How to rename array keys in PHP?

Question

When I var_dump on a variable called $tags (a multidimensional array) I get this:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [name] => tabbing
            [url         


        

Answer 1

It is from duplicated question

$json = '[   
{"product_id":"63","product_batch":"BAtch1","product_quantity":"50","product_price":"200","discount":"0","net_price":"20000"},    
{"product_id":"67","product_batch":"Batch2","product_quantity":"50","product_price":"200","discount":"0","net_price":"20000"}
]';

$array = json_decode($json, true);

$out = array_map(function ($product) {
  return array_merge([
    'price'    => $product['product_price'],
    'quantity' => $product['product_quantity'],
  ], array_flip(array_filter(array_flip($product), function ($value) {
    return $value != 'product_price' && $value != 'product_quantity';
  })));
}, $array);

var_dump($out);

Recursive php rename keys function:

function replaceKeys($oldKey, $newKey, array $input){
    $return = array(); 
    foreach ($input as $key => $value) {
        if ($key===$oldKey)
            $key = $newKey;

        if (is_array($value))
            $value = replaceKeys( $oldKey, $newKey, $value);

        $return[$key] = $value;
    }
    return $return; 
}

This should work in most versions of PHP 4+. Array map using anonymous functions is not supported below 5.3.

Also the foreach examples will throw a warning when using strict PHP error handling.

Here is a small multi-dimensional key renaming function. It can also be used to process arrays to have the correct keys for integrity throughout your app. It will not throw any errors when a key does not exist.

function multi_rename_key(&$array, $old_keys, $new_keys)
{
    if(!is_array($array)){
        ($array=="") ? $array=array() : false;
        return $array;
    }
    foreach($array as &$arr){
        if (is_array($old_keys))
        {
            foreach($new_keys as $k => $new_key)
            {
                (isset($old_keys[$k])) ? true : $old_keys[$k]=NULL;
                $arr[$new_key] = (isset($arr[$old_keys[$k]]) ? $arr[$old_keys[$k]] : null);
                unset($arr[$old_keys[$k]]);
            }
        }else{
            $arr[$new_keys] = (isset($arr[$old_keys]) ? $arr[$old_keys] : null);
            unset($arr[$old_keys]);
        }
    }
    return $array;
}

Usage is simple. You can either change a single key like in your example:

multi_rename_key($tags, "url", "value");

or a more complex multikey

multi_rename_key($tags, array("url","name"), array("value","title"));

It uses similar syntax as preg_replace() where the amount of $old_keys and $new_keys should be the same. However when they are not a blank key is added. This means you can use it to add a sort if schema to your array.

Use this all the time, hope it helps!

foreach ($basearr as &$row)
{
    $row['value'] = $row['url'];
    unset( $row['url'] );
}

unset($row);
