Convert laravel object to array

Laravel output:

Array
(
[0] = stdClass Object
(
[ID] = 5

)

[1] = stdClass Object
(
[ID] = 4

)

)

I want to convert this into normal array. Just want to remove that `stdClass Object`. I also tried using `->toArray();` but I get an error:
>Call to a member function toArray() on a non-object.

How can I fix this?

You need to iterate over the array

for ($i = 0, $c = count($array); $i < $c; ++$i) {
$array[$i] = (array) $array[$i];
}


ans use `(array)` conversion because you have array of objects of Std class and not object itself

**Example:**

$users = DB::table('users')->get();

var_dump($users);

echo "<br /><br />";

for ($i = 0, $c = count($users); $i < $c; ++$i) {
$users[$i] = (array) $users[$i];
}
var_dump($users);
exit;

Output for this is:

array(1) { [0]=> object(stdClass)#258 (8) { ["id"]=> int(1) ["user_name"]=> string(5) "admin" ["email"]=> string(11) "admin@admin" ["passwd"]=> string(60) "$2y$10$T/0fW18gPGgz0CILTy2hguxNpcNjYZHsTyf5dvpor9lYMw/mtKYfi" ["balance"]=> string(4) "0.00" ["remember_token"]=> string(60) "moouXQOJFhtxkdl9ClEXYh9ioBSsRp28WZZbLPkJskcCr0325TyrxDK4al5H" ["created_at"]=> string(19) "2014-10-01 12:00:00" ["updated_at"]=> string(19) "2014-09-27 12:20:54" } }

array(1) { [0]=> array(8) { ["id"]=> int(1) ["user_name"]=> string(5) "admin" ["email"]=> string(11) "admin@admin" ["passwd"]=> string(60) "$2y$10$T/0fW18gPGgz0CILTy2hguxNpcNjYZHsTyf5dvpor9lYMw/mtKYfi" ["balance"]=> string(4) "0.00" ["remember_token"]=> string(60) "moouXQOJFhtxkdl9ClEXYh9ioBSsRp28WZZbLPkJskcCr0325TyrxDK4al5H" ["created_at"]=> string(19) "2014-10-01 12:00:00" ["updated_at"]=> string(19) "2014-09-27 12:20:54" } }

as expected. Object of `stdClass` has been converted to array.

foreach($yourArrayName as $object)
{
$arrays[] = $object->toArray();
}
// Dump array with object-arrays
dd($arrays);

Or when `toArray()` fails because it's a stdClass

foreach($yourArrayName as $object)
{
$arrays[] = (array) $object;
}
// Dump array with object-arrays
dd($arrays);

Not working? Maybe you can find your answer here:

this worked for me:

$data=DB::table('table_name')->select(.......)->get();
$data=array_map(function($item){
return (array) $item;
},$data);

or

$data=array_map(function($item){
return (array) $item;
},DB::table('table_name')->select(.......)->get());

You can also get all the result always as array by changing

// application/config/database.php

'fetch' => PDO::FETCH_CLASS,
// to
'fetch' => PDO::FETCH_ASSOC,

Hope this will help.

I suggest you simply do this within your method


public function MyAwesomeMethod($returnQueryAs = null)
{
$tablename = 'YourAwesomeTable';

if($returnQueryAs == 'array')
{
DB::connection()->setFetchMode(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
}

return DB::table($tablename)->get();
}

With this all you need is to pass the string 'array' as your argument and Voila! An Associative array is returned.

If you want to get only ID in array, can use array_map:

$data = array_map(function($object){
return $object->ID;
}, $data);

With that, return an array with ID in every pos.

Its very simple. You can use like this :-

Suppose You have one users table and you want to fetch the id only
$users = DB::table('users')->select('id')->get();
$users = json_decode(json_encode($users)); //it will return you stdclass object
$users = json_decode(json_encode($users),true); //it will return you data in array
echo '<pre>'; print_r($users);
Hope it helps

Just in case somebody still lands here looking for an answer. It can be done using plain PHP.
An easier way is to reverse-json the object.

function objectToArray(&$object)
{
return @json_decode(json_encode($object), true);
}

```
$res = ActivityServer::query()->select('channel_id')->where(['id' => $id])->first()->attributesToArray();
```

I use `get()`, it returns an object, I use the `attributesToArray()` to change the object attribute to an array.
