I am using stringify to post an object to php in php even integers are string how can i fix this?

I am using stringify to post an object to php,

In php i use json_decode($object,true) to get the object back into a object for and not a string.

However the values stay strings even for integers.

My question is there a way to decode it to it's original form ?

ints to ints. string to stings ..

Thanks

Solution

  • Not sure what you're getting at:

    php > var_dump(json_decode(42)); // decoding a PHP int
int(42)
php > var_dump(json_decode('42')); // decoding a PHP string
int(42)
php > var_dump(json_decode('"42"')); // decoding a json string, containing a number
int(42)
php > var_dump(json_decode('foo')); // decoding invalid json
NULL
php > var_dump(json_decode('"foo"')); // decoding a valid string
string(3) "foo"
php > var_dump(json_decode('{"42":"foo"}')); // json object
object(stdClass)#1 (1) {
  ["42"]=>
  string(3) "foo"
}
