问题
I have a result of export variable in Perl like this string:
$VAR1 = {
'guard' => undef,
'work_hand' => undef,
'images' =>
{'1' =>
{
'mini_height' => 150,
'width' => 150,
'extension' => 'jpg',
'filename' => 'object_1.1330907414.96873.jpg',
'mini_width' => 150,
'class' => 'Ontico::Image',
'height' => 150,
'mini_filename' => 'object_1.1330907414.96873.mini.jpg',
'size' => 26053,
'symname' => 'big_logo'
},
'2' =>
{
'width' => 48,
'extension' => 'jpg',
'alt' => 'Даниэле Галлоппа',
'height' => 48,
'mini_filename' => 'object_91.1235312905.mini.jpg',
'size' => 12809,
'symname' => 'logo',
'mini_height' => 150,
'filename' => 'object_91.1235312905.jpg',
'mini_width' => 150,
'class' => 'Ontico::Image'
}
},
'show_league_banner' => 0,
'back_hand' => undef,
'weight_category' => undef,
'stick_position' => undef
};
How can I deserialize this data in PHP?
P.S. I already have data in this format in DB, I cannot change it to json or another.
回答1:
Since you stated you cannot change format:
I don't like using eval, but because your syntax is so close to the expected PHP array syntax, I think we can let it slide.
Set $string equal to the contents from your database that fits the format below. See below for a working example using the data you provided. At the end of the day, PHP will set the variable at the beginning of your perl var to the new parsed array.
Since it is going to be a textblock/large string, do:
<?php
$string = "\$VAR1 = {
'guard' => undef,
'work_hand' => undef,
'images' =>
{'1' =>
{
'mini_height' => 150,
... // truncated for readability
};";
$res = str_replace(array("{", "}", 'undef'), array("array(", ")", "''"), $string);
eval($res);
print_r($VAR1);
Your result is:
Array
(
[guard] =>
[work_hand] =>
[images] => Array
(
[1] => Array
(
[mini_height] => 150 ...
Note: I would suggest you take the time now to retrofit and upgrade your database content to a more standard format simply for the fact that it will be easier to maintain in the future.
You can loop through your database, grab all the contents row by row, at which point you run the data into the function above, and wrap it in json_encode() and update your database row with the new JSON string. This will save you a headache in the future and allow you to update all your data for the new standard.
回答2:
You've got a number of suggestions for trying to parse it one way or another, but the real question is why?
Why not just have a small Perl program that loads it, and spits out an equivalent JSON string.
You could then either call that Perl program from within your PHP to do the conversion; this would mean you are using Perl to read the Perl format, which would guarantee correct conversion.
Or (better yet) run it against your entire database in a batch, to get rid of the Perl-specific data format from the DB; then you can just use PHP's standard JSON functions.
That would then make life so much simpler in your PHP code (or in any other language you need to read the data with at a later date).
回答3:
Since it's not JSON but it looks like JSON, you could try to modify a JSON library to work with that format. I took this JSON library, replaced : with => and added undef as you can see here (lines 496, 671 and 681). It's pretty straightforward, really, and I assume you can work around other differences in a similar manner.
Result is:
stdClass Object
(
[guard] =>
[work_hand] =>
[images] => stdClass Object
(
[1] => stdClass Object
(
[mini_height] => 150
[width] => 150
[extension] => jpg
[filename] => object_1.1330907414.96873.jpg
[mini_width] => 150
[class] => Ontico::Image
[height] => 150
[mini_filename] => object_1.1330907414.96873.mini.jpg
[size] => 26053
[symname] => big_logo
)
[2] => stdClass Object
(
[width] => 48
[extension] => jpg
[alt] => Даниэле Галлоппа
[height] => 48
[mini_filename] => object_91.1235312905.mini.jpg
[size] => 12809
[symname] => logo
[mini_height] => 150
[filename] => object_91.1235312905.jpg
[mini_width] => 150
[class] => Ontico::Image
)
)
[show_league_banner] => 0
[back_hand] =>
[weight_category] =>
[stick_position] =>
)
Is that what you're looking for?

The obvious and only robust solution is to use Perl to deserialize and reserialize the input to a standard format. The Perl program that can accomplish this task does not need to be very large, either.
// receive input in Perl's Data::Dumper format and produce PHP object output
function perl_dd_to_php( $dd_output ) {
$process = proc_open( "perl -000 -MJSON -e 'print encode_json eval <>'",
array( array("pipe","r"), array("pipe","w") ),
$pipes );
fwrite($pipes[0], $dd_output );
fclose($pipes[0]);
$json_string = stream_get_contents($pipes[1]);
fclose($pipes[1]);
return json_decode($json_string);
}
回答5:
use JSON;
(or any other data interchange format like XML)
JSON documentation and examples are available at CPAN
回答6:
If you can change the Perl code, then do as amon suggests and use some standard serialization format like JSON or XML or YAML that you can deserialize in PHP.
You could even make Perl output PHP's native serialization format if you really wanted to, although I wouldn't generally recommend that. (What about when you next want to deserialize the same data in, say, Python?)
If you can't change the Perl code, you'll just have to bite the bullet and try to parse the Data::Dumper output in PHP. I couldn't find any existing code to do that, so it looks like you may have to write your own. This could be job for a parser generator, although the format is (usually) simple enough that you might be able to just hand-code it.
Edit: Since you say that you have this serialized data in a database, why not just write a Perl program to read the data and convert it to a more standard serialization format like JSON?
