I'm pretty new to arrays still. I need some help - I have some JSON, and I've run it through some PHP that basically parses the JSON and decodes it as follows:
stdClass Object
(
[2010091907] => stdClass Object
(
[home] => stdClass Object
(
[score] => stdClass Object
(
[1] => 7
[2] => 17
[3] => 10
[4] => 7
[5] => 0
[T] => 41
)
[abbr] => ATL
[to] => 2
)
This actually goes on and on - BUT - my problem is the stdClass Object
part. I need to be able to call this in a for loop and then iterate through each section (home, score, abbr, to, etc). How would I go about this?
The stdClass is the empty class in PHP which is used to cast other types to object. It is similar to Java or Python object. The stdClass is not the base class of the objects. If an object is converted to object, it is not modified.
You can use get_object_vars()
to get an array of the object's properties, or call json_decode()
with json_decode($string,true);
to get an associative array.
Example:
<?php
$foo = array('123456' =>
array('bar' =>
array('foo'=>1,'bar'=>2)));
//as object
var_dump($opt1 = json_decode(json_encode($foo)));
echo $opt1->{'123456'}->bar->foo;
foreach(get_object_vars($opt1->{'123456'}->bar) as $key => $value){
echo $key.':'.$value.PHP_EOL;
}
//as array
var_dump($opt2 = json_decode(json_encode($foo),true));
echo $opt2['123456']['bar']['foo'];
foreach($opt2['123456']['bar'] as $key => $value){
echo $key.':'.$value.PHP_EOL;
}
?>
Output:
object(stdClass)#1 (1) {
["123456"]=>
object(stdClass)#2 (1) {
["bar"]=>
object(stdClass)#3 (2) {
["foo"]=>
int(1)
["bar"]=>
int(2)
}
}
}
1
foo:1
bar:2
array(1) {
[123456]=>
array(1) {
["bar"]=>
array(2) {
["foo"]=>
int(1)
["bar"]=>
int(2)
}
}
}
1
foo:1
bar:2
