Using PHP, how would I access the inner array values, specific to this example the values specific to each game array, from a json feed similar to this:
Array
(
[startIndex] => 3
[refreshInterval] => 60
[games] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 2013020004
[gs] => 5
[ts] => WEDNESDAY 10/2
[tsc] => final
[bs] => FINAL
[bsc] => final
)
[1] => Array
(
[id] => 2013020005
[gs] => 5
[ts] => WEDNESDAY 10/2
[tsc] => final
[bs] => FINAL
[bsc] =>
)
I have tried nesting a foreach loop inside a foreach loop similar to this:
foreach ($json as $key => $jsons) {
foreach ($jsons as $my => $value) {
echo $value;
}
}
If that is an array you are looking at then you can reach the values
foreach($json["games"] as $game) {
foreach ($game as $key => $value) {
echo $value;
}
}
This should give you the values within each array in the games section.
EDIT: to answer additional question in comment
To get the specific values of the game like the id, the second foreach loop will not be needed. Instead do the following:
foreach($json["games"] as $game) {
echo $game['id'];
}
You just access it as an associative array.
$json['games'][0]['id'] // This is 2013020004
$json['games'][1]['id'] // This is 2013020005
You can loop through the games like so:
foreach($json['games'] as $game){
print_r($game);
}
If you are trying to access this,
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 2013020004
[gs] => 5
[ts] => WEDNESDAY 10/2
[tsc] => final
[bs] => FINAL
[bsc] => final
)
[1] => Array
(
[id] => 2013020005
[gs] => 5
[ts] => WEDNESDAY 10/2
[tsc] => final
[bs] => FINAL
[bsc] =>
)
..then you are doing it right. The only problem is you are trying to echo an array. Trying using print_r($value). If you want a specific value, like the id. You can echo $value['id'];
I think you could use one of the many example of recursive array_key_search. This way you could simply do :
$firstGame = array_search_key(0, $array);
$firstGameId = $firstGame["id"];

I need to display a certain object from an array before showing the rest of the array.
The array looks like this:
Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
(
[template_id] => 91
[template_name] => Alphabet
[template_thumbnail] => blank-template-thumbnail.jpg
[template_create_date] => 1456821665
[template_customer_id] => 0
[template_is_responsive] => no
[template_type] => builder
[template_category] => simple
[sort] => 2
)
[1] => stdClass Object
(
[template_id] => 92
[template_name] => Blank Template
[template_thumbnail] => blank-template-thumbnail.jpg
[template_create_date] => 1456821670
[template_customer_id] => 0
[template_is_responsive] => no
[template_type] => builder
[template_category] => simple
[sort] => 2
)
[2] => stdClass Object
(
[template_id] => 31
[template_name] => Holiday Specials
[template_thumbnail] => accommodation-1-20110926.jpg
[template_create_date] => 1456821660
[template_customer_id] => 0
[template_is_responsive] => no
[template_type] => builder
[template_category] => Accommodation
[sort] => 3
)
)
I need to show Blank Template first and then show the rest alphabetically (the order it is in now.
Is there a more elegant solution than looping through the array twice? The size of the array can be anything from 1 (the blank template) to countless objects.
$str="";
for($i=0;$i<=count($arr);$i++){
if($arr[$i]['template_name'] == "Blank Template"){
echo $arr[$i]['template_name'];
}else{
$str .= $arr[$i]['template_name']. "<br>";
}
}
echo $str;
Try this:
$firstItem = null;
$outArray = [];
foreach($yourArray as $item){
if($item->template_name == 'Blank Template'){
$firstItem = $item;
}else{
$outArray[$item->template_name] = $item;
}
}
ksort($outArray,SORT_STRING);
array_unshift($outArray,$firstItem);
Just one loop. Pay attention that this way of doing things, just work if you have uniqueness on the template_name!
Hope it helps.
This will work for you, try
<?php
$dataArray = array(0=>array('template_id'=>91,'template_name'=>'Alphabet'),
1=>array('template_id'=>92,'template_name'=>'Blank Template'),
2=>array('template_id'=>31,'template_name'=>'Holiday Specials')
);
$newArray = array();
foreach($dataArray as $key => $val)
{
if(in_array('Blank Template',$val))///find the key for black template
{
unset($dataArray[$key]); ///unset black temp from original array
$newArray[] = $val;///push black temp into new array at 0 index
foreach($dataArray as $k => $v)
{
$newArray[] = $v; ///push the renaming values into new array
}
}
}
echo "<pre>"; print_r($newArray);
?>
This will give you :
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[template_id] => 92
[template_name] => Blank Template
)
[1] => Array
(
[template_id] => 91
[template_name] => Alphabet
)
[2] => Array
(
[template_id] => 31
[template_name] => Holiday Specials
)
)

I am needing to echo out the [number], but as you can see each array has a different parent [], how do I by pass the first one and get go to the [number]?
I basically need to skip over first [], and go to the second on that is [number]
Array
(
[e2a4789d22ff47779722b8d8643894cd] => Array
(
[type] => workphone
[visibility] => public
[number] => 999-999-9999
[id] => 2
[order] => 0
[preferred] => 1
)
)
Array
(
[1603ebeff250437480f5ce046cac36aa] => Array
(
[type] => workphone
[visibility] => public
[number] => 999-999-9999
[id] => 3
[order] => 0
[preferred] => 1
)
)
Array
(
[215590630122] => Array

[number] => 999-999-9999
[order] => 0
[preferred] =>
)
)
Your solution for this is using the foreach-loop. Which gives you then the value of the element as variable you tell PHP to assign to.
foreach($array as $element) {
}
You have to use reset function to get the first element of array.
e.g.
$firstElement = reset($arr);
echo $firstElement['number'];
You can just loop over the elements in the array(s) using foreach.
foreach($data as $ele){
foreach($ele as $id=>$val){
echo $val['number'];
}
}
Just an example
$array = $yourarray;
foreach($array as $k=>$v) {
echo $v['number'] . '<br>';
}
hope this helps...
The first bracket is just a unique key index foreach subsequent set of data. for example you can get the first set by accessing through the key like this
$data['e2a4789d22ff47779722b8d8643894cd']
// will return
Array
(
[type] => workphone
[visibility] => public
[number] => 999-999-9999
[id] => 2
[order] => 0
[preferred] => 1
)
loop through the array to access the data you want,
// declare your array if you want to save data in array
$numbers = [];
foreach($data $key =>$value){
// echo just the number
echo $value['number'];
// echo the key and number
echo $key.' '.$value;
// or you can build an array
$numbers[$key] = $value['number'];
}
print_r($numbers);
Hope you find this useful, for more info about arrays take a look at this http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.array.php
foreach ($array as $id => $element)
{
// will echo 999-999-9999
echo $element['number'];
}
$array is the whole data structure. We go through as index, that is the $id, which is for example e2a4789d22ff47779722b8d8643894cd and the $element is the element in the $array[$id] so in the $array[e2a4789d22ff47779722b8d8643894cd]
So the $element is the small array in the large array, and it contains data like:
Array
(
[type] => workphone
[visibility] => public
[number] => 999-999-9999
[id] => 2
[order] => 0
[preferred] => 1
)
So if you need the number attribute, you type $element['number'] and you get it.
If your variable was in an array called $elements then it would look like:
$elements['e2a4789d22ff47779722b8d8643894cd']['number']
I have array like this. This array is created dynamically
Array
(
[Data NotUploading] => Array
(
[items] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[date] => 2013-04-02
[issue_id] => 1
[phone_service_device] => A
[phone_service_model] =>
[phone_service_os] =>
[phone_service_version] =>
[issue_name] => Data NotUploading
)
[1] => Array
(
[date] => 2013-04-02
[issue_id] => 1
[phone_service_device] => I
[phone_service_model] =>
[phone_service_os] =>
[phone_service_version] =>
[issue_name] => Data NotUploading
)
)
)
[Battery Problem] => Array
(
[items] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[date] => 2013-04-03
[issue_id] => 3
[phone_service_device] => I
[phone_service_model] =>
[phone_service_os] =>
[phone_service_version] =>
[issue_name] => Battery Problem
)
)
)
)
What I need to do is to use 2 foreach or 1 foreach & 1 for loop so that I can get each value of date I did like this
foreach($gResultbyName as $key1 => $rec){
for($j = 0;$j<count($rec);$j++ ){
echo $rec['items'][$j]['date'];
}
}
but its only retrieving 2013-04-02 & 2013-04-03 that is 0 index date of data NotUploading & 0 index date of Battery Problem. Basically I need to compare each value and others stuff but I just cant get each date value.
Forgive me for ignorance but I tried a lot :(
try this:
foreach ($data as $d)
{
foreach($d['items'] as $item)
{
echo $item['date'];
}
}
Your for-loop loops count($rec) times, but should count($rec['items']).
This should load the dates into an array sorted by the issue_name. The you can step through them for further processing.
$dates= array();
foreach ($gResultbyName AS $events){
foreach ($events['items'] AS $item){
$dates[$item['issue_name']][] = $item['date'];
}
}
var_dump($dates);
This is my first question here so i dont exactly know the normal style.
I have a problem with multiple arrays. My arrays are sorted this way:
Array
(
[count] => 2
[gebruikerData] => Array
(
[gebruiker1] => Array
(
[merken] => Array
(
[0] => merk1
[1] => merk10
[2] => merk19
)
[loginnaam] => testfasdfasd
[geslacht] => Man
[persoonlijkheidsType] => TEST
[beschrijving] => fasdfasdfasd
[gebruikerID] => 19
[leeftijd] => 21
)
[gebruiker2] => Array
(
[merken] => Array
(
[0] => merk1
[1] => merk9
[2] => merk36
)
[loginnaam] => test1233
[geslacht] => Man
[persoonlijkheidsType] => TEST
[beschrijving] => safasfd
[gebruikerID] => 20
[leeftijd] => 21
)
)
)
I need to retrieve all the information in this array. There can be as many fields gebruiker(number) as the database output, so i tried to use multiple foreach loops in eachother. My problem is that it is not possible to use the key from one foreach loop as index in another foreach loop like this:
foreach ($gebruikerData as $key => $value)
{
foreach ($key as $key2 => $value2)
{
echo $key2;
}
}
Does anyone have another idea how i could retrieve the information from the array? Or is if could use my own way with a slight change?
Try like this
foreach ($gebruikerData as $key => $value)
{
if(is_array($key))
{
foreach ($key as $key2 => $value2)
{
if(is_array($key2))
{
foreach($key2 as $key3=>$value3)
echo $key3.'-'.$value3;
}
else
echo $key2.'-'.$value2;
}
}
else
echo $key.'-'.$value;
}
Check for the $key is "array or not" each time,if it is array then it will fo to for loop orelse it will echo it directly
I've "inherited" some data, which I'm trying to clean up. The array is from a database which, apparently, had no keys.
The array itself, is pretty long, so I'm simplifying things for this post...
[0] => Array
(
[id] => 2
[uid] => 130
[eid] => 8
[ename] => Standard
[eaction] => Check
)
[1] => Array
(
[id] => 2
[uid] => 110
[eid] => 8
[ename] => Standard
[eaction] => Check
)
[2] => Array
(
[id] => 2
[uid] => 200
[eid] => 8
[ename] => Standard
[eaction] => Check
)
I'm trying to shift things around so the array is multidimensional and is grouped by ename:
[0] => Array
(
[Standard] => Array
(
[id] => 2
[uid] => 130
[eid] => 8
[eaction] => Check
)
)
[0] => Array
(
[Standard] => Array
(
[id] => 2
[uid] => 130
[eid] => 8
[eaction] => Check
)
)
[0] => Array
(
[Standard] => Array
(
[id] => 2
[uid] => 130
[eid] => 8
[eaction] => Check
)
)
Anyone know how to do something like this?
You can use usort() to sort an array by a user-defined function. That function could compare the ename fields. Then it's just a simple transformation. Like:
usort($array, 'cmp_ename');
function cmp_ename($a, $b) {
return strcmp($a['ename'], $b['ename']);
}
and then:
$output = array();
foreach ($array as $v) {
$ename = $v['ename'];
unset($v['ename']);
$output[] = array($ename => $v);
}
$outputarray = array();
foreach($inputarray as $value) {
$outputarray[] = array($value['ename'] => $value);
}
would accomplish what your examples seem to indicate (aside from the fact that your 'result' example has multiple things all with key 0... which isn't valid. I'm assuming you meant to number them 0,1,2 et cetera). However, I have to wonder what benefit you're getting from this, since all it appears to be doing is adding another dimension that serves no purpose. Perhaps you could clarify your example if there are other things to take into account?
$outputarray = array();
foreach($inputarray as &$value) {
$outputarray[][$value['ename']] = $value;
unset($value['ename']);
} unset($value);
I'm guessing that this is what you're asking for:
function array_group_by($input, $field) {
$out = array();
foreach ($input as $row) {
if (!isset($out[$row[$field]])) {
$out[$row[$field]] = array();
}
$out[$row[$field]][] = $row;
}
return $out;
}
And usage:
var_dump(array_group_by($input, 'ename'));
philfreo was right but he was also off a little. with his code every time you encounter an array element with an ['ename'] the same as one you've already gone through it will overwrite the data from the previous element with the same ['ename']
you might want to do something like this:
$output = array();
foreach ($YOURARRAY as $value) {
$output[$value['ename']][] = $value;
}
var_dump($output); // to check out what you get
