I am trying to retrieve information from a JSON file using JSONReader (I've implemented JSONReader to my PHP configuration) and I am trying to get the information from a simple JSON file (see below) about the whole part of the array (part, where Home Lawrence Library is) and I am struggling with this.
To be honest, I don't know how to use JSONReader properly.
This is my code:
inline <?php $reader = new JSONReader();
$reader->open('http://www.example.com/news.json');
while ($reader->read()) {
switch($reader->tokenType) {
case JSONReader::ARRAY_START:
echo "Array start:
";
break;
case JSONReader::ARRAY_END:
echo "Array end.
";
break;
case JSONReader::VALUE:
echo " - " . $reader->value . "
";
break;
}
}
$reader->close();
?>
It is just printing array start and array end, but does not print the value.
JSON code:
{
"markers": [
{
"homeTeam": "Lawrence Library",
"awayTeam": "LUGip",
"markerImage": "images/red.png",
"information": "Linux users group meets second Wednesday of each month.",
"fixture": "Wednesday 7pm",
"capacity": "",
"previousScore": ""
},
{
"homeTeam": "Hamilton Library",
"awayTeam": "LUGip HW SIG",
"markerImage": "images/white.png",
"information": "Linux users can meet the first Tuesday of the month to work out harward and configuration issues.",
"fixture": "Tuesday 7pm",
"capacity": "",
"tv": ""
},
{
"homeTeam": "Applebees",
"awayTeam": "After LUPip Mtg Spot",
"markerImage": "images/newcastle.png",
"information": "Some of us go there after the main LUGip meeting, drink brews, and talk.",
"fixture": "Wednesday whenever",
"capacity": "2 to 4 pints",
"tv": ""
}
] }

Btw, I am trying to parse big JSON files so please do not suggest to use json_decode or curl methods.
