So I am probably making api system and I am trying to get the client req api. I checked some tutorials and I found I could use :
$data = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
It's works but I am getting string like : action=get&id=theapikeygoeshere.
And I need to get only the text after id= , How can I do that?
Thanks!
parse the query string using parse_str:
<?php
$arr = array();
parse_str('action=get&id=theapikeygoeshere', $arr);
print_r($arr);
?>
This gives:
Array
(
[action] => get
[id] => theapikeygoeshere
)
$arr['id'] will give you the value of the parameter id
$_GET-super global instead of parsing it yourself?I think the best thing is to use $_GET['id'] but if you want to extract any thing from the QUERY_STRING use
parse_str($_SERVER["QUERY_STRING"], $output);
var_dump($output["id"]);
$_GET does. That code basically just building your own $_GET-array, which doesn't make much sense.You can do so by using $_GET['id']. :) $_GET can be used for any URL parameters like those.
E.g.:
$info = $_GET['id']
parse_str()$id = $_GET['id']? php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.get.php
