Parsing a JSON file with PHP



I'm trying to get data from the following JSON file using PHP. I specifically want the @name and additional parameters in the below hierarchy, parsed and put in a tabular format which can be easily read as html.


@name



Considering we may be many types and sub-types wanted to understand the way it could be achieved in php, interactively.



It's probably really simple, but I have no idea how to do this. I'm stuck on what to do after
file_get_contents("output.json")


file_get_contents("output.json")

search for and read about json_decode. Make certain your json is valid (hint : this one is not).

Thanks @YvesLeBorg . The Json is now validated with an extra '}' in the end. Somehow it was removed while pasting.

To parse json I. PHP you be to use json_decode.


$content =file_get_contents("http://example.com/ex.json");
$jsonContent = json_decode($content,true)



$jsonContent contain your json data into an array thanks to second parameters.



This is a quick example you ve to check if content is not empty and if there is a json error.



Hope this helps

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Firebase Auth - with Email and Password - Check user already registered I want to check when a user attempts to signup with createUserWithEmailAndPassword() in Firebase user Authentication method, this user is already registered with my app. createUserWithEmailAndPassword() 8 Answers 8 To detect whether a user with that email address already exists, you can detect when the call to createUserWithEmailAndPassword () fails with auth/email-already-in-use .

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Dynamically update html content plain JS So I have a script bound in my index.html, which literally has to fetch an array of jsons from an api, then dynamically update my page when get response. But as a result I'm getting an as the only update of my page. here is my script fetch(url) .then((resp) => resp.json()) .then((resp) => resp.results.forEach(item => fetch(item.url) .then((response)=> response.json()) .then((response) => pokeArr.push(response)) .catch(console.log) ) ).catch(console.log) const filler = () => if(!pokeArr) return 0 pokeArr.map((i,j)=> return `<tr>$i.name</tr>` ) const pokeindex = () => document.getElementById('a').appendChild(document.createElement(filler())) pokeindex() When I'm consoling it, I can see in the console all the responses I get, so I'm at least doing the fetching part right.

Creating a leaderboard in HTML/JS

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Creating a leaderboard in HTML/JS I'm trying to create a top 10 leaderboard, for now, I've only implemented 3 players, but I'm coming across an issue. My script doesn't seem to be outputting anything on webpage. The purpose of the script is to compare 3 arrays, player1,player2,and player3 solely based off of score. Which is the 2nd index of each array. I want the script to list the players in order of highest score. This method doesn't really seem to be efficient, especially when I'll have to add 7 more players. Could someone suggest perhaps an easier approach, as well as show me why my script wont output the info. Here's the JS function leaderboard() { var player1 = name:"Thomas",date:"01/23/18",score:"201"; var player2 = name:"Michael",date:"03/24/17",score:"943"; var player3 = Name:"Lisa",date:"06/04/18",Score:"79"; if(player1[2]...
