How to Parse a JSON File in PHP
In this lesson I will show you how you can parse a JSON file and retrieve information from the object.
Let us consider the following:
Lines 2 to 10: The JSON data should be quite easy to interpret. We have the Make of a car (Porsche) and 3 models of the Porsche car (911, 911 Turbo, and Carrera).
Line 12: we decode the JSON data
Line 14: we retrieve the data in position 1 of the Model array. In this case it is 911 Turbo.
The output is:
911 Turbo
