What's the most quickly way to deserialize a Json in PHP? Actual I thought not to use external libraries but to do everything through my code. I downloaded the resource:

$variable = file_get_contents("http://api.football-data.org/alpha/soccerseasons/");
$decoded = json_decode($variable);
var_dump($decoded);

Now I have everything in the variable array decoded, as you advise me to do to get all the values of the json?

UPDATE - DECODED CONTENT:

array(11) { [0]=> object(stdClass)#1 (7) { ["_links"]=> object(stdClass)#2 (4) { ["self"]=> object(stdClass)#3 (1) { ["href"]=> string(52) "http://api.football-data.org/alpha/soccerseasons/394" } ["teams"]=> object(stdClass)#4 (1) { ["href"]=> string(58) "http://api.football-data.org/alpha/soccerseasons/394/teams" } ["fixtures"]=> object(stdClass)#5 (1) { ["href"]=> string(61) "http://api.football-data.org/alpha/soccerseasons/394/fixtures" } ["leagueTable"]=> object(stdClass)#6 (1) { ["href"]=> string(64) "http://api.football-data.org/alpha/soccerseasons/394/leagueTable" } } ["caption"]=> string(21) "1.

Try 

$decoded = json_decode($variable,true);

it should create an array. Easier to use

  • I know how to create an array, I want to know how to get all the objects in the memory array in a simple and fast way. – Harold Finch Aug 03 '15 at 07:26

    using true in the function return an array like JSON : '{"a":1,"b":2,"c":3,"d":4,"e":5}'. And array(5) { ["a"] => int(1) ["b"] => int(2) ["c"] => int(3) ["d"] => int(4) ["e"] => int(5) }. Easy to get the objects no ? – Alexis Aug 03 '15 at 07:28
