Convert a CSV file into JSON [BUG] - php

I would like to create a JSON file with my CSV file.
But I get an error with the function array_combine.
How could i fix that please?
Here is the code:
function csvtojson($file,$delimiter)
{
if (($handle = fopen($file, "r")) === false)
{
die("can't open the file.");
}
$csv_headers = fgetcsv($handle, 4000, $delimiter);
$csv_json = array();
while ($row = fgetcsv($handle, 4000, $delimiter))
{
$csv_json[] = array_combine($csv_headers, $row);
}
fclose($handle);
return json_encode($csv_json);}
Here is the error:
Warning: array_combine(): Both parameters should have an equal number
of elements in /var/www/inae-obs/app/controllers/csvToJson.php on line
15

You can use a custom array_combine method to overcome this:
<?php
function array_combine_custom($keys, $values){
$combined = [];
$keys_values = array_values($keys);
$values_values = array_values($keys);
foreach($keys_values as $index => $key){
$combined[$key] = isset($values_values[$index]) ? $values_values[$index] : null;
}
return $combined;
}
if the keys and values are in order and you are OK with ignoring the rest.

Using str_replace function to replace multiple string of an array

I have a multidimensional array $arrResult1 imported from CSV file, I want to replace the multiple values in that array with different values. I have tried str_replace and it works for single replacement.
<?php
$File = 'charge1.csv';
$arrResult = array();
$handle = fopen($File,"r");
if(empty($handle) == false){
while(($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE){
$arrResult[] = $data;
}
fclose($handle);
}
$file = 'ActualCharge.csv';
$arrResult1 = array();
$handle = fopen($file,"r");
if(empty($handle) == false){
while(($values = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE){
$arrResult1[] = $values;
}
fclose($handle);
}
$newArray = array();
foreach($arrResult1 as $inner_array) {
$newArray[] = str_replace("$11.16","$14.00", $inner_array);
}
var_dump($newArray[6]);
But when I try to replace more values like this
$newArray[] = str_replace(array("$11.16","$14.00"),array("$12.16","$15.00"), $inner_array);
It does not work. I have total 16 values that need to be replaced. Can you please help and let me know what I am doing wrong here or if there is any other way to solve this. TIA

Edit first line CSV with PHP

I want to edit the first line (column titles) of an CSV file. Only one problem, the script I have is replacing everything. I've tried to search for a solution, but no luck.
Script:
<?php if(isset($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"])){
$newCsvData = array();
if (($handle = fopen("".$_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"]."", "r")) !== FALSE) {
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) { $base = array("EAN","article","status");
$replacements = array(1=> "SKU");
$basket = array_replace($base, $replacements);
$newCsvData[] = $basket;
}
fclose($handle);
}
$handle = fopen("export/".$_FILES["file"]["name"]."", "w");
foreach ($newCsvData as $line) {
fputcsv($handle, $line);
}
fclose($handle); } else{ echo" ";} ?>
Does someone know what I'm doing wrong?
You should try:
$first = true;
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== false) {
$base = array("EAN", "article", "status");
$replacements = array(1 => "SKU");
if($first){
$data = array_replace($base, $replacements);
$first = false;
}
$newCsvData[] = $data;
}
$first is a flag to detect just first row and replacing $data array values with titles array. Then you should push $data to $newCsvData. So only first row will replace by new values and other rows will remain as same data.

unable to write csv from array

I read most of the discussions about my problem but I do not find a solution.
So, I have a .csv file from which I read, extract all the content and populate a multidimensional array. That is the code I wrote to do that:
if (($handle = fopen("dateRegion.csv", "r")) !== FALSE) {
# Set the parent multidimensional array key to 0.
$pr = 0;
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
# Count the total keys in the row.
$count = count($data);
# Populate the multidimensional array.
for ($x = 0; $x < $count; $x++) {
$brim[$pr][$x] = $data[$x];
}
$pr++;
}
fclose($handle);
}
After that, I extract the element I need and put it into another array. That array will be the content of the new .csv file.
This is the code:
$parserCsv = array();
$dip=1;
do {
$region = $brim[$dip][7];
$sex = $brim[$dip][8];
$frequency = $brim[$dip][9];
$value = $brim[$dip][10];
$parserCsv[] = array($region, $sex, $frequency, $value);
$dip++;
} while($dip <= 6336);
This is the "var_dump()" of the array:
Array(
[0] => Piemonte
[1] => maschi
[2] => 2005
[3] => 16.972)
etc.
I tried to put the content of the array $parserCsv using the method fputcsv(), with that script:
$fp = fopen('csvExtract.csv', 'w');
foreach ($parserCsv as $fields) {
fputcsv($fp, $fields);
}
fclose($fp);
but it did not work. The content of the file csvExtract.csv is blank. I do not understand my mistake, I tried other solution like create the array $parserCsv like:
$parserCsv = array(
array($region), array($sex), array($frequency), array($value));
and nothing change. Does anyone have some advise?
EDIT: Edited the code with the solution suggested by mkjasinski! The code is working now.
Thanks for all the replies.

Try this:
if (($handle = fopen("dateRegion.csv", "r")) !== FALSE) {
# Set the parent multidimensional array key to 0.
$pr = 0;
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
# Count the total keys in the row.
$count = count($data);
# Populate the multidimensional array.
for ($x = 0; $x < $count; $x++) {
$brim[$pr][$x] = $data[$x];
}
$pr++;
}
fclose($handle);
}
and this:
$parserCsv = array();
$dip=1;
do {
$region = $brim[$dip][7];
$sex = $brim[$dip][8];
$frequency = $brim[$dip][9];
$value = $brim[$dip][10];
$parserCsv[] = array($region, $sex, $frequency, $value);
$dip++;
} while($dip <= 6336);
and save:
$fp = fopen('csvExtract.csv', 'w');
foreach ($parserCsv as $fields) {
fputcsv($fp, $fields);
}
fclose($fp);
are you getting some errors?
Is the file open in some other software? (like MS Excel?)
Following code enters 4 records in CSV
$parserCsv = array(
array('Piemonte'),
array('maschi'),
array(2005),
array(16.972)
);
$fp = fopen('blah.csv', 'w');
foreach($parserCsv as $fields)
{
fputcsv($fp, $fields);
}
fclose($fp);

read contents of two csv files in php and merge them into a third file based on a key field

I've searched the web and looked through existing answers but cant find a solution to this one. I want to use php to do the following task. Here are my files:
csv file 1: member.csv
member1|john|smith|2009
member2|adam|jones|2007
member3|susie|rose|2002
csv file 2: classes.csv
member1|massage|swimming|weights
member2|gym|track|pilates
member3|yoga|running|stretches
I want to output a third file called file3.csv which merges the two above files together based on the key field which is the member number. the output should be like this:
member1|john|smith|2009|massage|swimming|weights
member2|adam|jones|2007|gym|track|pilates
member3|susie|rose|2002|yoga|running|stretches
the delimiter is a bar character. I want to do this just using php - no other languages.
I would be very greatful for a solution.

Read both files and store data to the array with keys: member1, ...
Write a new file lines in loop:
foreach ($firstArray as $key => $value1) {
$value2 = $secondArray[$key];
// ...
}
<?php
$data = array();
if (($handle = fopen('file1.csv', 'r')) !== FALSE) {
while (($line = fgetcsv($handle, 0, '|')) !== FALSE) {
$memberId = $line[0];
unset($line[0]);
$data[$memberId] = $line;
}
fclose($handle);
}
if (($handle = fopen('file2.csv', 'r')) !== FALSE) {
while (($line = fgetcsv($handle, 0, '|')) !== FALSE) {
$memberId = $line[0];
unset($line[0]);
$data[$memberId] = array_merge($data[$memberId], $line);
}
fclose($handle);
}
ksort($data); // not needed, but puts records in order by member
if (($handle = fopen('file3.csv', 'w')) !== FALSE) {
foreach($data as $key => $value) {
fwrite($handle, "$key|" . implode('|', $value) . "\n");
}
fclose($handle);
}
Try this. It is untested.
$arr_one = array();
if (($fp = fopen("member.csv", "r")) !== FALSE) {
while (($data = fgetcsv($fp, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
$arr_one[$data[0]] = $data;
}
fclose($fp);
}
$arr_two = array();
if (($fp = fopen("classes.csv", "r")) !== FALSE) {
while (($data = fgetcsv($fp, 1000, ",")) !== FALSE) {
$arr_two[$data[0]] = $data;
}
fclose($fp);
}
$classes_field_count = sizeof(current($arr_two));
$members = array_keys($arr_one);
foreach ($members as $key) {
if (!isset($arr_two[$key])) {
$arr_two[$key] = range(0, ($classes_field_count - 1));
}
unset($arr_two[$key][0]);
$result_arr[$key] = array_merge($arr_one[$key], $arr_two[$key]);
}
if (($fp = fopen("file3.csv", "w")) !== FALSE) {
foreach ($result_arr as $fields) {
fputcsv($fp, $fields, '|');
}
fclose($fp);
}

CSV to Json with header row as key

I would like to convert a CSV to Json, use the header row as a key, and each line as object. How do I go about doing this?
----------------------------------CSV---------------------------------
InvKey,DocNum,CardCode
11704,1611704,BENV1072
11703,1611703,BENV1073
---------------------------------PHP-----------------------------------
if (($handle = fopen('upload/BEN-new.csv'. '', "r")) !== FALSE) {
while (($row_array = fgetcsv($handle, 1024, ","))) {
while ($val != '') {
foreach ($row_array as $key => $val) {
$row_array[] = $val;
}
}
$complete[] = $row_array;
}
fclose($handle);
}
echo json_encode($complete);
Just read the first line separately and merge it into every row:
if (($handle = fopen('upload/BEN-new.csv', 'r')) === false) {
die('Error opening file');
}
$headers = fgetcsv($handle, 1024, ',');
$complete = array();
while ($row = fgetcsv($handle, 1024, ',')) {
$complete[] = array_combine($headers, $row);
}
fclose($handle);
echo json_encode($complete);
I find myself converting csv strings to arrays or objects every few months.
I created a class because I'm lazy and dont like copy/pasting code.
This class will convert a csv string to custom class objects:

For those who'd like things spelled out a little more + some room to further parse any row / column without additional loops:
function csv_to_json_byheader($filename){
$json = array();
if (($handle = fopen($filename, "r")) !== FALSE) {
$rownum = 0;
$header = array();
while (($row = fgetcsv($handle, 1024, ",")) !== FALSE) {
if ($rownum === 0) {
for($i=0; $i < count($row); $i++){
// maybe you want to strip special characters or merge duplicate columns here?
$header[$i] = trim($row[$i]);
}
} else {
if (count($row) === count($header)) {
$rowJson = array();
foreach($header as $i=>$head) {
// maybe handle special row/cell parsing here, per column header
$rowJson[$head] = $row[$i];
}
array_push($json, $rowJson);
}
}
$rownum++;
}
fclose($handle);
}
return $json;
}
