如果你有JSON ($ugly_json)

echo nl2br(str_replace(' ', ' ', (json_encode(json_decode($ugly_json), JSON_PRETTY_PRINT | JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES))));

我从Composer: https://github.com/composer/composer/blob/master/src/Composer/Json/JsonFile.php和nicejson: https://github.com/GerHobbelt/nicejson-php/blob/master/nicejson.php中获取代码 Composer代码很好，因为它从5.3到5.4的更新很流畅，但它只编码对象，而nicejson需要json字符串，所以我合并了它们。代码可以用来格式化json字符串和/或编码对象，我目前在Drupal模块中使用它。

        if (':' === $char)
        {
            // Add a space after the : character
            $char .= ' ';
        }

            if ('{' !== $prevChar && '[' !== $prevChar)
            {

                for ($j = 0; $j < $pos; $j++)
                {

            else
            {
                // Collapse empty {} and []
                $result = rtrim($result) . "\n\n" . $indentStr;
            }
        }

        $result .= $char;

        // If the last character was the beginning of an element,
        // output a new line and indent the next line
        if (',' === $char || '{' === $char || '[' === $char)
        {
            $result .= $newLine;

            if ('{' === $char || '[' === $char)
            {
                $pos++;
            }

            for ($j = 0; $j < $pos; $j++)
            {
                $result .= $indentStr;
            }
        }
    }
    // If buffer not empty after formating we have an unclosed quote
    if (strlen($buffer) > 0)
    {
        //json is incorrectly formatted
        $result = false;
    }

    return $result;
}

将<pre>与json_encode()和JSON_PRETTY_PRINT选项结合使用:

<pre>
    <?php
    echo json_encode($dataArray, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);
    ?>
</pre>

格式化JSON数据的最佳方式是这样的!

header('Content-type: application/json; charset=UTF-8');
echo json_encode($response, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT | JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE | JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES);

将$response替换为需要转换为JSON的数据

我也有同样的问题。

不管怎样，我只是在这里使用了json格式代码:

http://recursive-design.com/blog/2008/03/11/format-json-with-php/

能满足我的需要。

还有一个更加维护的版本:https://github.com/GerHobbelt/nicejson-php

PHP 5.4提供了JSON_PRETTY_PRINT选项，用于json_encode()调用。

https://php.net/manual/en/function.json-encode.php

<?php
...
$json_string = json_encode($data, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT);
