Hello,
I am currently storing data in json format in a fopen file.
$json = fopen("$root/apil/Controllers/json/" . $this->getX_id() . ".json", "w+");
$customers_results = $customers->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_OBJ);
foreach ($customers_results as $customer)
{
array_push($file_content , $customer->x_id);
}
fwrite($json, json_encode($file_content));
fclose($json);
So far all right the file is being stored in JSON format correctly:
And as expected I use this same file in another class, however , when performing a json_decode of the $file variable that "comes" from fopen me is returned the following error:
Warning: json_decode() expects parameter 1 to be string, resource given in ...
The code I use to collect the data from the file and later perform a json_decode is this:
$root = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'];
$x_id = $this->x_id();
$y_id = $this->y_id();
$file = fopen("$root/apil/Controllers/json/" . $y_id . ".json", "w+");
$aux = json_decode($file);
fclose($file); ...
It is worth mentioning , that after searching for solutions in Forums also tried to use the json_decode as follows $aux = json_decode(json_encode($file)); in this case no error is returned to me , however, when using the json_last_error() me is returned the error 4 that according to the documentation means JSON_ERROR_SYNTAX , is worth warning that the variable $y_id also has the correct content which in case is the name of my file.
Thank you in advance if anyone can help me with this problem.
In the error it says that the type of the $file variable is Resource and not string, confirm this by doing an echo gettype($file) to find the type of the $file variable, if it is Resource and not string, try somehow to convert to string

Thanks for the tip Douglas, really the file was of type Resource and to work with this type of data is a little laborious. As in the case I am using the query-only file I ended up using the following instruction
$linha = file_get_contents("$root/apil/Controllers/json/" . $x_id . ".json");– Thiago Drulla
Very good! Success brother!
