Intersect (inner join) two arrays with different key names - php

Question

I have following two multidimensional arrays:
First array:
$array_1_data = Array (
[0] => Array ( [id] => 1 [name] => IT [slug] => it )
[1] => Array ( [id] => 2 [name] => Accounting [slug] => accounting )
)
Second array:
$array_2_data = Array (
[0] => Array ( [cid] => 3 [jid] => 24061 )
[1] => Array ( [cid] => 1 [jid] => 24062 )
)
Expected result:
$some_array = Array (
[0] => Array ( [id] => 1 [name] => IT [slug] => it )
)
I won't mind having [cid] in the result.
I want to intersect these two arrays by [id] of the first array and [cid] of the second array, like inner join in MySQL. I have basic foreach and if else logic for this purpose but speed is a priority now so I'm looking for non-looped solution. For better understanding here is the basic looped solution:
foreach ($array_1_data as $array_1_row ) {
foreach ($array_2_data as $array_2_row ) {
if ($array_2_row['cid'] == $array_1_row['id']) {
//intersection iteration
}
}
}
I tried array_uintersection as follows:
array_uintersect($array_1_data, $array_2_data, function($a1, $a2){
$diff1 = strcasecmp($a1['id'], $a2['cid']);
if ($diff1 != 0) return $diff1;
return 0;
});
But it gives me undefined index 'id'. I checked this question: Comparing two arrays with different key names. First answer for this question gives a looped solution which I want to avoid. Second answer suggests changing SQL structure but I have no control over that. So,
Is there really a non-looped fast solution to this kind of situation?

Answer 1

The solution using array_uintersect_uassoc function:
$result = array_uintersect_uassoc($array_1_data, $array_2_data, function($a, $b){
return strcasecmp($a['id'], $b['cid']);
}, function($a, $b){
return (int) [$a, $b] == ['id', 'cid'];
});
print_r($result);
The output:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 1
[name] => IT
[slug] => it
)
)
According yo your condition: to intersect these two arrays by [id] of the first array and [cid] of the second array, we should consider a key comparison function for those keys only ['id', 'cid'].
Having the needed keys on each comparison step it only remain to compare their values(with value compare function)
