Simple key white-list filter:
<?php
$arr = array('a' => 123, 'b' => 213, 'c' => 321);
$allowed = array('b', 'c');
print_r(array_intersect_key($arr, array_flip($allowed)));
?>
Will return:
Array
(
[b] => 213
[c] => 321
)
(PHP 5 >= 5.1.0, PHP 7)
array_intersect_key — Calcula la intersección de arrays usando sus claves para la comparación
$array1
, array $array2
[, array $...
] )
array_intersect_key() devuelve un array
que contiene todos los valores de array1
que tienen claves que están presentes en todos los argumentos.
array1
El array con las claves maestras para verificar.
array2
Un array con el que comparar las claves.
...
Una lista variable de arrays para comparar.
Devuelve un array asociativo que contiene todas las entradas de
array1
que tienen claves que están presentes en todos
los argumentos.
Ejemplo #1 Ejemplo de array_intersect_key()
<?php
$array1 = array('blue' => 1, 'red' => 2, 'green' => 3, 'purple' => 4);
$array2 = array('green' => 5, 'blue' => 6, 'yellow' => 7, 'cyan' => 8);
var_dump(array_intersect_key($array1, $array2));
?>
El resultado del ejemplo sería:
array(2) { ["blue"]=> int(1) ["green"]=> int(3) }
En el ejemplo se puede ver que sólo las claves 'blue'
y 'green' están presentes en ambos arrays, por lo que
son devueltas. Observe también que los valores de las claves
'blue' y 'green' difieren entre
los dos arrays. Sigue habiendo coincidencia porque solamente se verifican las claves.
Los valores devueltos son los de array1
.
Las dos claves de los pares clave => valor son consideradas iguales sólo si (string) $clave1 === (string) $clave2 . En otras palabras se ejecuta una verificación estricta de tipos, por lo que la representación del string debe ser la misma.
Simple key white-list filter:
<?php
$arr = array('a' => 123, 'b' => 213, 'c' => 321);
$allowed = array('b', 'c');
print_r(array_intersect_key($arr, array_flip($allowed)));
?>
Will return:
Array
(
[b] => 213
[c] => 321
)
Note that the order of the keys in the returned array is the same as the order of the keys in the source array. eg:
<?php
$array = array(
'two' => 'a',
'three' => 'b',
'one' => 'c',
);
$keyswant = array(
'one' => '',
'three' => '',
);
print_r(array_intersect_key($array, $keyswant));
?>
Shows:
Array
(
[three] => b
[one] => c
)
[Editor's note: changed array_merge_recursive() to array_replace_recursive() to fix the script]
Here is a better way to merge settings using some defaults as a whitelist.
<?php
$defaults = [
'id' => 123456,
'client_id' => null,
'client_secret' => null,
'options' => [
'trusted' => false,
'active' => false
]
];
$options = [
'client_id' => 789,
'client_secret' => '5ebe2294ecd0e0f08eab7690d2a6ee69',
'client_password' => '5f4dcc3b5aa765d61d8327deb882cf99', // ignored
'client_name' => 'IGNORED', // ignored
'options' => [
'active' => true
]
];
var_dump(
array_replace_recursive($defaults,
array_intersect_key(
$options, $defaults
)
)
);
?>
Output:
array (size=4)
'id' => int 123456
'client_id' => int 789
'client_secret' => string '5ebe2294ecd0e0f08eab7690d2a6ee69' (length=32)
'options' =>
array (size=2)
'trusted' => boolean false
'active' => boolean true
I have found the following helpful:
<?PHP
function array_merge_default($default, $data) {
$intersect = array_intersect_key($data, $default); //Get data for which a default exists
$diff = array_diff_key($default, $data); //Get defaults which are not present in data
return $diff + $intersect; //Arrays have different keys, return the union of the two
}
?>
It's use is like both of the functions it uses, but keeps defaults and _only_ defaults. It's designed for key arrays, and i'm not sure how it will work on numeric indexed arrays.
Example:
<?PHP
$default = array(
"one" => 1,
"two" => 2
);
$untrusted = array(
"one" => 42,
"three" => 3
);
var_dump(array_merge_default($default, $untrusted));
array(2) {
["two"]=>
int(2)
["one"]=>
int(42)
}
?>
If you want an array that has no key value pairs added from the second array:
$new = array_intersect_key($b, $a) + $a;
Regarding php at keithtylerdotcom solution to emulate
<?php
$z = someFuncReturningAnArray()['some_key'];
?>
His recommended solution will still return an array. To get the value of a single key in an array returned by a function, simply add implode() to the recipe:
<?php
function someFuncReturningAnArray() {
return array(
'a' => 'b',
'c' => 'd',
'e' => 'f',
'g' => 'h',
'i' => 'j'
);
}
//traditional way
$temp = someFuncReturningAnArray();
$b = $temp['a'];
echo print_r($b, 1) . "\n----------\n";
//keithtylerdotcom one-line method
$b = array_intersect_key(someFuncReturningAnArray(), array('a'=>''));
echo print_r($b, 1) . "\n----------\n";
//better one line method
$b = implode('', array_intersect_key(someFuncReturningAnArray(), array('a'=>'')));
echo print_r($b, 1) . "\n----------\n";
?>
Just a simple script if you want to use one array, which contains only zeros and ones, as mask for another one (both arrays must have the same size of course). $outcome is an array that contains only those values from $source where $mask is equal to 1.
<?php
$outcome = array_values(array_intersect_key( array_values($source), array_filter(array_values($mask)) ));
?>
PS: the array_values() function is necessary to ensure that both arrays have the same numbering/keys, otherwise your masking does not behave as you expect.
Enjoy!
This functionality is now implemented in the PEAR package PHP_Compat.
More information about using this function without upgrading your version of PHP can be found on the below link:
http://pear.php.net/package/PHP_Compat
Here it is a more obvious way to implement the function:
if (!function_exists('array_intersect_key')) {
function array_intersect_key()
{
$arrs = func_get_args();
$result = array_shift($arrs);
foreach ($arrs as $array) {
foreach ($result as $key => $v) {
if (!array_key_exists($key, $array)) {
unset($result[$key]);
}
}
}
return $result;
}
}
Jesse: no, array_intersect_key does not accomplish the same thing as what you posted:
array_flip (array_intersect (array_flip ($a), array_flip ($b)))
because when the array is flipped, values become keys. having duplicate values is not a problem, but having duplicate keys is. array_flip resolves it by keeping only one of the duplicates and discarding the rest. by the time you start intersecting, you've already lost information.
in case you came here looking for a function that returns an array containing the values of `all` arrays with intersecting keys:
<?php
function array_merge_on_key($key, $array1, $array2) {
$arrays = array_slice(func_get_args(), 1);
$r = array();
foreach($arrays as &$a) {
if(array_key_exists($key, $a)) {
$r[] = $a[$key];
continue;
}
}
return $r;
}
// example:
$array1 = array("id" => 12, "name" => "Karl");
$array2 = array("id" => 4, "name" => "Franz");
$array3 = array("id" => 9, "name" => "Helmut");
$array4 = array("id" => 10, "name" => "Kurt");
$result = array_merge_on_key("id", $array1, $array2, $array3, $array4);
echo implode(",", $result); // => 12,4,9,10
?>
<?php
/**
* calculates intersection of two arrays like array_intersect_key but recursive
*
* @param array/mixed master array
* @param array array that has the keys which should be kept in the master array
* @return array/mixed cleand master array
*/
function myIntersect($master, $mask) {
if (!is_array($master)) { return $master; }
foreach ($master as $k=>$v) {
if (!isset($mask[$k])) { unset ($master[$k]); continue; } // remove value from $master if the key is not present in $mask
if (is_array($mask[$k])) { $master[$k] = $this->myIntersect($master[$k], $mask[$k]); } // recurse when mask is an array
// else simply keep value
}
return $master;
}
?>
Here is a faster version than those shown below, with optimisation for the case when only two arrays are passed. In my tests with a 10000 item first array and a 5000 item second array (run 20 times) this function ran in 1.89 seconds compared with 2.66 for the version posted by dak. For a three array case, same as above but with the third array containing 3333 values, the timing is 3.25 for this version compared with 3.7 for dak's version.
<?php
if (!function_exists('array_intersect_key'))
{
function array_intersect_key($isec, $keys)
{
$argc = func_num_args();
if ($argc > 2)
{
for ($i = 1; !empty($isec) && $i < $argc; $i++)
{
$arr = func_get_arg($i);
foreach (array_keys($isec) as $key)
{
if (!isset($arr[$key]))
{
unset($isec[$key]);
}
}
}
return $isec;
}
else
{
$res = array();
foreach (array_keys($isec) as $key)
{
if (isset($keys[$key]))
{
$res[$key] = $isec[$key];
}
}
return $res;
}
}
}
?>
