将数据发送到站点以获取带有php的Json

Question

I'm having an issue, the thing is that I was reading a json file with jquery, and it was working well, but now I have to make it read it in php, but the thing is that I was using some data to obtain the parts of the json with:

dataString = "id=" + id + "&todos=" + false;
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "http://www.url.com/example",
data: dataString,
dataType: "json",

success: function( data, textStatus, jqXHR) {

And with this I had no problem, since I was sending the data to the site so it can give me the info that I wanted, but I have no clue of how to do it in php, i was trying with

$str = file_get_contents('http://www.url.com/example.json');
$json = json_decode($str, true); 
var_dump($str);

But of course the site its returning me nothing since I'm not sending the data

I hope there's a way. Thanks!

You should use curl or fsockopen if the first is not present and cannot be enabled (pretty rare case).

Here how you do that with curl

<?php
$ch = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, array(
    'id' => $id,
    'todos' => false
));
$json = json_decode( curl_exec($ch) );
