Getting error: Object of class CI_Output could not be converted to string - Kunal - 02-29-2016
I am trying to get some output from my model in JSON format, i have used the CI_Output class to set the content type and output. But whenever i try to access the view from the url, it displays the data in JSON format, but i am also getting an error, which says "http://localhost/login/index.php/json/json_output". My code is as follows:
Controller class:
<?php
class Json extends CI_Controller{
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
$this->load->model('json_model');
}
public function json_output(){
$data['json'] =
$this->output
->set_content_type('application/json')
->set_output(json_encode($this->json_model->get_user(),true));
$this->load->view('json_view',$data);
}
}
Model class:
<?php
class Json_model extends CI_Model{
public function __construct() {
parent::__construct();
$this->load->database('login');
}
public function get_user(){
$query = $this->db->get('users');
return $query->result();
}
}
View class:
<?php
echo $json;
//foreach ($json as $js){
// echo $js->user_id;
// echo $js->username;
// echo $js->password;
//
//}
?>
Any help would be appreciated !!

You're assigning the return value of set_output(), which is a CI_Output instance, to $data['json'].

You don't need to load a view if you are using set_output
PHP Code:
public function json_output(){
PHP Code:
$this->output
->set_content_type('application/json')
->set_output(json_encode($this->json_model->get_user(),true));
}
