Pretty-Printing JSON with PHP

Question

I\'m building a PHP script that feeds JSON data to another script. My script builds data into a large associative array, and then outputs the data using json_encode

Answer 1

If you are working with MVC

try doing this in your controller

public function getLatestUsers() {
    header('Content-Type: application/json');
    echo $this->model->getLatestUsers(); // this returns json_encode($somedata, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT)
}

then if you call /getLatestUsers you will get a pretty JSON output ;)
