
$returnArray[$temp2] = $temp;
return $returnArray;
}
);
So, my question is; is it possible for me to group each array by their
primary key (which is id)
Off course, you have 2 options here: Either to change the query or parse a result-set.
So, I'm sure you don't want to change query itself, so I'd go with parsing result-set.
Note:
You should use prepared SQL statements when they make sense. If you want to bind some parameters then its OKAY. But in this case, you only want get get result-set, so prepare() and fetch() will be kinda overdo.
So, you have:
Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 0 [0] => 0 [path] => /xx-xx/testfile.zip [1] => /xx-xx/testfile.zip [name] => Test Script [2] => Test Script [status] => 1 [3] => 1 ) [1] => Array ( [id] => 1 [0] => 1 [path] => /xx-xx/test--file.zip [1] => /xxxx/testfile.zip [name] => New Script-UPDATE [2] => New Script-UPDATE [status] => 1 [3] => 1 ) )
And you want:
Array( [id] => Array('bar' => 'foo') ....)
Well, you can do something like this:
$stmt = $database->dbh->query("SELECT * FROM `downloads`");
$result = array();
foreach($stmt as $array){
$result[$array['id']] = $array;
}
print_r($result); // Outputs: Array(Array('id' => Array(...)))
this array is generated and i want to be able to somehow grab the parent key without knowing the name, since i wont.
so the value i want is each array groups parent which would be zbench1, zbench2, .. and so on.
this array is already attached to a variable and i tried printing $myelements[0] but it gives an offset error.
Array
(
[zbench] => Array
(
[0] => editor-style.css
[1] => images
[2] => pagenavi-css.css
[3] => screenshot.png
[4] => style.css
)
[zbench1] => Array
(
[0] => editor-style.css
[1] => images
[2] => pagenavi-css.css
[3] => screenshot.png
[4] => style.css
)
[zbench2] => Array
(
[0] => editor-style.css
[1] => images
[2] => pagenavi-css.css
[3] => screenshot.png
[4] => style.css
)
[zbench3] => Array
(
[0] => editor-style.css
[1] => images
[2] => pagenavi-css.css
[3] => screenshot.png
[4] => style.css
)
)
You can get the values with array_keys().
foreach ($array as $key=>$value)
Or, if you have the key in a variable but don't a priori know what it is:
$array[$variable_holding_key]
Or if you just want to know what the keys are, but not necessarily do anything with them (all):
array_keys($array)
By definition, the inner arrays are only reachable via keys in the containing array - you have to know which parent key to use to access the appropriate child array. Is there a difference between each of those child arrays, other than having a slightly different parent key?
You can get all the keys in an array via array_keys(), which returns the keys as values in another array. Or you can use foreach($your_array as $key => $val) to iterate over each element in the array and get its associated key at the same time.
current() may work, it returns what the cursor is pointing to.
$element[key($element)]
array_shift, but this removes the last item.
