A slight modification to the previous post to allow for arrays containing mutli line strings.
haven't fully tested it with everything, but seems to work great for the stuff i've done
so far.
<?php
function print_r_reverse(&$output)
{
$expecting = 0; // 0=nothing in particular, 1=array open paren '(', 2=array element or
close paren ')'
$lines = explode("\n", $output);
$result = null;
$topArray = null;
$arrayStack = array();
$matches = null;
while (!empty($lines) && $result === null)
{
$line = array_shift($lines);
$trim = trim($line);
if ($trim == 'Array')
{
if ($expecting == 0)
{
$topArray = array();
$expecting = 1;
}
else
{
trigger_error("Unknown array.");
}
}
else if ($expecting == 1 && $trim == '(')
{
$expecting = 2;
}
else if ($expecting == 2 && preg_match('/^\[(.+?)\] \=\> (.+)$/',
$trim, $matches)) // array element
{
list ($fullMatch, $key, $element) = $matches;
if (trim($element) == 'Array')
{
$topArray[$key] = array();
$newTopArray =& $topArray[$key];
$arrayStack[] =& $topArray;
$topArray =& $newTopArray;
$expecting = 1;
}
else
{
$topArray[$key] = $element;
}
}
else if ($expecting == 2 && $trim == ')') // end current array
{
if (empty($arrayStack))
{
$result = $topArray;
}
else // pop into parent array
{
// safe array pop
$keys = array_keys($arrayStack);
$lastKey = array_pop($keys);
$temp =& $arrayStack[$lastKey];
unset($arrayStack[$lastKey]);
$topArray =& $temp;
}
}
// Added this to allow for multi line strings.
else if (!empty($trim) && $expecting == 2)
{
// Expecting close parent or element, but got just a string
$topArray[$key] .= "\n".$line;
}
else if (!empty($trim))
{
$result = $line;
}
}
$output = implode(n, $lines);
return $result;
}
/**
* @param string $output : The output of a multiple print_r calls, separated by newlines
* @return mixed[] : parseable elements of $output
*/
function print_r_reverse_multiple($output)
{
$result = array();
while (($reverse = print_r_reverse($output)) !== NULL)
{
$result[] = $reverse;
}
return $result;
}
$output = '
Array
(
[a] => apple
[b] => banana
[c] => Array
(
[0] => x
[1] => y
[2] => z
[3] => Array
(
[nest] => yes
[nest2] => Array
(
[nest] => some more
asffjaskkd
)
[nest3] => o rly?
)
)
)
some extra stuff
';
var_dump(print_r_reverse($output), $output);
?>
This should output
array(3) {
["a"]=>
string(5) "apple"
["b"]=>
string(6) "banana"
["c"]=>
array(4) {
[0]=>
string(1) "x"
[1]=>
string(1) "y"
[2]=>
string(1) "z"
[3]=>
array(3) {
["nest"]=>
string(3) "yes"
["nest2"]=>
array(1) {
["nest"]=>
string(40) "some more
asffjaskkd"
}
["nest3"]=>
string(6) "o rly?"
}
}
}
string(18) "nsome extra stuffn"
Added:
else if (!empty($trim) && $expecting == 2)
{
// Expecting close parent or element, but got just a string
$topArray[$key] .= "\n".$line;
}
