在Javascript中使用来自API（在PHP中加载）的json [关闭]

Question

I have a question about using json (loaded in php) in javascript.
I load the JSON from an API. Someone said I could best do this with curl?

I've searched information about curl but I didn't found what I needed. This is what I do now:

$url='http://api.urlname.com/api/gateway/call/1.4/getApp?appid=2631';
$str = file_get_contents($url);
$data = json_decode($str);

Does someone know how I can do this?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, cURL is more advanced than just using file_get_contents, you can do lots of things with cURL.

If we rewrite your code and make it use cURL, it'd look like this:

$ch = curl_init("http://api.urlname.com/api/gateway/call/1.4/getApp?appid=2631");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$str = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$data = json_decode($str);

as I said cURL is a pretty customizable, if you wish to go farther and do complex requests, you can always see the documentations here.
