Hey Guys,
More out of interest rather than a specific project... so no rush to respond.
I often generate a php file and name it filename.xml.php and include the appropriate headers and structure. Can we do the same for JSON?
I can see we can use php to create a json file, but this means we have to run that file on a CRON to keep that JSON up to date.
<?php
// data strored in array$array = Array (
"0" => Array ( "id" => "01", "name" => "Tim Mason", "designation" => "System Architect" ),
"1" => Array ( "id" => "02", "name" => "Jennifer Laurence", "designation" => "Senior Programmer" ),
"2" => Array ( "id" => "03", "name" => "Medona Oliver", "designation" => "Office Manager" )
);// encode array to json
$json = json_encode($array);
$bytes = file_put_contents("myfile.json", $json);
echo "The number of bytes written are $bytes.";?>

Hi Tim,
What about something like this?
<?php
// example.json.php
// data stored in array
$array = Array (
"0" => [ "id" => "01", "name" => "Tim Mason", "designation" => "System Architect", ],
"1" => [ "id" => "02", "name" => "Jennifer Laurence", "designation" => "Senior Programmer", ],
"2" => [ "id" => "03", "name" => "Medona Oliver", "designation" => "Office Manager", ],
);
// output as json
header('Content-Type: application/json');
print json_encode($array);
