How to append value in array with keys without getting overriding - php

Question

i'm getting result in a foreach loop now i want to form a new array with keys and form that array with my new data. Now when i try to assign data it gets override to the previous one as it's not getting new index. how can i achive that so far i have done that:
foreach ($result as $key) {
$pickup_location = $key->locationid;
if (isset($pickup_location)) {
$pickup_location = $this->db->get_where('locations', array('id' => $pickup_location ))->row();
if (!empty($pickup_location)) {
$supplier_dashboard['pickup_location_name'] = $pickup_location->name_en;
}
}
$dropoff_location = $key->location_dropoff;
if (isset($dropoff_location)) {
$dropoff_location = $this->db->get_where('locations', array('id' => $dropoff_location ))->row();
if (!empty($dropoff_location)) {
$supplier_dashboard['dropoff_location_name'] = $dropoff_location->name_en;
}
}
$car_make = $key->car_id;
if (isset($car_make)) {
$car_details = $this->db->get_where('chauffeur_rates', array('chauffeur_id' => $car_make))->row();
if (!empty($car_details)) {
$supplier_dashboard['car_make'] = $car_details->chauffeur_make;
}
}
}
return $supplier_dashboard;
}
and my resulting array is:
Array
(
[pickup_location_name] => Seoul Downtown
[dropoff_location_name] => Disneyland Paris
[car_make] => makecar
)
however i have atleast 7 location names and car makes instead of getting added as a new array it overrides the previous one, i should have get the result as
Array
[0](
[pickup_location_name] => Seoul Downtown
[dropoff_location_name] => Disneyland Paris
[car_make] => makecar
)
Array
[1](
[pickup_location_name] => Seoul 1
[dropoff_location_name] => Disneyland 1
[car_make] => makecar
)
Array
[2](
[pickup_location_name] => Seoul 2
[dropoff_location_name] => Disneyland 2
[car_make] => makecar
)
... upto 7

Answer 1

Every time you looping the key of the array is always the same that's why you are getting overide the results. You need to put a key that is unique. You can try this
$i = 0; //First key
foreach ($result as $key){
$supplier_dashboard[$i]['pickup_location_name'] = $pickup_location->name_en;
$i++; //add +1 to the key so the next element not overrides
}

Answer 2

You have to add $key to array in which your record get added
use
$supplier_dashboard[$key]['pickup_location_name'] = //your code
instead of
$supplier_dashboard['pickup_location_name'] = //your code

Answer 3

Instead of adding the items the your array, you are directly setting the value in the top most collection.
Instad of
$myobject['foo'] = $value;
You need to do (where $iteration is the current position in your loop)
$myobject[$iteration]['foo'] = $value;
Try the following :
$carItemNumber = 0;
foreach ($result as $key) {
$pickup_location = $key->locationid;
if (isset($pickup_location)) {
$pickup_location = $this->db->get_where('locations', array('id' => $pickup_location ))->row();
if (!empty($pickup_location)) {
$supplier_dashboard[$carItemNumber]['pickup_location_name'] = $pickup_location->name_en;
}
}
$dropoff_location = $key->location_dropoff;
if (isset($dropoff_location)) {
$dropoff_location = $this->db->get_where('locations', array('id' => $dropoff_location ))->row();
if (!empty($dropoff_location)) {
$supplier_dashboard[$carItemNumber]['dropoff_location_name'] = $dropoff_location->name_en;
}
}
$car_make = $key->car_id;
if (isset($car_make)) {
$car_details = $this->db->get_where('chauffeur_rates', array('chauffeur_id' => $car_make))->row();
if (!empty($car_details)) {
$supplier_dashboard[$carItemNumber]['car_make'] = $car_details->chauffeur_make;
}
}
$carItemNumber++;
}
return $supplier_dashboard;
