I need a really, really fast method of checking if a string is JSON or not. I feel like this is not the best way:
function isJson($string) {
return ((is_string($string) &&
(is_object(json_decode($string)) ||
is_array(json_decode($string))))) ? true : false;
}
Any performance enthusiasts out there want to improve this method?
function isJson($string) {
json_decode($string);
return (json_last_error() == JSON_ERROR_NONE);
}
