如何使用PHP循环JSON数组

Question

My PHP code:

$obj = json_decode($data);
print $obj->{'name'};

While it works for non-arrays, I can't for the life of me figure out how to print all the values within the "Reviews" Array.

What I would like to do is to loop through this response, probably with forreach(), resulting in a list containing the rating and excerpt for each review in the response.

Any guidance / direction is greatly appreciated..

Below is the JSON I'm working with. (it is the response from the Yelp API).

    "rating": 4.5,

Answer 1

You are probably having trouble because reviews is an array and you are trying to access it as a JSON object.

$obj = json_decode($data, TRUE);
for($i=0; $i<count($obj['reviews']); $i++) {
    echo "Rating is " . $obj['reviews'][$i]["rating"] . " and the excerpt is " . $obj['reviews'][$i]["excerpt"] . "<BR>";
}

Answer 2

I'm not sure what exactly you want but I guess you want print it just for debugging right now. You can try with print_r($obj); and var_dump($obj); - they must print something, especially var_dump() . When you see the data, you can easily edit function a little bit, so you can do for instance print_r($obj->reviews) or print_r($obj['reviews']) , depending if $obj is object or array.

Answer 3

You can use var_dump or print_r.

<?php 
$decodedJSON = json_decode($jsonData);

// Put everyting to the screen with var_dump;
var_dump($decodedJSON);

// With print_r ( useful for arrays );
print_r($decodedJSON);

// List just review ratings with foreach;
foreach($decodedJSON['reviews'] as $review){
    echo $review['rating'];
}
?>
