In PHP, I have an array of JSON strings. I would like to know if there is a way to create a JSON string of this array without double encoding the original JSON.
The array looks like this:
The resulting call to json_encode($myArray, JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES) looks like this:
{
"invoice": "{\"order_id\":\"1\",\"store_id\":\"1\",\"customer_id\":\"2\",\"billing_address_id\":\"2\",\"shipping_address_id\":\"1\",\"global_currency_code\":\"USD\",\"base_currency_code\":\"USD\",\"store_currency_code\":\"USD\",\"order_currency_code\":\"USD\",\"store_to_base_rate\":\"0.0000\",\"store_to_order_rate\":\"0.0000\",\"base_to_global_rate\":\"1.0000\",\"base_to_order_rate\":\"1.0000\",\"items\":{},\"total_qty\":1,\"subtotal\":59.95,\"base_subtotal\":59.95,\"subtotal_incl_tax\":59.95,\"base_subtotal_incl_tax\":59.95,\"grand_total\":64.95,\"base_grand_total\":64.95,\"discount_amount\":0,\"base_discount_amount\":0,\"shipping_amount\":\"5.0000\",\"base_shipping_amount\":\"5.0000\",\"shipping_incl_tax\":\"5.0000\",\"base_shipping_incl_tax\":\"5.0000\",\"shipping_tax_amount\":\"0.0000\",\"base_shipping_tax_amount\":\"0.0000\",\"shipping_discount_tax_compensation_amount\":\"0.0000\",\"base_shipping_discount_tax_compensation_amnt\":null,\"tax_amount\":0,\"base_tax_amount\":0,\"discount_tax_compensation_amount\":0,\"base_discount_tax_compensation_amount\":0,\"base_cost\":0,\"can_void_flag\":false,\"state\":2}",

}
I understand WHY its doing it this way, i'd just rather it not. Also, ideally i'd like to avoid using a str_replace. Ideas?
