heres the function:
http://pastebin.com/tQLjzzbH
I want it to return this:
{"years":[
{
"yName":"2011",
"yAlbums:[
{
auID:"1234",
aID:"456",
etc..
},
{
auID:"12345",
aID:"4567",
etc..
}
},
{
"yName":"2010",
"yAlbums:[
{
auID:"2234",
aID:"556",
etc..
}
}
]}
but its only returning this:
{"years":[
{"yName":"2011"},
{"yName":"2010"}]}
Been trying to get this for ages, am totally lost now. Some help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
You have read your result to the very end by
while($data2 = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
$yearsArrayRaw[] = $data2['album_year'];
}
Add mysql_data_seek($result,0) before inner while, to line 36. Also, I would suggest rewriting this function to have single loop, using something like
$year_albums= array();
while ($data = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
if (empty($years[$data['album_year']])){
$year_albums[$data['album_year'] = array(
'yName'=>$data['album_year'],
'yAlbums'=>array()
);
}
//...album creation logic here...//
$year_albums[$data['album_year']['yAlbums'][] = $album;
}
//Converting arrays into objects
$years = array();
foreach ($year_albums as $year){
$years[] = (object)$year;
}
json_encode($years);

Hello Stackoverflow community, i'm little bit confused how i can achieve this. So this is how my json response should look:
some_array: [
{
some_json_object_atribute_1:
some_json_object_atribute_2:
// Here i need an array
json_array: [
]
}
{
some_json_object_atribute_1:
some_json_object_atribute_2:
}
]
But i'm only getting one row from json array. This is some part of the code:
$response["chat_rooms"] = array();
while ($chat_room = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
$tmp = array();
$tmp["chat_room_id"] = $chat_room["chat_room_id"];
$unread_messages = $db->getAllUnreadMsgsFromChatRoom($user_id, $chat_room["chat_room_id"]);
while ($unread_message = $unread_messages->fetch_assoc()) {
// Here i need one json array
$tmp["message_id"] = $unread_message["message_id"];
}
array_push($response["chat_rooms"], $tmp);
}
You are overriding $tmp["chat_room_id"] in every run of the while loop.
The right syntax would be:
$tmp["chat_room_id"][] = $unread_message["message_id"];
or
array_push($tmp["chat_room_id"], $unread_message["message_id"]);
i have problem with this code. i want make the output look like this.
array(‘keyword’=>array(
0=>'url1',
1=>'url2',
))
currently this is my code. it only show me one url but actually theres a lot more. can someone please help me.
$data = array();
foreach ($response->Items->Item as $row)
{
$data[$keyword] = $row->DetailPageURL;
}
return $data;
Try with -
$data[$keyword][] = $row->DetailPageURL;
Replace with this code....
$data = array();
foreach ($response->Items->Item as $row)
{
$data[$keyword][] = $row->DetailPageURL;
}
return $data;
I'm trying to build a page which queries my database and then formats output so another webservice/page can access the data.
Ideally I wanted to explore having the data in JSON format, but that is not working. The other problem I have which is more major than the JSON not working is, if I have 3 records in $reportsResult, only the last one is displayed.
Anyone with some help please. Oh do I also need to print_r for the external webpage to retrieve the data or is there a better way?
class Pupil {
public $FirstName = "";
public $LastName = "";
}
foreach($reportsResult->getRecords() as $reportRecord) {
$Pupil = new Pupil();
$Pupil->FirstName = $reportRecord->getField('FName');
$Pupil->LastName = $reportRecord->getField('SName');
}
json_encode($Pupil);
OK managed to figure out how how to get all records from the loop, but its still not displaying in json format when I do a print_r - am I missing something?
$AllPupils = array();
foreach($reportsResult->getRecords() as $reportRecord)
{
$Pupil = new Pupil();
$Pupil->FamID = $reportRecord->getField('FName');
$Pupil->ChildName = $reportRecord->getField('SName');
array_push($AllPupils, $Pupil);
}
json_encode($AllPupils);
Everytime your foreach loop starts again, it will override your $Pupil variable.
Try an array instead:
$Pupil = array()
$i = 0;
foreach($reportsResult->getRecords() as $reportRecord) {
$Pupil[$i] = new Pupil();
$Pupil[$i]->FirstName = $reportRecord->getField('FName');
$Pupil[$i]->LastName = $reportRecord->getField('SName');
$i++;
}
echo json_encode($Pupil);
Edit: mikemackintosh's solution should also work and could be a little bit faster (depending on the size of your foreach loop).
To display the results you need to echo your data (not only json_encode).
You will probably run into issues since json_encode wont handle the whole object. for that, you may want to serialize the $Pupil object.
Something like below may work for you though. It will assign the values to a returned array, which will allow json_encode to execute gracefully:
class Pupil {
public $FirstName = "";
public $LastName = "";
public function getAttr(){
return array("FirstName" => $this->FirstName, "LastName" => $this->LastName);
}
}
$json = array();
foreach($reportsResult->getRecords() as $reportRecord) {
$Pupil = new Pupil();
$Pupil->FirstName = $reportRecord->getField('FName');
$Pupil->LastName = $reportRecord->getField('SName');
$json[] = $Pupil->getAttr();
}
echo json_encode($json);
I am not sure why you have that class defined, but you know what in your for each have something like
foreach ($reportsResult->getRecords() as $key => $record) {
$data[$key]['firstname'] = $record->getField('Fname');
$data[$key]['lastname'] = $record->getField('Sname');
}
And then you can check the final array using print_r
and while output you can simply do a print json_encode($data) and it will give you a json string of all the items in the data array.
In php (at least), json_encode takes an array as parameter.
Therefore you should add a constructor to your class
function __construct($first, $last)
{
this.$FirstName = $first;
this.$LastName = $last;
}
and one for getting the full name as an array, ready to be jsoned
function getNameArray()
{
$nameArray = array();
$nameArray['firstName'] = this.$FirstName;
$nameArray['lastName'] = this.$LastName;
return $nameArray;
}
then in that foreach you build another array with all the pupils
$pupils = array();
foreach (bla bla)
{
$first = $reportRecord->getField('FName');
$last = $reportRecord->getField('SName');
$Pupil = new Pupil($first, $last);
array_push($pupils, $pupil.getNameArray());
}
finally, you have everything preped up
json_encode($pupils);
I'm sure there's other ways to debug your stuff, I use print_r mainly also.
i searched all over the web or i just don't see it.
I want to do the following:
<?php
function abc(){
$sql = "SELECT * FROM table";
$result = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql);
$data = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
}
?>
<? while(abc()) : ?>
<?=article_title()?>
<?=article_content()?>
<?=endwhile;?>
Could somebody give me a direction and/or example?
Thank you very much
PHP does not have generator/iterator functions, so you cannot do that.
You can however return an array and iterate over that array:
function abc() {
// ...
$rows = array();
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { $rows[] = $row; }
return $rows;
}
foreach(abc() as $row) {
// do something
}
If the functions you call need access to the row, pass it as an argument. Using global variables for it would be very bad/nasty
have you tried to do something like that?
<?php
function getData(){
//get the data from the database
//return an array where each component is an element found
}
$elems = getData();
foreach($elems as $e){
doSomethingWith($e);
}
This is going to be my first time building an associative array. And if anyone can help me I would be grateful.
Basically, I want to loop through a directory of XML files. I want to find out if a certain editor was the editor of this file, and if the query is true, I would like to grab two pieces of information and achieve the result of an associate array with those two pieces of information for every case where the editor's name is found.
So here's what I have got so far:
function getTitleandID($editorName) {
$listofTitlesandIDs = array();
$filename = readDirectory('../editedtranscriptions');
foreach($filename as $file)
{
$xmldoc = simplexml_load_file("../editedtranscriptions/$file");
$xmldoc->registerXPathNamespace("tei", "http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0");
if ($editorName == $xmldoc->xpath("//tei:editor[#role='PeerReviewEditor']/text()"))
{
$title = $xmldoc->xpath("//tei:teiHeader/tei:title[1]");
$id = $xmldoc->xpath("//tei:text/tei:body/tei:div/#xml:id[1]");
$listofTitlesandIDs[] = //I don't know what to do here
}
else
{
$listofTitlesandIDs = null;
}
}
return $listofTitlesandIDs
}
This is about where I get stuck. I'd like to be able have $listofTitlesandIDs as an associative array where I could call up the values for two different keys, e.g. $listofTitlesandIDs['title'] and $listofTitlesandIDs[$id]
So that's about it. I'm grateful for any help you have time to provide.
Well I'm sure this is a little clumsy (the result of an amateur) but it has given me the result I want.
function getTitlesandIDs($EditorName) //gets titles and IDs for given author
{
$list = array();
$filename = readDirectory('../editedtranscriptions');
foreach($filename as $file)
{
$xmldoc = simplexml_load_file("../editedtranscriptions/$file");
$xmldoc->registerXPathNamespace("tei", "http://www.tei-c.org/ns/1.0");
$title = $xmldoc->xpath("//tei:teiHeader/tei:fileDesc/tei:titleStmt/tei:title[1]");
$id = $xmldoc->xpath("//tei:text/tei:body/tei:div/#xml:id");
$editorName = $xmldoc->xpath("//tei:editor[#role='PeerReviewEditor']/text()")
if ($editorName[0] == "$EditorName")
{
$result = array("title"=>$title[0], "id"=>$id[0]);
$list[] = $result;
}
}
return $list;
}
With this I can call the function $list = getTitlesandIDs('John Doe') and then access both the title and id in the associative array for each instance. Like so:
foreach ($list as $instance)
{
echo $instance['title'];
echo $instance['id'];
}
Maybe that will help somebody some day -- let me know if you have any advice on making this more elegant.
$listofTitlesandIDs[$id] = $title;
You should loop over the array then using the foreach loop.
