Question

could anyone here help me with php an decoding json? Im trying to decode a json api url

Here is what I have at the moment:

Answer 1

You can use the curly brackets syntax suggested by Gumbo:

$json_o->workers->{"someusername.jason-laptop"}

However, the best way (imo, for consistency) is to use the resulting object as an associative array:

$object = json_decode($string, true);

$object['workers']['bitcoinjol.jason-laptop']['last_share']; // 1307389634

Answer 2

The curly braces syntax should work:

$json_o->workers->{"someusername.jason-laptop"}

Answer 3

- or . are not valid object property names. Try instead using json_decode($string, true) (the true stands for "decode as an associative array"), and then do $json_o['workers']['someusername.jason-laptop'].

Answer 4

This should work:

$json_o->workers['someusername.jason-laptop'];

Answer 5

 $json_o = json_decode($string);
 print_r( $json_o->workers->{"bitcoinjol.jason-laptop"} );
