JSON to PHP Class Generator

JSON to PHP Class: Core Features and Principles

Manually writing PHP entity classes is time-consuming and prone to errors. This tool directly parses JSON data structures and automatically generates PSR-compliant PHP class code. By analyzing the data types in JSON key-value pairs (such as strings, numbers, booleans, arrays, or nested objects), it generates properties with type declarations and optional constructor methods. For example, when processing nested objects in JSON, the tool creates independent PHP class definitions for each nesting level.

Why Choose Our JSON to PHP Class Generator?

• Supports deep nested object parsing, automatically generating independent PHP classes for nested structures.
• Generated code includes PHP 7.4+ type hinting (e.g., string, int, bool, array).
• Allows customization of class names, namespaces, and property visibility (public/protected/private).

How to Use

1. Paste valid JSON data into the input box.
2. Set optional parameters like class name and namespace.
3. Click the "Generate PHP Class" button.
4. Copy the output PHP code to your project.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How are mixed types in JSON arrays handled? The tool will infer them as array or mixed types. You may need to manually adjust the specific type declarations.

Can it handle special characters in JSON keys? It automatically converts invalid characters into compliant PHP variable names, such as turning "user-name" into "userName".

Important Notes

Please ensure the input is valid JSON. Complex arrays may require manual correction of type hints. The generated code serves as a foundational data model; you will need to add methods based on your business logic. Converting large files may take longer.

Technical Notes & Best Practices

For API response conversion, we recommend enabling the constructor option to facilitate deserialization. Typical example: Inputting {"name":"John","age":30} generates class Person { public string $name; public int $age; }.
