How to merge MySQL query result with JSON format - php

Question

Hi i am trying to merge output of MySQL result in JSON format but i confused how i can do this so guys i need your helps please tell me how i can do this work thank you.
SQL:
$result = $db->sql_query("SELECT a.*,i.member_id,i.members_seo_name
FROM ".TBL_IPB_USER." i
LEFT JOIN ".TBL_IPB_LA." a
ON a.member_id=i.member_id
WHERE i.".$column." = '".$val."' AND a.game = '".$game."'");
while( $dbarray = $db->sql_fetchrow($result) ){
$arr[] = $dbarray;
}
return ($arr);
The normal result and output with JSON format for my query is:
{
"status": 200,
"result": [
{
"member_id": "1",
"member_name": "maxdom",
"ip_address": "177.68.246.162",
"session_onlineplay": "1",
"sid": "IR63374a32d1424b9288c5f2a5ce161d",
"xuid": "0110000100000001",
"serialnumber": "9923806a06b7f700a6ef607099cb71c6",
"game": "PlusMW3",
"members_seo_name": "maxdom"
},
{
"member_id": "1",
"member_name": "maxdom",
"ip_address": "81.254.186.210",
"session_onlineplay": "1",
"sid": "IR3cd62da2f143e7b5c8f652d32ed314",
"xuid": "0110000100000001",
"serialnumber": "978e2b2668ec26e77c40c760f89c7b31",
"game": "PlusMW3",
"members_seo_name": "maxdom"
}
],
"handle": "checkUSER"
}
But i want to merge output and result like this one:
{
"status": 200,
"result": [
{
"member_id": "1",
"member_name": "maxdom",
"ip_address": [
"177.68.246.162",
"81.254.186.210"
],
"session_onlineplay": "1",
"sid": [
"IR63374a32d1424b9288c5f2a5ce161d",
"IR3cd62da2f143e7b5c8f652d32ed314"
],
"xuid": "0110000100000001",
"serialnumber": [
"9923806a06b7f700a6ef607099cb71c6",
"978e2b2668ec26e77c40c760f89c7b31"
],
"game": "PlusMW3",
"members_seo_name": "maxdom"
}
],
"handle": "checkUSER"
}

Answer 1

you better use php for your parser, prevent high load for database, this is sample code
$result = $db->sql_query("SELECT a.*,i.member_id,i.members_seo_name
FROM ".TBL_IPB_USER." i
LEFT JOIN ".TBL_IPB_LA." a
ON a.member_id=i.member_id
WHERE i.".$column." = '".$val."' AND a.game = '".$game."'");
$arr = array();
while( $dbarray = $db->sql_fetchrow($result) ){
$item = $dbarray;
$item['ip_address'] = array($item['ip_address']);
$item['sid'] = array($item['sid']);
$item['serialnumber'] = array($item['serialnumber']);
$index = $dbarray['member_id'];
if(isset($arr[$index]))
{
$arr[$index]['ip_address'] = array_merge($arr[$index]['ip_address'], $item['ip_address'];
$arr[$index]['sid'] = array_merge($arr[$index]['sid'], $item['sid'];
$arr[$index]['serialnumber'] = array_merge($arr[$index]['serialnumber'], $item['serialnumber']);
} else {
$arr[$index] = $item;
}
}
return array_values($arr);
