A PHP function to format a JSON string in a human-readable manner.

Usage

Using the function is easy. You just include the file with the function in, then pass in a JSON string.

require '../src/format_json.php';

// Create a random array, and fill it with some sample data
$sample_array = array(
	"foo" => "bar",
	"bar" => "foo",
	"hello" => array(
		"jim",
		"world"
	),
	"multi" => array(
		"dimensions"=>true
	)
);

// Encode the array into a JSON string
$json_string = json_encode( $sample_array );

// Output the formatted string
echo format_json( $json_string );
