获取Json输出，使用REST PHP显示在php中

Question

I have written Rest Api in python. and output comes in json format.

Like http://api.myserver.com/v0/movies

it will give me output in json format:

[
{"id":"1","movie_name":"Toy story","genre":["children","action"]},
{{"id":"2","movie_name":"Jab tak hai jaan","genre":["romance","Drama"]}}
]

Now I want output in readable format using PHP.

I heard that there is some concept of REST php. Which get output and store it in $rest variable and after that we can use it . So can somebody tell me how to do this problem.

Thanks.

Answer 1

use json_decode($json_string, true); which will give you array

Answer 2

use

json_decode ( string $json [, bool $assoc = false [, int $depth = 512 [, int $options = 0 ]]]

$json - is your json string

$assoc = When TRUE, returned objects will be converted into associative arrays.
