Using the Parse PHP API - I am calling a query to return an object from the table which is working great. Upon var_dump($parseobjecthere) I receive a nice hierarchical output of the object which I'd like to convert to an associative array. Does anybody have any suggestions for how this may happen - as I can't seem to locate anything relevant in the documentation.
Thanks in advance,
Sean
I just checked their docs and they say they return JSON so perhaps all you need to do is :
$array = json_decode($parseobjecthere, 1);
print_r($array);
json_decode() expects parameter 1 to be string, object given I'll attempt to cast to a string and see how it goes! Thanks for the direction. Could you advise where in the docs you found this?
I'm not sure it's a full answer - so I'll leave the question open to see if somebody with better skill than myself can give a more appropriate answer.
In my solution - I only needed to extract the serverData element which was protected. Upon casting the object to an array - the key *serverData was extracted using the null character format - (array) $parseObject["\0*\0serverData"]
This can then be iterated through as a standard array.
Thanks for the input from everybody. It seems like there must be a better way around doing it so the function is still marked with //TODO - Rejig this!
