I want a json output as follows:
{
"id": "c200",
"name": "Aneesh",
"email": "[email protected]",
"phone": {
"mobile": "+91 0000000000",
"home": "00 000000",
"office": "00 000000"
},
"phone": {
"mobile": "+91 0000000000",
"home": "00 000000",
"office": "00 000000"
}
}
how to write a PHP code using json_encode for this output? Thanks! Cheers!
As I have said in the comments, that won't be possible because they share the same key.
Alternatively, you could create another dimension inside phone. Example:
$values = array(
'id' => 'c200',
'name' => 'Aneesh',
'email' => '[email protected]',
'phone' => array(
array(
"mobile" => "+91 0000000000",
"home" => "00 000000",
"office" => "00 000000",
),
array(
"mobile" => "+91 0000000000",
"home" => "00 000000",
"office" => "00 000000",
),
),
);
echo '<pre>';
echo json_encode($values, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);
Should output this:
{
"id": "c200",
"name": "Aneesh",
"email": "[email protected]",
"phone": [
{
"mobile": "+91 0000000000",
"home": "00 000000",
"office": "00 000000"
},
{
"mobile": "+91 0000000000",
"home": "00 000000",
"office": "00 000000"
}
]
}
Jut create an array and pass it to the json_decode, like this:
$arr = array("id"=> "c200", "name"=> "Aneesh", "email"=> "[email protected]",
"phone"=>array("mobile"=> "+91 0000000000", "home" =>"00 000000", "office"
=>"00 000000"));
echo json_encode($arr);
The easiest way to get JSON output with PHP, is to simply make a PHP array, and then echo json_encode($array);.
To explain, for your code:
$array = array( "id"=>"c200",
"name"=>"Aneesh",
"email"=> "[email protected]",
"phone"=> array(array( "mobile"=>"+91 0000000000",
"home"=> "00 000000",
"office"=>"00 000000"),
array( "mobile"=>"+91 0000000000",
"home"=> "00 000000",
"office"=>"00 000000"
)));
echo json_encode($array);
The nice thing about json_encode is it will take care of special characters that need to be escaped in JSON for you, so you can put whatever you want in the array.
You can get an idea from this:
var arr ={};
arr['name'] = "random";
arr['contact']= {};
arr['contact']['first']="3333333";
arr['contact']['second']="2222222";
console.log(arr);
phonekeys, alternatively, you can add another dimension insidephone, then you can have them both
