PHP Creating a short array from a list - php

Question

I want to dynamically create a short array with a list of objects. This is for a POST request with the Guzzle client. That's why I need it in a short array.
example of a Guzzle post request:
$res = $this->client->request($methode, $request_url, [
'form_params' => [
'param' => 'value'
]
]);
Problem case:
I have got a List: Params of Objects: Param.
Param has three attributes id, name, link_id.
Let's say the List has three Object.
param(1, email, 1)
param(2, username, 1)
param(3, password, 1)
I want to dynamically create from the list an array with the short array syntax.
Example(Pseudo):
for each params as param
[
'form_params' => [
param->name => 'value'
]
]
the result of this code will be like this
[
'form_params' => [
'email' => 'value',
'username' => 'value',
'password' => 'value'
]
]
Code example:
$params = array(
"param" => array (
"id" => "1",
"name" => "username",
"link_id" => "1",
)
);
$value = '';
$shortarray = '';
foreach($params as $key => $param){
$shortarray .= $param->name . '=>' . $value . ',';
}
$postParams = ['form_params' => [ . $shortarray . ]];
I really could use some help. Thank you in advance.

I am not quite sure why you require it be a "short array", but here's a solution...
I assume this is a web form, yes?
So let's assume you name your forms in a way that is usable, like:
<form method="POST" action="yourform.html">
Line 1 <input name="email1"> | <input name="user1"> | <input name="password1">
<br/>-------<br/>
Line 2 <input name="email2"> | <input name="user2"> | <input name="password2">
<br/>-------<br/>
Line 3 <input name="email3"> | <input name="user3"> | <input name="password3">
</form>
Then...
for($i = 1; $i <= 3; $i++ {
$postparms[] = ['email' => $_POST['email'.$i], 'user' => $_POST['user'.$i], 'password' => $_POST['password'.$i] ];
}
print_r($postparms);
