JSON Library

A simple wrapper around the json_encode and json_decode functions that handle errors with exceptions as opposed to using the built-in functions from PHP.

Encoding

Turn a php variable into a json string (and throw an error during failure).

<?php

use phpninjas\JSON\JSON;
use phpninjas\JSON\JsonEncodingException;

try {
    $jsonString = JSON::encode($var);
}catch(JsonEncodingException $e){
    // handle exception
}

Decoding

Turn a JSON string into a php variable (and throw an error during failure).

<?php

use phpninjas\JSON\JSON;
use phpninjas\JSON\JsonDecodingException;

try {
    $var = JSON::decode($jsonString);
}catch(JsonDecodingException $e){
    // handle exception
}
