Installation

Install the package via Composer:

Usage

First, include the Composer autoload file and create a new instance of JsonModifier by providing the path to your JSON file:

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

use PhpJsonModifier\JsonModifier;

$json = new JsonModifier('path/to/your/jsonfile.json');

Retrieving Data

To retrieve all data from a specific index:

$data = $json->index('items')->get();

Updating Data

To update specific fields where a condition is met:

$update = $json->index('items')->update(
    ['id', '3'], // Condition: WHERE id = 3
    [
        ['unitprice' => '224.50'],
        ['color' => '#fff']
    ]
);

Adding Data

To add a new item to the JSON file:

$add = $json->index('items')->add([
    "id" => "10",
    "name" => "black shirt",
    "unitprice" => "150.00"
]);

Searching Data

To search for items matching specific criteria:

$search = $json->index('items')->search(['id' => '2'])->get();

To retrieve the first item that matches the criteria:

$search = $json->index('items')->search(['id' => '2'])->first();
