The following code works. I have the following array of arrays that I would like to search with array_column and return corresponding value at (n) column. At the moment my code only returns a column to the right or a column to the left.
Existing working code
function getField_UnitPrice($xmc) {
// Key values MUST ALWAYS BE UNIQUE.
// Values on the left.
$xmpd_db = array(
1 => array('EA_WTRESRVD', '122.67'),
2 => array('EA_WTRESRV', '184.00'),
3 => array('EA_FEEASBT', '300.00'),
4 => array('GL_WTREXTWP', '0.64'),
5 => array('GL_WTREXTWPA', '0.96')
);
$search_result = array_column($xmpd_db, 1, 0);
return $search_result[$xmc];
}
As you can see, this function returns a price for the code you look up but what if the array of arrays has more than 2 columns?
I think the answer lies in the line of code below but no matter how I change these indexes nothing more than the code column displays..
$search_result = array_column($xmpd_db, 1, 0);
Goal
function getField_Target($xmc, $column_index)
{
// Key values MUST ALWAYS BE UNIQUE.
// Values on the left.
$xmpd_db = array(
1 => array('EA', 'WTRESRVD', 'EMERGENCY SERVICE CALL', '122.67'),
2 => array('EA', 'WTRESRV', 'EMERGENCY SERVICE CALL AFTER HOURS', '184.00')
);
$search_result = array_column($xmpd_db, 0, 1);
return $search_result[$xmc];
}
Solution
/* $field, 1, 0 = EA */
$unit_of_measure = getField_Target($field, 1, 0);
/* $field, 1, 1 = WTRESRVD*/
$code = getField_Target($field, 1, 1);
/* $field, 1, 2 = EMERGENCY SERVICE CALL*/
$code_desc = getField_Target($field, 1, 2);
/* $field, 1, 3 = 000.00*/
$code_price = getField_Target($field, 1, 3);
// Call
echo $unit_of_measure . " - " . $code . " - " . $code_desc . " - " . $code_price . "<br>";
function getField_Target($xmc, $column_index = 1, $column_value = 3) {
// Key values MUST ALWAYS BE UNIQUE.
// Values on the left.
$xmpd_db = array(
1 => array('EA', 'EA_WTRESRVD', 'EMERGENCY SERVICE CALL', '000.10'),
2 => array('EA', 'EA_WTRESRV', 'EMERGENCY SERVICE CALL AFTER HOURS', '000.20')
);
$search_result = array_column($xmpd_db, $column_value, $column_index);
return $search_result[$xmc];
}
