Convert array to json with php

Question

I would change the shape of the array into json but difficulty in parsing the data, I have an array like :

Array ( [id] => 1
        [fisrt_name] => raul
        [last_name] => gonzales
        [tgl_booking_start] => 2013-11-04 00:00:00 
        [tgl_booking_finish] => 2013-11-30 00:00:00 
      ),
      ( [id] => 2
        [fisrt_name] => chirtiano
        [last_name] => ronaldo
        [tgl_booking_start] => 2013-11-04 00:00:00 
        [tgl_booking_finish] => 2013-11-30 00:00:00 
      )

I want to change it into a form json like this, how do I start the code?

   [{
   "id":1,
   "title":"raul gonzales",
   "start":"2013-11-04",
   "end":"2013-11-30"
   },
   {
   "id":2,
   "title":"chirtiano ronaldo",
   "start":"2013-11-04",
   "end":"2013-11-30"
  }]

thanks for answering

What's wrong with json_encode()? Doesn't it do what you want? — Barmar

What have you tried so far? Why json_encode us1.php.net/json_encode is not suitable? — Harri
– Harri, Commented Nov 28, 2013 at 8:28
You'll need to write your own loop to change the keys and combine first and last name into title, there's nothing built-in to do that. — Barmar

I've tried it but I am not parsing the data associated array — mayus

 <?php
        $array = array ( 
              array( 'id' => '1',
                'fisrt_name' => 'raul',
                'last_name' => 'gonzales',
                'tgl_booking_start' => '2013-11-04 00:00:00' ,
                'tgl_booking_finish' => '2013-11-30 00:00:00' ,
              ),
              array( 'id' => '2',
                'fisrt_name' => 'chirtiano',
                'last_name' => 'ronaldo',
                'tgl_booking_start' => '2013-11-04 00:00:00', 
                'tgl_booking_finish' => '2013-11-30 00:00:00', 
              ) 
          );

        $new_arr = array();

        foreach($array as $arr){
                $process_array = array();
                $process_array['id'] = $arr['id'];
                $process_array['title'] = $arr['fisrt_name'].' '.$arr['last_name'];
                $process_array['start'] = $arr['tgl_booking_start'];
                $process_array['end'] =  $arr['tgl_booking_finish'];

                array_push($new_arr,$process_array);

         }

         echo json_encode($new_arr);

    ?>

output would be

[{
"id":"1",
"title":"raul gonzales",
"start":"2013-11-04 00:00:00",
"end":"2013-11-30 00:00:00"
},
{
"id":"2",
"title":"chirtiano ronaldo",
"start":"2013-11-04 00:00:00",
"end":"2013-11-30 00:00:00"
}]

Use json_enconde($array) for convert array to json and and json_decode($json) for convert json to array.

In javascript access json elements for index example: $json['title']

You can use json_decode

echo json_encode($array);

And if you want a more powerful solution than the built-in json_encode function (mainly for object serialization), try the JmsSerializer library (used a lot in Symfony2 projects) : http://jmsyst.com/libs/serializer

Consider using both stripslashes and json_encode functions to avoid unexpected problems.

echo stripslashes(json_encode($array));
