php-laravelHow do I parse JSON data using Laravel and PHP?

Parsing JSON data using Laravel and PHP is quite easy. Here's an example of how to do it:

<?php
$json = '{"name":"John","age":30,"city":"New York"}';

$data = json_decode($json);

echo $data->name;
echo $data->age;
echo $data->city;

// Output:
John
30
New York

The code above uses the json_decode() function to parse the JSON data into an object. Then, we access the data by using the object's properties (name, age, and city).

The parts of the code above are as follows:

• $json: This is the JSON data that we'll be parsing.
• $data: This is the object that stores the parsed data from the json_decode() function.
• echo $data->name;: This is how we access the name property of the $data object.

For more information, please see the PHP json_decode() documentation.
