Unexpected token in JSON at position 43 - php

Question

Im trying to Fetch Data From a PHP Server Running MySQL. In my angular controller I do $http.get("dbconnection.php")
In my dbconnection.php I have this code which just Selects everything from the database and sends it back.
$conn = new mysqli......
$result = $conn->query("SELECT * FROM ...");
$outp = "";
while ($rs = $result->fetch_array(MYSQLI_ASSOC)) {
if ($outp != "") {
$outp .= ",";
}
$outp .= '{"id":"' . $rs["id"] . '",';
$outp .= '"name":"' . $rs["name"] . '",';
$outp .= '"price":"' . $rs["price"] . '"}';
$outp .= '"created":"' . $rs["created"] . '"}';
$outp .= '"img":"' . $rs["img"] . '"}';
}
$outp = '{"records":[' . $outp . ']}';
$conn->close();
echo $outp;
When I visit my site to see take a look at the Data under
Network Tab > XHR > dbconnection.php > Preview
I see the data but its weird formatted.
See picture of weird formatted json
I think thats the reason for why I get the
Unexpected token in JSON at position 43 ERROR
when I am trying to fetch the data.

To got well formatted JSON outputs, use json_encode function.
In your case :
$conn = new mysqli......
$result = $conn->query("SELECT * FROM ...");
$json = ["records" => []];
while ($rs = $result->fetch_array(MYSQLI_ASSOC)) {
$json["records"][] = $rs;
}
$conn->close();
echo json_encode($json);
