Convert php array of objects to javascript array

Question

if i have an associative array in php.

Say, in the same view, i have $params array:

$parameters = array(
 'parameter1'=>'value1',
 'parameter2'=>'value2
);

Is there any way or php function or even javascript function to convert the php array to javascript array? in such a way that if we have the converted array, jsParameters, you'd be able to access it's fields and values like :

console.log(jsParameters.parameter1);
console.log(jsParameters.parameter2);

that will output, 'value1' and 'value2'. Is there a way? many Thanks!

Answer 1

Use json_encode:

console.log(<?php echo json_encode($parameters); ?>);

Answer 2

Use json_encode:

echo json_encode($parameters);

Answer 3

You should be able to call json_encode on the array, and echo that back to your application.
