json returned from CI REST API is failing jsonlint tests

Question

I have the following code in a codeigniter REST app (built using: https://github.com/chriskacerguis/codeigniter-restserver)

public function fullname_get()
{
   $         


        

Answer 1

You have to strip slashes, use this stripslashes(json_encode($fullname)). Full code mention below:

public function fullname_get()
{
   $fullname = array("fname"=>"john", "lname"=>"doe");
   $data["json"] = stripslashes(json_encode($fullname));
   $this->response($data["json"], 200);
}

I hope this will solve your issue.
