Turn database result into array

Hi guys, can you please help me. How to get an hierarchical php structure from a db table, in php array, or JSON, but with the following format:

[
  {
     "attributes":{
        "id":"111"
     },
     "data":"Some node title",
     "children":[
        {
           "attributes":{
              "id":"555"
           },
           "data":"A sub node title here"
        }
     ],
     "state":"open"
  },
  {
     "attributes":{
        "id":"222"
     },
     "data":"Other main node",
     "children":[
        {
           "attributes":{
              "id":"666"
           },
           "data":"Another sub node"
        }
     ],
     "state":"open"
  }
]

My SQL table contains the fields: ID, PARENT, ORDER, TITLE

Can you please help me with this? I'm going crazy trying to get this.

Many thanks in advance. Daniel

Two pass foreach does the trick. This will link all child to their parents recursively.

$structure = array();
foreach( $array as $row ) { //add rows to array by id
    $structure[ $row["id"] ] = $row + array( "children" => array() );
}
foreach( $structure as &$row ) { //link children to parents
    if( ! is_null( $row["parent"] ) ) {
        $structure[ $row["parent"] ]["children"][] =& $row;    
    }
}
