json_decode — Transforms a JSON into a valid associative array or object.
Basic Usage:{$user|json_decode}Depending on the value of $user this would return a array, e.g. ["username"=>"tplix","email"=>"[email protected]"].
| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | bool | No | true or false |
When you pass true, it tells PHP to return an associative array instead of an object.
{$user|json_decode} # renders: stdClass Object ([name] => Khawar[age] => 35)
{$user|json_decode:true} # renders: ["name"=>"Khawar","age"=>35]
