Check if key/value pairs exist within array
0
I need to check if a set of query params exists within a larger set of query params. For example, I want to check if array('option' => 'com_pages', 'view' => 'page'), exists within:
Array
(
[option] => com_pages
[format] => html
[view] => page
)
or
Array
(
[option] => com_archive
)
I tried to find a php function that would provide this kind of search, but could't find any that matched what I was looking for. So I created the below function:
function checkRoute($params, $request) {
foreach($params as $key => $value) {
if(!array_key_exists($key, $request)) {
return false;
}
if($request[$key] != $value) {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
Where $request is an array of the current request's query params.
Is there a quicker way to do this with array functions that I'm missing?

Would you expect it to return true on both of your examples? You'd like it to return true on the empty array too?

isset( $request[$key] )will be faster then thearray_key_exists(), or at least it was a few years ago ... lol ... semantically I would combing the if's as well,if( !isset( $request[$key] ) || $request[$key] !== $value )and use strict typing for things likefalsevs0if you care about those edge cases...

You should also check array_intersect it gives you the intersection of your arrays

@EarthDragon - that's a good idea but I would usearray_intersect_associnstead so the keys are checked.

@EarthDragon, No, I'd want false on the second example. I looked atarray_intersect_assoc, but I want to check that all the key/value pairs exist in both and that just leaves me with having to check the result, unless I'm missing something.

You could use an array_intersect_assoc for the two array and check if the count of the result is equal to the number of expected match...
if ( count(array_intersect_assoc($a, $b)) == count($a) ){
// then match ...
}
