I am decoding a json record in php, here is the structure :
{relations":[], "entity":
{"ide":1045, "status":"normal"}
}
Then my php code is :
$result = json_decode($json, true);
How to reach "ide" and "status" values from the array $result ?
Thanks a lot
Since you specified in json_decode that you want to have an associative array you can echo your data like this:
echo $result['entity']['ide'];
echo $result['entity']['status'];
With the second value set to true, your variables are in an array and so:
$result['entity']['ide'];
$result['entity']['status'];
If you miss out the true argument, your values would be in an object:
$result->entity->ide;
$result->entity->status;

below is my 'script.json' file with json array and i want the values of webUserid and webPassword
{
"totalSize":2,
"webUserId":"abc",
"webPassword":"def",
"operation":"send",
"testMode":true,
"records":[
{
"phoneNumber":"1908908399",
"message":"Happy Birthday",
"Id":"a0YL0000008QYunMAG",
"deviceId":"ABCDEFXABCDEF"
}
]
}
I tried below one but not getting the result
<?php
$jsonString=file_get_contents("script.json");
$decoded=json_decode($jsonString,true);
foreach($decoded->data as $name){
echo $name->totalSize;
}
?>
Zarif, try the below code, its working 100%......... :)
<?php
$jsonString=file_get_contents("script.json");
$decoded=array(json_decode($jsonString,true));
foreach($decoded as $name){
echo $name['totalSize'];
}
?>
There's no need for a foreach loop in your current example, as you only have one level.
Your main problem is you're trying to use the result of your json_decode as an object when you've previously stated you want the result as an associative array.
The 2nd param of json_decode specifies what format the return value is in, so as you've done
$decoded = json_decode($jsonString, true);
you'll receive an array, which you could access like
echo $decoded['totalSize'];
if you wanted to treat it as on object as you've done in your question, either state false or omit a 2nd param in json_decode (it's false by default anyway), and that'll let you do what you're trying to do:
$decoded = json_decode($jsonString);
$decoded->totalSize;
lets say that
$myJSON = yourPostedJSON.
$myJSON = json_decode($myJSON, true);
echo $myJSON['webUserId'];
echo $myJSON['webPassword'];
I'm writing a simple PHP script that makes an API call that returns JSON. However, I'm having trouble figuring out how to take that JSON string, convert it into a dictionary, and access nested dictionaries/data within it.
Here's what I have so far:
<?php
$id = $_REQUEST['id'];
$url = http://exampleURLThatReturnsJSONString.com
$rawData = file_get_contents($url);
I've read that you should use something like $decodedData = json_decode($rawData)
, but I'm not sure what to do next, especially if I want to access nested dictionaries with a key like Schedule.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
json_decode($json, $assoc = false) converts the json string into an object by default, or into an array if you specify $assoc = true
If you have $assoc = false then you must access the values by $decoded_data->key. Whereas if you have $assoc = true then you can do $decoded_data['key']
You can just access the decoded data like this:
echo $decodedData['key'];
This wil echo the value of the item in the dictionary with key 'key'. Nested values can be accessed like this:
echo $decodedData['key1']['key2']['...'];
You can always use var_dump to show what's inside the result. Also, read the documentation on json_decode for more information.
json_decode return array or object to which access is like to array.
http://php.net/manual/en/function.json-decode.php
I'm trying to decode the following JSON using php json_decode function.
[{"total_count":17}]
I think the square brackets in output is preventing it. How do I get around that? I can't control the output because it is coming from Facebook FQL query:
https://api.facebook.com/method/fql.query?format=json&query=SELECT%20total_count%20FROM%20link_stat%20WHERE%20url=%22http://www.apple.com%22
PHP's json_decode returns an instance of stdClass by default.
For you, it's probably easier to deal with array. You can force PHP to return arrays, as a second parameter to json_decode:
$var = json_decode('[{"total_count":17}]', true);
After that, you can access the variable as $result[0]['total_count']
See this JS fiddle for an example of how to read it:
http://jsfiddle.net/8V4qP/1
It's basically the same code for PHP, except you need to pass true as your second argument to json_decode to tell php you want to use it as associative arrays instead of actual objects:
<?php
$result = json_decode('[{"total_count":17}]', true);
print $result[0]['total_count'];
?>
if you don't pass true, you would have to access it like this: $result[0]->total_count because it is an array containing an object, not an array containing an array.
$json = "[{\"total_count\":17}]";
$arr = Jason_decode($json);
foreach ($arr as $obj) {
echo $obj->total_count . "<br>";
}
Or use json_decode($json, true) if you want associative arrays instead of objects.
My JSON looks like this. How do I get a specific field, e.g. "title" or "url"?
{
"status":1,
"list":
{
"204216523":
{"item_id":"204216523",
"title":"title1",
"url":"url1",
},
"203886655":
{"item_id":"203886655",
"title":"titl2",
"url":"url2",
}
},"since":1344188496,
"complete":1
}
I know $result = json_decode($input, true); should be used to get parsable data in $result, but how do I get individual fields out of $result? I need to run through all the members (2 in this case) and get a field out of it.
json_decode() converts JSON data into an associative array. So to get title & url out of your data,
foreach ($result['list'] as $key => $value) {
echo $value['title'].','.$value['url'];
}
echo $result['list']['204216523']['item_id']; // prints 204216523
json_decode() translates your JSON data into an array. Treat it as an associative array because that's what it is.
I am using a API to get some data from curl. Response i get is like:
{
"abc": 123,
"zxc": 122339900,
"cui": "usd",
"cumer": "wXl3tAPXCM",
"fee": 0,
"live": false,
"object": "test",
"paid": true,
"sss": {
"qwe": "4242",
"wer": "sss",
"mkm": "isa"
}
}
In which form it is ? how can i parse it to get same values in an array for the further process?
Any idea will be appreciated.
$new = json_decode($returnData);
This is a json, which can be converted into PHP array by the function json_decode
if the response is JSON you can use:
json_decode($response, true);
the second parameter forces the result to be an associative array.
php.net documentation
The response is in JSON
It's becoming the standard for transferring data from one machine to other because it is bandwidth friendly and language independent.
To translate the JSON into PHP array you can use PHP's native json_decode
$new = json_decode($returnData, TRUE);
Just be sure to give last param TRUE or you will get PHP Object instead of array.
This is a json string. You have to decode like below & you will get an array.
$your_array = json_decode($your_String);
The data is in 'JSON' format and you should have to use json_decode() function to decode the data..
This response is json. Use json_decode e.g.
$myarray = json_decode ($response, True);
Where the second argument True tells the function to produce an associative array.
