I am having trouble parsing this data set that I have posted at pastebin here http://pastebin.com/TmZGw92j
I can step into it as far as routings but then can not go any further for some reason. Here are my vars that I have set up:
$airTicketListResponse = $result->body->airTicketListResponse;
$routings = $airTicketListResponse->routings;
$trips = $routings->trips;
$segments = $trips->segments;
I can print_r($routings) but when I try to print_r($segments) I get nothing returned. I would like to pull items from routings and segments.
here is my current foreach loop that craps out at trips.
foreach($routings as $item){
echo '<span style="font-weight:bold;">Airline - '.$item->mainAirlineName.' Price - '.$item->adultBasePrice.'</span><br />'.$item->trips->segments->departureAirportCode.' '.$item->trips->segments->departureTime.'<br /><br />';
}
The trips and segments elements are arrays of objects, not a single object.
So you need to reference the array element [0] which part of the structure.
$trips = $routings[0]->trips;
$segments = $trips[0]->segments;
Note, that there appear to be two trips, you'll also need $trips[1]->segments if you want all the segments.
More likely, you'll be wanting to use foreach() loops to read them, rather than directly referencing the array keys.
Something like this?
foreach($routings as $routing) {
$trips = $routing->trips;
.... do something here with $trips? ....
foreach($trips as $trip) {
$segments = $trip->segments;
.... do something here with $segments? ....
}
}
You have a few layers of arrays nested in there. I think your code needs to change to this:
$trips = $routings[0]->trips;
$segments = $trips[0]->segments;

Any idea on how to restructure the json below:
$jsonArray = [{"Level":"77.2023%","Product":"Milk","Temperature":"4"},
{"Level":"399.2023%","Product":"Coffee","Temperature":"34"},
{"Level":"109.2023%","Product":"Chocolate","Temperature":"14"}]
Expected outcome:
$expected = {"Milk":{"Level":"77.2023%","Temperature":"4"},
"Coffee":{"Level":"399.2023%","Temperature":"34"},
"Chocolate":{"Level":"109.2023%","Temperature":"14"}
}
I'm new and my thinking is get the product value in array and again use foreach loop to find the others value? .
Here's one possibility:
$jsonArray = '[{"Level":"77.2023%","Product":"Milk","Temperature":"4"},
{"Level":"399.2023%","Product":"Coffee","Temperature":"34"},
{"Level":"109.2023%","Product":"Chocolate","Temperature":"14"}]';
$output = array();
foreach (json_decode($jsonArray, true) as $row) {
$product = $row['Product'];
$output[$product] = $row;
unset($output[$product]['Product']);
}
echo json_encode($output);
Output:
{"Milk":{"Level":"77.2023%","Temperature":"4"},
"Coffee":{"Level":"399.2023%","Temperature":"34"},
"Chocolate":{"Level":"109.2023%","Temperature":"14"}
}
Demo on 3v4l.org
This made some trick
$a = '[{"Level":"77.2023%","Product":"Milk","Temperature":"4"},
{"Level":"399.2023%","Product":"Coffee","Temperature":"34"},
{"Level":"109.2023%","Product":"Chocolate","Temperature":"14"}]';
$newAr = array();
foreach(json_decode($a,true) as $key=>$value)
{
$newAr[$value['Product']] = array(
'Level' => $value['Level'],
'Temperature' => $value['Temperature'],
);
}
There are many ways to perform this with Loops in PHP. Other answers demonstrate it accurately. I would also suggest to integrate some form of Error handling, data validation/filtering/restriction in your code to avoid unexpected results down the road.
For instance, json_decode(), either assigned to a variable pre-foreach or straight in the foreach() 1st argument will just raise a warning if the original json is not valid-json, and just skip over the foreach used to construct your final goal. Then if you pass the result (that may have failed) directly to your next logic construct, it could create some iffy-behavior.
Also, on the concept of data-validation & filtering, you could restrict the foreach(), or any other looping mechanism, to check against a Product_List_Array[Milk,Coffee,Chocolate], using if(in_array() ...) so the final/goal object only contains the expected Products, this, in the case the original json has other artifacts. Filtering the values can also increase stability in restricting, for example, Temperature to Float.
Alright, So I'm redoing my question so people can understand what I'm trying to do.
Search.php
<?php
$getItems = file_get_contents('Items.json');
if(isset($_GET['searchVal'])){
$getItems2 = json_decode($getItems, true);
$data2 = array("items" => array(array()));
foreach($getItems2['items'] as $data){
if(strpos($data['name'], $_GET['searchVal'])){
$data2 = array("items" => array(array($data)));
}
}
echo json_encode($data2,JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES);
} else{
echo $getItems;
}
Problem: Doesn't get all items which have that name, gets only one.
Search is done, now I have to fix somehow to get all items which match the name. How could I do that?
You have the following inside a loop:
$data2 = array(...)
...and then you reference $data2 outside the loop.
Of course, it will only contain the last entry, because that line is overwriting $data2 with new data each time the loop iterates.
If you want to keep all the records from the loop, use
$data2[] = array(...)
instead.
[EDIT]
Further guessing as to what you actually want your JSON to look like, I guess you want all the records to be in the items array?
So in that case, let's rewrite your $data2 line, as follows:
$data2['items'][] = array($data);
This will add all the data arrays to your items array in $data2. I will note that your array structure is really convoluted -- too many nested arrays, which makes it difficult to be sure I'm giving you the answer you want even now, but hopefully if it isn't exactly right, it will show you the direction you need to go.
You'll also want to have an additional line at the top of your code to initialise $data2, like this:
$data2 = array('items'=>array());
This should be somewhere at the top of the code, before $data2 is used, and outside of the loop.
If you have any array $p that you populated in a loop like so:
$p[] = array( "id"=>$id, "Name"=>$name);
What's the fastest way to search for John in the Name key, and if found, return the $p index? Is there a way other than looping through $p?
I have up to 5000 names to find in $p, and $p can also potentially contain 5000 rows. Currently I loop through $p looking for each name, and if found, parse it (and add it to another array), splice the row out of $p, and break 1, ready to start searching for the next of the 5000 names.
I was wondering if there if a faster way to get the index rather than looping through $p eg an isset type way?
Thanks for taking a look guys.
Okay so as I see this problem, you have unique ids, but the names may not be unique.
You could initialize the array as:
array($id=>$name);
And your searches can be like:
array_search($name,$arr);
This will work very well as native method of finding a needle in a haystack will have a better implementation than your own implementation.
e.g.
$id = 2;
$name= 'Sunny';
$arr = array($id=>$name);
echo array_search($name,$arr);
Echoes 2
The major advantage in this method would be code readability.
If you know that you are going to need to perform many of these types of search within the same request then you can create an index array from them. This will loop through the array once per index you need to create.
$piName = array();
foreach ($p as $k=>$v)
{
$piName[$v['Name']] = $k;
}
If you only need to perform one or two searches per page then consider moving the array into an external database, and creating the index there.
$index = 0;
$search_for = 'John';
$result = array_reduce($p, function($r, $v) use (&$index, $search_for) {
if($v['Name'] == $search_for) {
$r[] = $index;
}
++$index;
return $r;
});
$result will contain all the indices of elements in $p where the element with key Name had the value John. (This of course only works for an array that is indexed numerically beginning with 0 and has no “holes” in the index.)
Edit: Possibly even easier to just use array_filter, but that will not return the indices only, but all array element where Name equals John – but indices will be preserved:
$result2 = array_filter($p, function($elem) {
return $elem["Name"] == "John" ? true : false;
});
var_dump($result2);
What suits your needs better, resp. which one is maybe faster, is for you to figure out.
my returned json looks like this http://pastebin.com/Nbr161s3
I want to echo
body->airTicketListResponse->routings->mainAirlineName
body->airTicketListResponse->routings->adultBasePrice
body->airTicketListResponse->routings->trips->segments->departureAirportCode
body->airTicketListResponse->routings->trips->segments->departureTime //only the time here
body->airTicketListResponse->routings->trips->segments->duration
for each routings.
How do I do this? Here is what I have but I am lost and I know it is way off.
$result = data returned here http://pastebin.com/Nbr161s3
$airTicketListResponse = $result->body->airTicketListResponse;
$routings = $result->body->airTicketListResponse->routings;
$trips = $result->body->airTicketListResponse->routings->trips;
$segments = $result->body->airTicketListResponse->routings->trips->segments;
foreach($airTicketListResponse as $item){
$i=0;
$i<count($routings);
echo '<span style="font-weight:bold;">Airline - '.$item->routings[i]->mainAirlineName.' Price - '.$item->routings[i]->adultBasePrice.'</span><br />'.$item->routings[i]->trips[i]->segments[i]->departureAirportCode.' '.$item->routings[i]->trips[i]->segments[i]->departureTime.'<br /><br />';
$i++;
}
Please help if you can.
Before working with JSON you should be familiar with working with arrays and objects since JSON is nothing more than that.
It seems you already know these two concepts
To access an object property in PHP you use obj->property
To access a value of an array you specify the index inside brackets array[0]
With JSON you just have to keep in mind that some of your object properties will be arrays.
Now, since your data comes in a multi-level three-like structure you should also be familiar with traversing arrays, PHP offers an implementation of a foreach loop that is ideal for traversing dynamically generated arrays
using foreach($array as $index => $var) the $index and $var variables are automatically set to the index and value of each element in the array as they are being traversed, so you don't manually need to keep track of the index (i.e. $i)
Now let's start going through your data:
First we find your routings array
$result = json_decode($data);
$airTicketListResponse = $result->body->airTicketListResponse;
$routings = $airTicketListResponse->routings;
Now we use foreach to loop through every routing and print the needed properties
foreach($routings as $routing){ //$routing will hold the object value in each loop
echo 'Airline '.$routing->mainAirlineName.'<br>';
echo 'Adult Base Price '.$routing->adultBasePrice.'<br>';
}
Getting single properties like the above is pretty straight forward, but for the information of the segments we would first need a nested foreach since we have multiple trips for each routing and then a second nested foreach since each trip has multiple segments
foreach($routings as $routing){ //$routing will hold the object value in each loop
echo 'Airline '.$routing->mainAirlineName.'<br>';
echo 'Adult Base Price '.$routing->adultBasePrice.'<br>';
foreach($routing->trips as $trip){
foreach($trip->segments as $index => $segment){
echo 'Segment '.$index.':<br>'
echo 'Depart From '.$segment->departureAirportCode.'<br>';
echo 'Departure Time '.$segment->departureTime.'<br>';
echo 'Duration '.$segment->duration.'<br>';
}
}
}
And that would be it. I hope my explanation was clear and you got the idea of how to traverse JSON objects
If you feel more comfortable working with an array than with an object to access your data [which might be where you're getting confused here] then you can use json_decode with an additional argument:
$data = json_decode($result, true);
This will leave you with an array ($data) containing all your flight information, you can then var_dump() it and see the hierarchy you're dealing with and loop through it.
I have a controller function in CodeIgniter that looks like this:
$perm = $this->job_m->getIdByGroup();
foreach($perm as $pe=>$p)
{
$pId = $p['id'];
$result = $this->job_m->getDatapermission($pId);
}
$data['permission'] = $result;
What I need to do is list the data in the result in the view, but I get only the last value while using this method. How can I pass all the results to the view?
Store it in an array. Like this:
foreach($perm as $pe=>$p){
$result[] = $this->job_m->getDatapermission($p['id']);
}
Because $result is not an array...
try this:
$result=array();
foreach($perm as $pe=>$p)
{
$pId = $p['id'];
$result[] = $this->job_m->getDatapermission($pId);
}
$data['permission'] = $result;
Note:
My answer uses a counter to enable the display of a single group result when needed.
Guessing from your need to loop and display the value of $result, possibly, it is an array or object returned by $query->result(). Things could be a bit complex.
Example: if $perm is an array of 5 items( or groups), the counter assigns keys 1 - 5 instead of 0 - 4 as would [] which could be misleading. Using the first view example, you could choose to display a single group value if you wants by passing it via a url segment. Making the code more flexible and reusable. E.g. You want to show just returns for group 2, in my example, $result[2] would do just that else next code runs. See my comments in the code.
$perm = $this->job_m->getIdByGroup();
$counter = 1;
foreach($perm as $pe=>$p)
{
$pId = $p['id'];
$result[$counter] = $this->job_m->getDatapermission($pId);
$counter++;
}
$data['permission'] = $result;
As mentioned above Note:
I Added a Counter or Key so you target specific level. If the groups are:
Men, Women, Boys, Girls, Children; you'd know women is group two(2) If you desire to display values for just that group, you don't need to rewrite the code below. Just pass the group key would be as easy as telling it by their sequence. To display all the loop without restrictions, use the second view example. To use both, use an if statement for that.
###To access it you could target a specific level like
if(isset($permission)){
foreach($permission[2] as $key => $value){
echo $value->columnname;
}
###To get all results:
foreach($permission as $array){
foreach($array as $key => $value){
echo $value->columnname;
}
}
}
