Braincrafted\Json

An object-orientated wrapper for json_encode() and json_decode() with error handling.

Developed by Florian Eckerstorfer in Vienna, Europe.

Installation

The recommended way of installing BraincraftedJson is through Composer:

$ composer require braincrafted/json:@stable

Tip: You should replace @stable with the most recent version from the releases page.

Usage

use Braincrafted\Json\Json;
use Braincrafted\Json\JsonDecodeException;

// Encode a variable as JSON:
echo Json::encode(array('name' => 'Bilbo Baggins'));

// Decode JSON:
print_r(Json::decode('{"name": "Bilbo Baggins"}'));

// Decode JSON into an array:
print_r(Json::decode('{"name": "Bilbo Baggins"}', Json::DECODE_ASSOC));

// Error handling
try {
    Json::decode('{"name": "Bilbo Baggins"'); // missing }
} catch (JsonDecodeException $e) {
    echo sprintf("Could not decode JSON.\nReason: %s", $e->getMessage());
}
