Dynamically add data stored in php to nested json
- by HoGo
I am trying to dynamicaly generate data in json for jQuery gantt chart. I know PHP but am totally green with JavaScript. I have read dozen of solutions on how dynamicaly add data to json, and tried few dozens of combinations and nothing. Here is the json format:
var data = [{
name: "Sprint 0",
desc: "Analysis",
values: [{
from: "/Date(1320192000000)/",
to: "/Date(1322401600000)/",
label: "Requirement Gathering",
customClass: "ganttRed"
}]
},{
name: " ",
desc: "Scoping",
values: [{
from: "/Date(1322611200000)/",
to: "/Date(1323302400000)/",
label: "Scoping",
customClass: "ganttRed"
}]
}, <!-- Somoe more data-->
}];
now I have all data in php db result. Here it goes:
$rows=$db->fetchAllRows($result);
$rowsNum=count($rows);
And this is how I wanted to create json out of it:
var data='';
<?php foreach ($rows as $row){ ?>
data['name']="<?php echo $row['name'];?>";
data['desc']="<?php echo $row['desc'];?>";
data['values'] = {"from" : "/Date(<?php echo $row['from'];?>)/", "to" : "/Date(<?php echo $row['to'];?>)/", "label" : "<?php echo $row['label'];?>", "customClass" : "ganttOrange"};
}
However this does not work. I have tried without loop and replacing php variables with plain text just to check, but it did not work either. Displays chart without added items. If I add new item by adding it to the list of values, it works. So there is no problem with the Gantt itself or paths. Based on all above I assume the problem is with adding plain data to json. Can anyone please help me to fix it?
