Laravel - Blade; How to cycle through nested json objects with different top level titles, in a @foreach loop

Question

Most languages let you cycle through a json object, getting the top level names.

object = {
    "a": {"inner json objects"},
    "b" : {"..."},
    "C" : {"..."}
}

For example in html.twig the syntax is as such:

{% for title, section  in object %}
  // do something with title (ie. a, b, c)
  // do something (cycle through) with section(ie. '...')
{% endfor %}

I want to do the equivalent in blade.php.

I have tried multiple variations on the blade syntax, such as

@foreach(json_encode($object) as $title)

but I can't figure it out, and I can't find any appropriate documentation online. This stackoverflow question is the closest I could find., but it isn't quite appropriate as it doesn't stipulate the object I'm grabbing from

Any help would be appreciated.

`foreach ($thing as $key => $value)` ? and why would you be calling `json_encode` that turns something into a string ... the PHP manual is your friend — lagbox, Mar 26 '21 at 12:40
YES! thank you, that worked. @foreach($theme as $title => $section) — Tomk07, Mar 26 '21 at 12:45
write it up as an answer there, and I'll accept/ upvote it if you want. Cheers — Tomk07, Mar 26 '21 at 12:50

You are probably just looking for the foreach syntax that allows you to define the key name as well:

foreach ($something as $key => $value)

Everything inside the (...) in the Blade @foreach(...) directive is just regular PHP, by the way.

This should answer your question. You'll need to combine them since PHP foreach loops only loop one array at a time.

You could do a nested loop as well if that works for your needs.
