Accessing objects from a JSON

Question

I have the following file .json, in case I want to access initial data, called suzuki at the beginning of json, how do I get this information?

That one .json is responsible for making the data Seed in the database, and that field is that of the relationship, I just need to pick it up in the class.

The rest of the other data I can take the value and save in the bank.

        foreach ($files as $file) {
            $data = $this->getFileContent($file);

            foreach ($data as $item) {
                $slug = isset($data['u']) ? Str::slug($item['slug']) : $file['filename'];

                /* @var $dealership Dealership */
                $dealership = Dealership::query()->firstOrCreate([

    private function getFileContent(array $file)
    {
        return json_decode(file_get_contents($file['path']), true)[$file['filename']];
    }

Answer 1

In this specific case just use the key native of php that it will return the first key of your json.

foreach ($files as $file) {
     $data = $this->getFileContent($file);
     $key = key($data); // <-- "suzuki"

Editing

The problem is that when you call the function getFileContent she breaks the json showing the data from the array.

    json_decode(file_get_contents($file['path']), true)[$file['filename']]; // <-- aqui


    {
      "suzuki": 
      [ // <-- aqui
        {
          "n": "MOTO MAIS",
          "u": "moto-mais",
          "e": { ...

Then the Dice becomes inaccessible within the function.

Solution:

• First change the function getFileContent for:

  return json_decode(file_get_contents($file['path']), true);
  

• Then change the function fillDealerships thus:

  foreach ($files as $file) {
       $data = $this->getFileContent($file);
       $key = $file['filename']; // <-- "suzuki"
       $data = $data[$key]; // <-- array
