json object inside php object encode

Question

Currently getting json results:

  {

    "post_company_success_company_address_ibfk_1": [
        "123 Main Street N\/A Cincinnati Ohio 45500"
    ]
}

The goal is include address as a separate JSON object in an array attribute of the company object.

I have tried this:

  $real= json_encode(['post_company_success_'.$randomname => {[  $result2]}], JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);

It did not work.

WARNING: When using PDO you should be using prepared statements with placeholder values and supply any user data as separate arguments. In this code you have potentially severe SQL injection bugs. Never use string interpolation or concatenation and instead use prepared statements and never put $_POST, $_GET or any user data directly in your query. Refer to PHP The Right Way for general guidance and advice. — tadman

You can only parse one JSON document at a time with JSON.parse. If you have multiple documents, split them apart and process them individually. — tadman

how tadman like $result1=$data; $result2=$data2; $combo = $result1.$result2; echo json_encode($combo, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT); — James Shelton

That doesn't make any sense. How do those relate to $combo? — tadman

The trick with JSON encoding is to structure your data into a singular object of some kind, typically some kind of array, and then call json_encode on it once.

For example:

json_encode([ 'key1' => $data1, 'key2' => $data2 ]);

If you concatenate multiple JSON documents together that's not valid from a JSON perspective, so any assembly you perform will need to be undone on the receiving end before processing and parsing.

There are quasi-standards like JSON Lines or Line-Delimited JSON which specify how to encode multiple documents, but these are outside of the JSON specification itself.
