我正在寻找一个函数，它可以让我在数组(干草堆)中搜索字符串和数组(如针)，所以我通过@jwueller添加到答案中。

这是我的代码:

/**
 * Recursive in_array function
 * Searches recursively for needle in an array (haystack).
 * Works with both strings and arrays as needle.
 * Both needle's and haystack's keys are ignored, only values are compared.
 * Note: if needle is an array, all values in needle have to be found for it to
 * return true. If one value is not found, false is returned.
 * @param  mixed   $needle   The array or string to be found
 * @param  array   $haystack The array to be searched in
 * @param  boolean $strict   Use strict value & type validation (===) or just value
 * @return boolean           True if in array, false if not.
 */
function in_array_r($needle, $haystack, $strict = false) {
     // array wrapper
    if (is_array($needle)) {
        foreach ($needle as $value) {
            if (in_array_r($value, $haystack, $strict) == false) {
                // an array value was not found, stop search, return false
                return false;
            }
        }
        // if the code reaches this point, all values in array have been found
        return true;
    }

    // string handling
    foreach ($haystack as $item) {
        if (($strict ? $item === $needle : $item == $needle)
            || (is_array($item) && in_array_r($needle, $item, $strict))) {
            return true;
        }
    }
    return false;
}

我使用的这种方法适用于任意数量的嵌套，不需要黑客

<?php
    $blogCategories = [
        'programing' => [
            'golang',
            'php',
            'ruby',
            'functional' => [
                'Erlang',
                'Haskell'
            ]
        ],
        'bd' => [
            'mysql',
            'sqlite'
        ]
    ];
    $it = new RecursiveArrayIterator($blogCategories);
    foreach (new RecursiveIteratorIterator($it) as $t) {
        $found = $t == 'Haskell';
        if ($found) {
           break;
        }
    }

自PHP 5.6以来，原来的答案有一个更好和更干净的解决方案:

使用这样的多维数组:

$a = array(array("Mac", "NT"), array("Irix", "Linux"))

我们可以使用splat操作符:

return in_array("Irix", array_merge(...$a), true)

如果你有这样的字符串键:

$a = array("a" => array("Mac", "NT"), "b" => array("Irix", "Linux"))

你将不得不使用array_values，以避免错误不能解包数组字符串键:

return in_array("Irix", array_merge(...array_values($a)), true)

function in_array_r($needle, $haystack, $strict = false) {
     // array wrapper
    if (is_array($needle)) {
        foreach ($needle as $value) {
            if (in_array_r($value, $haystack, $strict) == false) {
                // an array value was not found, stop search, return false
                return false;
            }
        }
        // if the code reaches this point, all values in array have been found
        return true;
    }

    // string handling
    foreach ($haystack as $item) {
        if (($strict ? $item === $needle : $item == $needle)
            || (is_array($item) && in_array_r($needle, $item, $strict))) {
            return true;
        }
    }
    return false;
}

它也可以从原来的数组中创建一个新的单维数组。

$arr = array("key1"=>"value1","key2"=>"value2","key3"=>"value3");

foreach ($arr as $row)  $vector[] = $row['key1'];

in_array($needle,$vector);

你总是可以序列化你的多维数组并执行strpos:

$arr = array(array("Mac", "NT"), array("Irix", "Linux"));

$in_arr = (bool)strpos(serialize($arr),'s:4:"Irix";');

if($in_arr){
    echo "Got Irix!";
}

我使用的各种文档:

(大小写敏感) serialize () 类型杂耍或(bool)
