            'json_encode error: ' . json_last_error_msg());
    }

    return $json;
}

再扩展一下这个答案，下面的问题如何:

<?php

    $json = '[{"user_id":13,"username":"stack"},{"user_id":14,"username":"over"}]';
    //$json = '12';

    function isJson($string) {
        json_decode($string);
        if(json_last_error() == JSON_ERROR_NONE) {
            if(substr($string,0,1) == '[' && substr($string,-1) == ']') { return TRUE; }
            else if(substr($string,0,1) == '{' && substr($string,-1) == '}') { return TRUE; }
            else { return FALSE; }
        }
    }

    echo isJson($json);
?>

我们需要检查传递的string是否不是数字，因为在这种情况下json_decode不会引发错误。

function isJson($str) {
    $result = false;
    if (!preg_match("/^\d+$/", trim($str))) {
        json_decode($str);
        $result = (json_last_error() == JSON_ERROR_NONE);
    }

    return $result;
}

另一种简单的方法

function is_json($str)
{
    return is_array(json_decode($str,true));
}

您必须验证您的输入，以确保您传递的字符串不是空的，实际上是一个字符串。空字符串不是有效的JSON。

function is_json($string) {
  return !empty($string) && is_string($string) && is_array(json_decode($string, true)) && json_last_error() == 0;
}

我认为在PHP中更重要的是确定JSON对象是否有数据，因为要使用数据，您将需要调用json_encode()或json_decode()。我建议拒绝空JSON对象，这样就不必在空数据上运行编码和解码。

function has_json_data($string) {
  $array = json_decode($string, true);
  return !empty($string) && is_string($string) && is_array($array) && !empty($array) && json_last_error() == 0;
}
