php merge two JSON arrays into one object

Question

I'm trying to merge two different json arrays into one object. The json arrays have different data (in terms of the data itself and the structure):

datafortable = [{"name": 3,"amount": "1190042293","category": "cars"}]
dataforchart = [{"name": 3,"amount": "5801"}]

What I would like to get is something like this:

datafortableandchart = {
    "datafortable": [
        {
            "name": 3,
            "amount": "1190042293",
            "category": "cars"
        }
    ],
    "dataforchart": [
        {
            "name": 3,
            "amount": "5801"
        }
    ]
}

Then, in javascript I would like te be able to refer to the different json arrays like this:

dataprovider: datafortableandchart.datafortable

Is this possible?

@dexter `echo json_encode(array_map('json_decode', compact('datafortable', 'dataforchart')), JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);` — splash58, Dec 11 '17 at 09:02
@splash58 forgot to put the arrays between `''`. Problem solved now. thanks! — dexter, Dec 11 '17 at 13:56

First convert them to array then use array_merge to merge to arrays and again json_encode them

json_encode(array_merge(json_decode($datafortable , true),json_decode($dataforchart , true)))
