I have the json response like this from fetching via URL, using json_decode.
function get_data($url)
{
$ch = curl_init();
$timeout = 3;
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT,$timeout);
$data = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
return $data;
}
$domain = "http://localhost:3000/";
$getcontent = get_data($domain);
$data = json_decode($getcontent, true);
After fetched, the response is:
{"Data":{"Players":"2,621","Kills":"87","Medals":"908","Cards":"324","TimePlayed":"88hours","GamesWon":"328","ObjectiveTime":"05:25:02"}}
I would like to remove Data object to be just the response body in PHP.
I have tried: $data[0]['Players']; but it is not looking through the json data body.
$players = $data[0]['Players'];
So I display it as:
echo 'Players: ' . $players . ';
Note: Sometimes that Data will always changed dynamic like Responses, Players, PlayerName, Date.
Can I use $data['. $playername . ']["Player"]; ?
If you don't know the key you can use key() function of PHP. Whatever the value of your first key you can access it like this.
Try this code demo
<?php
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
$string='{"Data":{"Players":"2,621","Kills":"87","Medals":"908","Cards":"324","TimePlayed":"88hours","GamesWon":"328","ObjectiveTime":"05:25:02"}}';
$array=json_decode($string,true);
print_r($array[key($array)]["Players"]);
Solution 2: Try this code snippet here
<?php
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
$string='{"Data":{"Players":"2,621","Kills":"87","Medals":"908","Cards":"324","TimePlayed":"88hours","GamesWon":"328","ObjectiveTime":"05:25:02"}}';
$array=json_decode($string,true);
extract($array[key($array)]);
echo $Players;
echo $Kills;
echo $Medals;
echo $Cards;
echo $TimePlayed;
echo $GamesWon;
echo $ObjectiveTime;
Whole code:
<?php
ini_set('display_errors', 1);
function get_data($url)
{
$ch = curl_init();
$timeout = 3;
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$url);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT,$timeout);
$data = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
return $data;
}
$domain = "http://localhost:3000/";
$getcontent = get_data($url);
$data = json_decode($getcontent, true);
print_r($data[key($data)]["Players"]);
I am using two JSON feed sources and PHP to display a real estate property slideshow with agents on a website. The code was working prior to the feed provider making changes to where they store property and agent images. I have made the necessary adjustments for the images, but the feed data is not working now. I have contacted the feed providers about the issue, but they say the problem is on my end. No changes beyond the image URLs were made, so I am unsure where the issue may be. I am new to JSON, so I might be missing something. I have included the full script below. Here are the two JSON feed URLs: http://century21.ca/FeaturedDataHandler.c?DataType=4&EntityType=2&EntityID=2119 and http://century21.ca/FeaturedDataHandler.c?DataType=3&AgentID=27830&RotationType=1. The first URL grabs all of the agents and the second grabs a single agent's properties. The AgentID value is sourced from the JSON feed URL dynamically.

Try this code to fix the JSON:

$invalid_json = file_get_contents($url);
$json = preg_replace("/([{,])([a-zA-Z][^: ]+):/", "$1\"$2\":", $invalid_json);
var_dump($json);
All your keys need to be double-quoted
JSON on the second URL is not a valid JSON, that's why you're not getting the reults, as PHP unable to decode that feed.
I tried to process it, and get this error
Error: Parse error on line 1:
{Props: [{Address:"28
-^
Expecting 'STRING', '}'
Feed image for first URL
and here is view of 2nd URL's feed
as per error for second feed, all the keys should be wrapped within " as these are strings rather than CONSTANTS.
e.g.
Props should be "Props" and all other too.
EDIT
You need to update your functionand add this one(formatJSON($json)) to your class
// Update this function, just need to update last line of function
function getProperties($agent_id)

}
//add this function to class. This will format json

return str_ireplace($from, $to, $json); //returns the clean JSON
}
EDIT
I've tested that function, and it's working fine, may be there is something wrong with your function decode_json_string($json)
I've taken unclean json from second URL, and cleaning it here, and putting that cleaned json in json editor to check either it's working or not HERE
I would like to do parse XML for the url:
http://www.opencellid.org/cell/get?key=myapikey&mcc=250&mnc=99&cellid=29513&lac=0
I am the beginner of PHP and tried the code as below:
$url = "http://www.opencellid.org/cell/get?key=myapikey&mcc=250&mnc=99&cellid=29513&lac=0";
$xml = simplexml_load_file($url) or die("feed not loading");
print_r($xml);
var_dump($xml);
I would like to do echo for each attribute e.g. lat, lon, range.. for this XML url.
I found many resource in stackoverflow which the XML is quite standard. I cannot find an example which is used for this format of XML:
Anyone could give me an idea? Thanks.
$url = "http://www.opencellid.org/cell/get?key=myapikey&mcc=250&mnc=99&cellid=29513&lac=0";
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$data = curl_exec($ch);
$status = curl_getinfo($ch,CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
curl_close($ch);
if($status==200){
$x = new SimpleXMLElement($data,LIBXML_NOCDATA);
echo 'lat: '.$x->cell['lat'];
echo 'lon: '.$x->cell['lon'];
echo 'range: '.$x->cell['range'];
}
Update:
This is an alternative to curl. If you have curl installed, use curl, it is faster.
$url = "http://www.opencellid.org/cell/get?key=myapikey&mcc=250&mnc=99&cellid=29513&lac=0";
$data = file_get_contents($url);
$x = new SimpleXMLElement($data,LIBXML_NOCDATA);
$lat = $x->cell['lat'];
$lng = $x->cell['lon'];
$range = $x->cell['range'];
echo 'lat: '.$lat.'<br>';
echo 'lng: '.$lng.'<br>';
echo 'range: '.$range.'<br>';
Please try this
$content = file_get_contents('http://www.opencellid.org/cell/get?key=myapikey&mcc=250&mnc=99&cellid=29513&lac=0');
$x = new SimpleXmlElement($content);
foreach($x->cell as $entry) {
echo $entry['lat']."==".$entry['lon']; exit;
}
$url = "http://www.opencellid.org/cell/get?key=myapikey&mcc=250&mnc=99&cellid=29513&lac=0";
$xml = simplexml_load_file($url) or die("feed not loading");
$attr = array("lat", "lon"); //list attr you require
foreach($xml->cell as $cell){
$data = $cell->attributes();
foreach ($attr as $key) {
// echo "<br>key: $key, value: " . $data[$key];
//edit to insert
$columns[] = $key;
$values[] = $data[$key];
}
echo $query = "insert into table_name(".implode(',',$columns).") values (".implode(',',$values).")";

I am trying to incorporate my pin feed into my site. I have got it working but I need to amend what it shows as it's not quite working as intended.
What I need is to extract a certain piece of data from the description bit of the date.
This is the code I use to grab my XML feed:
<?php
$ch = curl_init("http://pinterest.com/1234/feed.rss");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
$data = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$doc = new SimpleXmlElement($data, LIBXML_NOCDATA);
if(isset($doc->channel))
{
parseRSS($doc);
}
function parseRSS($xml)
{
$cnt = 9;
for($i=0; $i<$cnt; $i++)
{
$url = $xml->channel->item[$i]->link;
$img = $xml->channel->item[$i]->description;
$title = $xml->channel->item[$i]->title;
echo '<p>'.$img.'</p>';
}
}
?>
The problem is that description looks like below and all I want is the src value from it:
<description><p><a href="/pin/1785432765530/"><img src="http://media-cache-ec1.pinterest.com/upload/27099622222548513383_qJV62266Pf_b.jpg"></a></p><p>What it takes to Google’s.</p></description>
Is there a way to just get src="http://media-cache-ec1.pinterest.com/upload/270996666522513383_qJV6666Pf_b.jpg" out of the description and store it in $img or another variable?
html_entity_decode and Simple HTML DOM parser could solve your problem.
(http://stackoverflow.com/questions/138313/how-to-extract-img-src-title-and-alt-from-html-using-php)
Some RegExp would help you (PHP Manual, Wikipedia)
eg.: .*(src=".*[^"]").*
thanks all i used
$cnt = 9;
for($i=0; $i<$cnt; $i++)
{
$url = $xml->channel->item[$i]->link;
$img = $xml->channel->item[$i]->description;
$title = $xml->channel->item[$i]->title;
$pattern = '/src="([^"]*)"/';
preg_match($pattern, $img, $matches);
$src = $matches[0];
unset($matches);
//echo $src;
echo '<p><img '.$src.'</img></p>';
}
}
?>
thanks for the tips
I am trying to count the number of tweets with a given a hashtag using PHP.
This piece of source code was given by someone on StackOverflow.
Do I need to add any libraries or change any settings for the function to work?
because when I run this code, it just gives me a blank page.
<?php
global $total, $hashtag;
//$hashtag = '#supportvisitbogor2011';
$hashtag = '#australialovesjustin';
$total = 0;
function getTweets($hash_tag, $page) {
global $total, $hashtag;
$url = 'http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q='.urlencode($hash_tag).'&';
$url .= 'page='.$page;
$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
$json = curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
//echo "<pre>";
//$json_decode = json_decode($json);
//print_r($json_decode->results);
$json_decode = json_decode($json);
$total += count($json_decode->results);
if($json_decode->next_page){
$temp = explode("&",$json_decode->next_page);
$p = explode("=",$temp[0]);
getTweets($hashtag,$p[1]);
}
}
getTweets($hashtag,1);
echo $total;
?>
