array_replace

(PHP 5 >= 5.3.0, PHP 7, PHP 8)

array_replaceSubstitui elementos de arrays passados no primeiro array

Descrição

array_replace(array $array, array ...$replacements): array

array_replace() substitui os valores de array por valores com as mesmas keys em cada um dos seguintes arrays. Se uma key do primeiro array existir no segundo array, seu valor será substituído pelo valor do segundo array. Se a key existir no segundo array, e não no primeiro, ela será criada no primeiro array. Se uma key existir apenas na primeira matriz, ela será deixada como está. Se vários arrays forem passados para substituição, eles serão processados em ordem, os arrays posteriores sobrescrevendo os valores anteriores.

array_replace() não é recursivo: substituirá os valores no primeiro array por qualquer tipo que esteja no segundo array.

Parâmetros

array

O array no qual os elementos são substituídos.

replacements

Arrays dos quais os elementos serão extraídos. Os valores dos arrays posteriores substituem os valores anteriores.

Valor Retornado

Retorna um array.

Exemplos

Exemplo #1 array_replace() exemplo

<?php
$base
= array("laranja", "banana", "maçã", "framboesa");
$substituicoes = array(0 => "abacaxi", 4 => "cereja");
$substituicoes2 = array(0 => "uva");

$cesta = array_replace($base, $substituicoes, $substituicoes2);
print_r($cesta);
?>

O exemplo acima produzirá:

Array
(
    [0] => uva
    [1] => banana
    [2] => maçã
    [3] => framboesa
    [4] => cereja
)

Here is a simple array_replace_keys function:

/**
     * This function replaces the keys of an associate array by those supplied in the keys array
     *
     * @param $array target associative array in which the keys are intended to be replaced
     * @param $keys associate array where search key => replace by key, for replacing respective keys
     * @return  array with replaced keys
     */
    private function array_replace_keys($array, $keys)
    {
        foreach ($keys as $search => $replace) {
            if ( isset($array[$search])) {
                $array[$replace] = $array[$search];
                unset($array[$search]);
            }
        }

        return $array;
    }

// Test Drive

print_r(array_replace_keys(['one'=>'apple', 'two'=>'orange'], ['one'=>'ett', 'two'=>'tvo']);
// Output
array(
'ett'=>'apple',
'tvo'=>'orange'
)

Simple function to replace array keys. Note you have to manually select wether existing keys will be overrided.

/**
  * @param array $array
  * @param array $replacements
  * @param boolean $override
  * @return array
  */
function array_replace_keys(array $array, array $replacements, $override = false) {
    foreach ($replacements as $old => $new) {
        if(is_int($new) || is_string($new)){
            if(array_key_exists($old, $array)){
                if(array_key_exists($new, $array) && $override === false){
                    continue;
                }
                $array[$new] = $array[$old];
                unset($array[$old]);
            }
        }
    }
    return $array;

To get exactly same result like in PHP 5.3, the foreach loop in your code should look like:

<?php
...
$count = func_num_args();

for (
$i = 1; $i < $count; $i++) {
   ...
}
...
?>

Check on this code:

<?php
$base
= array('id' => NULL, 'login' => NULL, 'credit' => NULL);
$arr1 = array('id' => 2, 'login' => NULL, 'credit' => 5);
$arr2 = array('id' => NULL, 'login' => 'john.doe', 'credit' => 100);
$result = array_replace($base, $arr1, $arr2);

/*
correct output:

array(3) {
   "id" => NULL
   "login" => string(8) "john.doe"
   "credit" => int(100)
}

your output:

array(3) {
   "id" => int(2)
   "login" => NULL
   "credit" => int(5)
}
*/
?>

Function array_replace "replaces elements from passed arrays into the first array" -- this means replace from top-right to first, then from top-right - 1 to first, etc, etc...

If the arrays are associative (that is, their keys are strings), then I believe this function is identical to (the older) array_merge.

I would like to add to my previous note about my polecat_array_replace function that if you want to add a single dimensional array to a multi, all you must do is pass the matching internal array key from the multi as the initial argument as such:

$array1 = array( "berries" => array( "strawberry" => array( "color" => "red", "food" => "desserts"), "dewberry" = array( "color" => "dark violet", "food" => "pies"), );

$array2 = array( "food" => "wine");

$array1["berries"]["dewberry"] = polecat_array_replace($array1["berries"]["dewberry"], $array2);

This is will replace the value for "food" for "dewberry" with "wine".

The function will also do the reverse and add a multi to a single dimensional array or even a 2 tier array to a 5 tier as long as the heirarchy tree is identical.

I hope this helps atleast one person for all that I've gained from this site.

I got hit with a noob mistake. :)

When the function was called more than once, it threw a function redeclare error of course.  The enviroment I was coding in never called it more than once but I caught it in testing and here is the fully working revision.  A simple logical step was all that was needed.

With PHP 5.3 still unstable for Debian Lenny at this time and not knowing if array_replace would work with multi-dimensional arrays, I wrote my own.  Since this site has helped me so much, I felt the need to return the favor. :)

<?php
       
// Polecat's Multi-dimensional array_replace function
        // Will take all data in second array and apply to first array leaving any non-corresponding values untouched and intact
       
function polecat_array_replace( array &$array1, array &$array2 ) {
           
// This sub function is the iterator that will loop back on itself ad infinitum till it runs out of array dimensions
           
if(!function_exists('tier_parse')){
                function
tier_parse(array &$t_array1, array&$t_array2) {
                    foreach (
$t_array2 as $k2 => $v2) {
                        if (
is_array($t_array2[$k2])) {
                           
tier_parse($t_array1[$k2], $t_array2[$k2]);
                        } else {
                           
$t_array1[$k2] = $t_array2[$k2];
                        }
                    }
                    return
$t_array1;
                }
            }
           
            foreach (
$array2 as $key => $val) {
                if (
is_array($array2[$key])) {
                   
tier_parse($array1[$key], $array2[$key]);
                } else {
                   
$array1[$key] = $array2[$key];
                }
            }
            return
$array1;
        }
?>

[I would also like to note] that if you want to add a single dimensional array to a multi, all you must do is pass the matching internal array key from the multi as the initial argument as such:

<?php
$array1
= array( "berries" => array( "strawberry" => array( "color" => "red", "food" => "desserts"), "dewberry" = array( "color" => "dark violet", "food" => "pies"), );

$array2 = array( "food" => "wine");

$array1["berries"]["dewberry"] = polecat_array_replace($array1["berries"]["dewberry"], $array2);
?>

This is will replace the value for "food" for "dewberry" with "wine".

The function will also do the reverse and add a multi to a single dimensional array or even a 2 tier array to a 5 tier as long as the heirarchy tree is identical.

In some cases you might have a structured array from the database and one
of its nodes goes like this;

<?php
# a random node structure
$arr    = array(
   
'name'  => 'some name',
   
'key2'  => 'value2',
   
'title' => 'some title',
   
'key4'  => 4,
   
'json'  => '[1,0,1,1,0]'
);

# capture these keys values into given order
$keys   = array( 'name', 'json', 'title' );
?>

Now consider that you want to capture $arr values from $keys.
Assuming that you have a limitation to display the content into given keys
order, i.e. use it with a vsprintf, you could use the following

<?php
# string to transform
$string = "<p>name: %s, json: %s, title: %s</p>";

# flip keys once, we will use this twice
$keys   = array_flip( $keys );

# get values from $arr
$test   = array_intersect_key( $arr, $keys );

# still not good enough
echo vsprintf( $string, $test );
// output --> name: some name, json: some title, title: [1,0,1,1,0]

# usage of array_replace to get exact order and save the day
$test   = array_replace( $keys, $test );

# exact output
echo vsprintf( $string, $test );
// output --> name: some name, json: [1,0,1,1,0], title: some title

?>

I hope that this will save someone's time.

Instead of calling this function, it's often faster and simpler to do this instead:

<?php
$array_replaced
= $array2 + $array1;
?>

If you need references to stay intact:

<?php
$array2
+= $array1;
?>

You can also use:

<?php
$myarray
= [
"Orange",
"572" => "Banana",
"omg" => "Chili",
"nevermind" => "mango"
];

$myarray[0] = "NO-Orange";
$myarray["572"] = "BANANAPHONE!!!";
$myarray["omg"] = "NO-Chili";

print_r($myarray);

?>

RESULT:
Array
(
    [0] => NO-Orange
    [572] => BANANAPHONE!!!
    [omg] => NO-Chili
    [nevermind] => mango
)

The documentation is wrongly phrased: "array_replace() replaces the values of array1"  No replacing is done. A new array is created which looks like the one that would have resulted from the described replacement.

If you want to augment the set of indices in an array, use
       array_to_be_modified += array_with_indices_to_add;

a little enhancement to dyer85 at gmail dot com's function below:
<?php
if (!function_exists('array_replace'))
{
  function
array_replace( array &$array, array &$array1, $filterEmpty=false )
  {
   
$args = func_get_args();
   
$count = func_num_args()-1;

    for (
$i = 0; $i < $count; ++$i) {
      if (
is_array($args[$i])) {
        foreach (
$args[$i] as $key => $val) {
            if (
$filterEmpty && empty($val)) continue;
           
$array[$key] = $val;
        }
      }
      else {
       
trigger_error(
         
__FUNCTION__ . '(): Argument #' . ($i+1) . ' is not an array',
         
E_USER_WARNING
       
);
        return
NULL;
      }
    }

    return
$array;
  }
}
?>

this will allow you to "tetris-like" merge arrays:

<?php

$a
= array(
   
0 => "foo",
   
1 => "",
   
2 => "baz"
);
$b= array(
   
0 => "",
   
1 => "bar",
   
2 => ""
);

print_r(array_replace($a,$b, true));

?>
results in:
Array
(
    [0] => foo
    [1] => bar
    [2] => baz
)

If you work on some realy old server below PHP5 you can use array_merge like "necessary evil" to replace values in array:

Here is example how you can use this:

<?php
if(function_exists("array_replace") && version_compare(phpversion(), '5.3.0', '>='))
       
$data = array_replace($array1, $array2); // (PHP 5 >= 5.3.0)
   
else
       
$data = array_merge($array1, $array2); // (PHP 5 < 5.3.0)
var_dump($data);
?>

This can also help someplugin developers to cover some old PHP versions.
