PHP - Extracting a property from an array of objects

Viewed 71 times

I've got an array of cats objects:

$cats = Array
    (
        [0] => stdClass Object
            (
                [id] => 15
            ),
        [1] => stdClass Object
            (
                [id] => 18
            ),
        [2] => stdClass Object
            (
                [id] => 23
            )
)

and I want to extract an array of cats' IDs in 1 line (not a function nor a loop).

I was thinking about using array_walk with create_function but I don't know how to do it.

Any idea?

If you have PHP 5.5 or later, the best way is to use the built in function array_column():

$idCats = array_column($cats, 'id');

But the son has to be an array or converted to an array

Here's what worked best for me when trying to script this (in case anyone else comes across this like I did):

$ pecl -d php_suffix=5.6 install <package>
$ pecl uninstall -r <package>

$ pecl -d php_suffix=7.0 install <package>
$ pecl uninstall -r <package>

$ pecl -d php_suffix=7.1 install <package>
$ pecl uninstall -r <package>

The -d php_suffix=<version> piece allows you to set config values at run time vs pre-setting them with pecl config-set. The uninstall -r bit does not actually uninstall it (from the docs):

vagrant@homestead:~$ pecl help uninstall
pecl uninstall [options] [channel/]<package> ...
Uninstalls one or more PEAR packages.  More than one package may be
specified at once.  Prefix with channel name to uninstall from a
channel not in your default channel (pecl.php.net)

Options:
  ...
  -r, --register-only
        do not remove files, only register the packages as not installed
  ...

The uninstall line is necessary otherwise installing it will remove any previously installed version, even if it was for a different PHP version (ex: Installing an extension for PHP 7.0 would remove the 5.6 version if the package was still registered as installed).

You either iterate the array, searching for the particular record (ok in a one time only search) or build a hashmap using another associative array.

For the former, something like this

$item = null;
foreach($array as $struct) {
    if ($v == $struct->ID) {
        $item = $struct;
        break;
    }
}

See this question and subsequent answers for more information on the latter - Reference PHP array by multiple indexes

You can use reduce and check if the checked property is true, then push (As pointed out by assoron) the value to the accumulator - there is no need for 2 loops:

const arr = [
  { "value": "abc", "checked": true },
  { "value": "xyz", "checked": false },
  { "value": "lmn", "checked": true }
]

const filtered = arr.reduce((a, o) => (o.checked && a.push(o.value), a), [])      
console.log(filtered)

Never used any of those, but they look interesting..

Take a look at Gearman as well.. more overhead in systems like these but you get other cool stuff :) Guess it depends on your needs ..
