1. json_decode ()
Json_decode
(PHP 5> = 5.2.0, PECL json> = 1.2.0)
Json_decode-encode strings in JSON format
Description
Mixed json_decode (string $ json [, bool $ assoc])
Accept a JSON string and convert it to a PHP variable
Parameters
Json
A string in json string format.
Assoc
If this parameter is set to TRUE, array instead of object is returned.
Return Value
Returns an object or if the optional assoc parameter is TRUE, an associative array is instead returned.
Example
Example #1 Example of json_decode ()
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
<? Php
$ Json = '{"a": 1, "B": 2, "c": 3, "d": 4, "e": 5 }';
Var_dump (json_decode ($ json ));
Var_dump (json_decode ($ json, true ));
?>
The above example will output:
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
Object (stdClass) #1 (5 ){
["A"] => int (1)
["B"] => int (2)
["C"] => int (3)
["D"] => int (4)
["E"] => int (5)
}
Array (5 ){
["A"] => int (1)
["B"] => int (2)
["C"] => int (3)
["D"] => int (4)
["E"] => int (5)
}
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
$ Data = '[{"Name": "a1", "Number": "123", "Contno": "000", "QQNo ":""}, {"Name": "a1", "Number": "123", "Contno": "000", "QQNo": "" },{ "Name ": "a1", "Number": "123", "Contno": "000", "QQNo": ""}] ';
Echo json_decode ($ data );
Result:
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
Array ([0] => stdClass Object ([Name] => a1 [Number] => 123 [Contno] => 000 [QQNo] =>) [1] => stdClass Object ([Name] => a1 [Number] => 123 [Contno] => 000 [QQNo] =>) [2] => stdClass Object ([Name] => a1 [Number] => 123 [Contno] => 000 [QQNo] => ))
It can be seen that the object compiled by json_decode () is an object. Now, output json_decode ($ data, true) and try again.
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
Echo json_decode ($ data, true );
Result:
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
Array ([0] => Array ([Name] => a1 [Number] => 123 [Contno] => 000 [QQNo] =>) [1] => Array ([Name] => a1 [Number] => 123 [Contno] => 000 [QQNo] =>) [2] => Array ([Name] => a1 [Number] => 123 [Contno] => 000 [QQNo] => ))
We can see an associated array output by json_decode ($ data, true). From this we can see that json_decode ($ data) Outputs An object, while json_decode ("$ arr", true) is to force generate PHP associated array.
2. json_encode ()
Json_encode
(PHP 5> = 5.2.0, PECL json> = 1.2.0)

Value
Value to be encoded. It can be of any data type except the resource type.
This function can only accept UTF-8-encoded data
Options
Binary mask composed of the following constants: JSON_HEX_QUOT, JSON_HEX_TAG, JSON_HEX_AMP, JSON_HEX_APOS, JSON_NUMERIC_CHECK, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT, response, JSON_FORCE_OBJECT.
Report a bug Return Value
If the encoding is successful, a string in JSON format is returned or FALSE is returned if the encoding fails.
Report a bug Update log
Version description

Example of Report a bug
Example #1 Example of A json_encode ()
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
<? Php
$ Arr = array ('A' => 1, 'B' => 2, 'c' => 3, 'D' => 4, 'E' => 5 );
Echo json_encode ($ arr );
?>
The above routine will output:
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
{"A": 1, "B": 2, "c": 3, "d": 4, "e": 5}
Example #2 usage of the options parameter in the json_encode () function
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
<? Php
$ A = array ('<foo>', "'bar'", '"baz"', '& blong &', "\ xc3 \ xa9 ");
Echo "Normal:", json_encode ($ a), "\ n ";
Echo "Tags:", json_encode ($ a, JSON_HEX_TAG), "\ n ";
Echo "Apos:", json_encode ($ a, JSON_HEX_APOS), "\ n ";
Echo "Quot:", json_encode ($ a, JSON_HEX_QUOT), "\ n ";
Echo "Amp:", json_encode ($ a, JSON_HEX_AMP), "\ n ";
Echo "Unicode:", json_encode ($ a, JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE), "\ n ";
Echo "All:", json_encode ($ a, JSON_HEX_TAG | JSON_HEX_APOS | JSON_HEX_QUOT | JSON_HEX_AMP | JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE), "\ n ";
$ B = array ();
Echo "Empty array output as array:", json_encode ($ B), "\ n ";
Echo "Empty array output as object:", json_encode ($ B, JSON_FORCE_OBJECT), "\ n ";
$ C = array (1, 2, 3 ));
Echo "Non-associative array output as array:", json_encode ($ c), "\ n ";
Echo "Non-associative array output as object:", json_encode ($ c, JSON_FORCE_OBJECT), "\ n ";
$ D = array ('foo' => 'bar', 'baz' => 'long ');
Echo "Associative array always output as object:", json_encode ($ d), "\ n ";
Echo "Associative array always output as object:", json_encode ($ d, JSON_FORCE_OBJECT), "\ n ";
?>
The above routine will output:
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:

Amp: ["<foo>", "'bar'", "\" baz \ "", "\ u0026blong \ u0026", "\ u00e9"]

All: ["\ u003Cfoo \ u003E", "\ u0027bar \ u0027", "\ u0022baz \ u0022", "\ u0026blong \ u0026", "é"]
Empty array output as array: []
Empty array output as object :{}
Non-associative array output as array: [[1, 2, 3]
Non-associative array output as object: {"0": {"0": 1, "1": 2, "2": 3 }}
Associative array always output as object: {"foo": "bar", "baz": "long "}
Associative array always output as object: {"foo": "bar", "baz": "long "}
Example #3 examples of continuous and non-continuous Arrays
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
<? Php
Echo "continuous array". PHP_EOL;
$ Sequential = array ("foo", "bar", "baz", "blong ");
Var_dump (
$ Sequential,
Json_encode ($ sequential)
);
Echo PHP_EOL. "discontinuous array". PHP_EOL;
$ Nonsequential = array (1 => "foo", 2 => "bar", 3 => "baz", 4 => "blong ");
Var_dump (
$ Nonsequential,
Json_encode ($ nonsequential)
);
Echo PHP_EOL. "An discontinuous array generated by deleting a continuous array value". PHP_EOL;
Unset ($ sequential [1]);
Var_dump (
$ Sequential,
Json_encode ($ sequential)
);
?>
The above routine will output:
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
Continuous Array
Array (4 ){
[0] =>
String (3) "foo"
[1] =>
String (3) "bar"
[2] =>
String (3) "baz"
[3] =>
String (5) "blong"
}
String (27) "[" foo "," bar "," baz "," blong "]"
Non-continuous Array
Array (4 ){
[1] =>
String (3) "foo"
[2] =>
String (3) "bar"
[3] =>
String (3) "baz"
[4] =>
String (5) "blong"
}
String (43) "{" 1 ":" foo "," 2 ":" bar "," 3 ":" baz "," 4 ":" blong "}"
Deletes a continuous array value.
Array (3 ){
[0] =>
String (3) "foo"
[2] =>
String (3) "baz"
[3] =>
String (5) "blong"
}
String (33) "{" 0 ":" foo "," 2 ":" baz "," 3 ":" blong "}"
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
$ Obj-> Name = 'a1'; $ obj-> Number = '2013 ';
$ Obj-> Contno = '000 ';
Echo json_encode ($ obj );
Result:
Copy codeThe Code is as follows:
{"Name": "a1 ",
"Number": "123 ",
"Contno": "000"
}
It can be seen that json_encode () and json_decode () are compilation and decompilation processes. Note that json only accepts UTF-8 characters. Therefore, the json_encode () parameter must be UTF-8 encoded, otherwise, null characters are returned.
