lsloan / JsonSortTest.php
Last active August 29, 2015 14:20
My attempt to recursively sort data in nested arrays and objects. This is helpful for sorting data in JSON by key.
<?php
class JsonSortTest extends PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase {
public $fixtureFilename = 'fixture.json';
public $outputFilename = 'output.json';
public $fixtureJson;
function ksortObjectsRecursive(&$data, $sortFlags = SORT_REGULAR) {
if (!function_exists('ksortObjectsRecursiveCallback')) {
function ksortObjectsRecursiveCallback(&$data, $unusedKey, $sortFlags) {

A method for creating GUIDs for PHP, even if com_create_guid() isn't available.
private function getNewGUID($wrapWithBraces = false) {
if (function_exists('com_create_guid')) {
return com_create_guid();
} else {
mt_srand((double)microtime() * 10000); //optional for php 4.2.0 and up.
$charid = strtoupper(md5(uniqid(rand(), true)));
$uuid = ($wrapWithBraces ? '{' : '')
. substr($charid, 0, 8) . '-'
. substr($charid, 8, 4) . '-'
. substr($charid, 12, 4) . '-'
