PHP Object Deserializer
Convert serialized PHP data to a javascript.
This fork
As the origin by bd808 was written in pure javascript I decided to rewrite using typescript.
Example
PHP:
$array = array(
"foo" => "bar",
"foobar" => "baz"
);
echo serialize($array);JS/TS
import phpObjectDeserializer from "php-obj-deserializer";
const php_str = 'a:2:{s:3:\"foo\";s:3:\"bar\";s:6:\"foobar\";s:3:\"baz\";}'
phpObjectDeserializer(php_str)
.then(console.log)
.catch(console.error)Result:
{
foo: 'bar',
foobar: 'baz'
}CommonJS
var phpObjDeserializer = require("php-obj-deserializer")
var php_str = 'a:2:{s:3:\"foo\";s:3:\"bar\";s:6:\"foobar\";s:3:\"baz\";}'
phpObjDeserializer.default()
.then(console.log)
.catch(console.error)Anatomy of a PHP serialize()'ed value:
| Type | Anatomy | -- |
|---|---|---|
| String | s:size:value; | String values are always in double quotes |
| Integer | i:value; | |
| Boolean | b:value; | does not store true or false, does store 1 or 0 |
| Null | N; | |
| Array | a:size:{key;value;...} | key and value repeat for all elements. Array keys are always integers or strings |
| Object | O:strlen(object_name):object_name:object_size:{s:strlen(property_name):property_name:property_definition;...} | strlen of property name, property_name and property_definition repeat for all properties in the object |
PHP Serialization Function Implementation Notes by the comunity:
"null => 'value'" equates to 's:0:"";s:5:"value";'
"true => 'value'" equates to 'i:1;s:5:"value";'
"false => 'value'" equates to 'i:0;s:5:"value";'
"array(whatever the contents) => 'value'" equates to an "illegal offset type" warning because you can't use an array as a key; however, if you use a variable containing an array as a key, it will equate to 's:5:"Array";s:5:"value";', and attempting to use an object as a key will result in the same behavior as using an array will.
