PHP: Give a name to an array of JSON objects?

Question

I have managed to get data from database in PHP file. From there(data.php),

$output = json_encode($result);

The result would be like this,<

Answer 1

Use nested encode and decode

$json = '[{"kitty":"Whitely"},{"kitty":"Tabby"},{"kitty":"Ruby"},{"kitty":"Silver"}]';

echo json_encode(array('kitten' => json_decode($json)));

Answer 2

You have to wrap your result in another array on the 'kitten' key :

$output = json_encode(['kitten' => $result]);

Answer 3

 $result =array('kitten'=> $output);

output

{
"kitten":[
          {"kitty":"Whitely"},
          {"kitty":"Tabby"},
          {"kitty":"Ruby"},
          {"kitty":"Silver"}
        ]
}

Answer 4

try to use this

$output['kitty'][] = json_encode($result);

Answer 5

Try this:

<?php

$kitty = array('kitten' => array());
$kitty['kitty'][] = array('kitty' => 'Tabby');
$kitty['kitty'][] = array('kitty' => 'Ruby');
$kitty['kitty'][] = array('kitty' => 'Silver');

var_dump($kitty);
var_dump(json_encode($kitty));

which results in: {"kitty":[{"kitty":"Tabby"},{"kitty":"Ruby"},{"kitty":"Silver"}]}
