To fetch data from a JSON with Laravel, you can follow these steps:
- First, make sure you have a JSON file with the data you want to fetch. You can create a JSON file or fetch data from an API that returns JSON data.
- In your Laravel application, you can use the file_get_contents function to read the contents of the JSON file or use the json_decode function to convert the JSON string into a PHP array.
- Here is an example of how to fetch data from a JSON file in Laravel:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 |
public function fetchDataFromJsonFile()
{
// Path to the JSON file
$file = public_path('data.json');
// Read the contents of the file
$jsonString = file_get_contents($file);
// Convert the JSON string into a PHP array
$data = json_decode($jsonString, true);
// Access the data and do something with it
foreach ($data as $item) {
echo $item['name'] . ' - ' . $item['email'] . '<br>';
}
}

- You can also fetch data from an API that returns JSON data using Laravel's built-in HTTP client Guzzle. Here is an example of how to fetch data from an API in Laravel:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 |
use IlluminateSupportFacadesHttp;
public function fetchDataFromApi()
{
// Make a GET request to the API
$response = Http::get('https://api.example.com/data');
// Convert the JSON response into a PHP array
$data = $response->json();
// Access the data and do something with it
foreach ($data as $item) {
echo $item['name'] . ' - ' . $item['email'] . '<br>';
}
}

By following these steps, you can fetch data from a JSON file or API in your Laravel application.
