Parse JSON array of arrays

Question

I have a Php array of arrays which is json encoded as

 [{"TASK_ID":"79","USER_ID":"cool12",
   "LATITUDE":"32.702550412612524",
   "LONGITUDE":"74.85893413424492",
   "STARTED_ON":"2016-06-07 14:57:05",
   "STOPED_ON":"2016-06-07 14:57:05",
   "DEVICE_ID":null,"DEVICE_NAME":null,
   "DEVICE_TYPE":null,"PATH_ENDED":"0"},  
   {"TASK_ID":"80",
    "USER_ID":"cool12", 
   "LATITUDE":"32.70255831226375",
  "LONGITUDE":"74.85894754529",
  "STARTED_ON":"2016-06-07 14:57:06",
  "STOPED_ON":"2016-06-07 14:57:06",
 "DEVICE_ID":null,
  "DEVICE_NAME":null,
  "DEVICE_TYPE":null,
 "PATH_ENDED”:”0”}]


var ar = <?php echo json_encode($resultArray) ?>;

gives this result

Array [ Object, Object, Object, Object, Object, Object, Object, Object, Object, Object, 25 more… ]

How to parse this array to get the values

You don't need to do anything, the result is an array literal so ar is an array of objects. Iterate over the array to get at the objects, e.g. ar.forEach(function(obj){console.log(obj.TASK_ID)}). — RobG

json_encode() is a function that creates a JSON string out of a PHP array.

Important thing to note here is PHP array is somewhat similar to Javascript Object containing key and value pairs.

Hence, after you get your variable ar in javascript all you have to do is JSON.parse(ar), and then walk through the variable by any of the following loops (or any other custom function) :

forEach
for in loop
for of loop
