FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package json
Json
JSON wrapper that provide better developer experience than the native json_encode and json_decode.
Installation
Differences to json_encode / json_decode
- Always throws
\JsonExceptionon errors - Consistent order of arguments (
$value/$json,$flags,$depth) - Stricter when encoding and decoding, only supports arrays and objects, does not support scalar values
Usage
Both encode and decode are static methods and have the same order of arguments: first the input, followed by int $flags and lastly int $depth.
Encoding
The encode method is a wrapper for the native json_encode method.
Signature: public static function encode(array|object $value, int $flags = 0, int $depth = 512) : string
Encoding (Pretty Print)
The pretty method is a convenience method to get pretty formatted output without having
to manually specify the JSON_PRETTY_PRINT flag.
It has the same signature as encode().
Decoding
The decode method is a wrapper for the native json_decode method.
Signature: public static function decode(string $json, int $flags = 0, int $depth = 512) : array|object
Decoding (Associative)
The decodeAssoc method is a convenience method to decode but force all objects to associative arrays without having to
manually specify the JSON_OBJECT_AS_ARRAY flag.
It has the same signature as decode().
Error handling
Any time an error occurs the native JsonException will be thrown.
Supported types
My belief is that the most common usage of JSON in PHP is to store a JSON representation of arrays or objects. It is true that a single string, integer, boolean or even a single null value is a valid JSON document, but if you are as me and only using JSON for arrays or objects then it's just easier to treat anything else as invalid data and throw an exception, this removes some of the need to check the type after decoding.
depth argument and NO_FLAGS
If you want to access the $depth argument without adding any additional flags, you must supply the default value 0 for the $flags argument,
but to make the experiance more clearer you can use the constant Json::NO_FLAGS instead.
