How to access child array key value pair in Laravel controller? - php

Question

My response code :
Shpping : [
{
"id": "1",
"name": "Dress",
"deleted_at": null,
"created_at": null,
"updated_at": null,
"minicomp": [
{
"id": "1",
"cname": "basic",
"base_id": 44
},
{
"id": "2",
"cname": "Shirt",
"base_id": 177444
},
{
"id": "3",
"cname": "Pants",
"base_id": 444
}
]
}
];
I want to access base_id of of every object in child array 'minicomp' whose parent is 'Shipping'. How can I access it?

First convert your json into array using json_decode().Like this..
$json =<your json>;
$array = json_decode($json,true);
Then
echo $array['Shpping '][0]]['minicomp'][0]['id'];//outputs 1
Example:
<?php
$json = '[{
"id": "1",
"name": "Dress",
"deleted_at": null,
"created_at": null,
"updated_at": null,
"minicomp": [{
"id": "1",
"cname": "basic",
"base_id": 44
}, {
"id": "2",
"cname": "Shirt",
"base_id": 177444
}, {
"id": "3",
"cname": "Pants",
"base_id": 444
}]
}]';
$array = json_decode($json,true);
//print_r($array);
$minicomp = $array[0]['minicomp'];
echo $minicomp[0]['id'];
echo $minicomp[1]['id'];
?>
UPDATE
For getting all ids.Without defining indexes.Use foreach loop:
foreach($minicomp as $key=>$value){
echo $minicomp[$key]['id']."<br/>";
}
