json_validate

(PHP 8 >= 8.3.0)

json_validateChecks if a string contains valid JSON

Description

json_validate(string$json, int$depth = 512, int$flags = 0): bool

Returns whether the given chaîne de caractères is syntactically valid JSON. If json_validate() returns true, json_decode() will successfully decode the given string when using the same depth and flags.

If json_validate() returns false, the cause can be retrieved using json_last_error() and json_last_error_msg().

json_validate() uses less memory than json_decode() if the decoded JSON payload is not used, because it does not need to build the array or object structure containing the payload.

Attention

Calling json_validate() immediately before json_decode() will unnecessarily parse the string twice, as json_decode() implicitly performs validation during decoding.

json_validate() should therefore only be used if the decode JSON payload is not immediately used and knowing whether the string contains valid JSON is needed.
