Help - parse text file, find keyword

Recommended Posts

I am looking for a way to parse a file that contains a lot of text that is comma separated, yet it is not a csv. 

What i want is to find a keyword then echo that keyword and a few characters after that keyword, then look for another keyword and echo that keyword and some characters after that keyword...etc.

 

Can someone point me in the right direction please?

Ok here is what I have and what I need it to look like:

 

Sample file:

 

{"RubricCriterion":[{"num":1,"value":"25","previous_version":null,"position":1,"name":"Writing","description":null,"rubric":352600,"criterion_scales":[10985652,10985648,10985644,10985640],"id":3423222},{"num":2,"value":"25","previous_version":null,"position":2,"name":"Grammar","description":null,"rubric":352600,"criterion_scales":[10985651,10985647,10985643,10985639],"id":3423223},{"num":3,"value":"25","previous_version":null,"position":3,"name":"Punctuation","description":null,"rubric":352600,"criterion_scales":[10985650,10985646,10985642,10985638],"id":3423224},{"num":4,"value":"25","previous_version":null,"position":4,"name":"Spelling","description":null,"rubric":352600,"criterion_scales":[10985649,10985645,10985641,10985637],"id":3423225}],"Rubric":[{"cv_loaded":"1","criterion":[3423222,3423223,3423224,3423225],"assignments":[],"id":352600,"papers_scored":"0","owner":1006900964,"criterion_scales_all":[10985652,10985648,10985644,10985640,10985651,10985647,10985643,10985639,10985650,10985646,10985642,10985638,10985649,10985645,10985641,10985637],"name":"MyRubric","deleted":0,"description":null,"distribute_criterion_percentage":0,"total_points":null,"scoring_method":2,"scale_values":[3343228,3343229,3343230,3343231],"rubric_group":null}],"RubricScale":[{"num":1,"value":"25","position":1,"name":"Not Acceptable","id":3343228,"rubric":352600},{"num":2,"value":"50","position":2,"name":"Beginner","id":3343229,"rubric":352600},{"num":3,"value":"75","position":3,"name":"Competent","id":3343230,"rubric":352600},{"num":4,"value":"100","position":4,"name":"Proficient","id":3343231,"rubric":352600}],"RubricCriterionScale":[{"scale_value":3343228,"value":"0","criterion":3423222,"id":10985652,"description":"poor writing"},{"scale_value":3343229,"value":"0","criterion":3423222,"id":10985648,"description":"begineer writing"},{"scale_value":3343230,"value":"0","criterion":3423222,"id":10985644,"description":"competent writing"},{"scale_value":3343231,"value":"0","criterion":3423222,"id":10985640,"description":"proficient writing"},{"scale_value":3343228,"value":"0","criterion":3423223,"id":10985651,"description":"poor grammar"},{"scale_value":3343229,"value":"0","criterion":3423223,"id":10985647,"description":"beginner grammar"},{"scale_value":3343230,"value":"0","criterion":3423223,"id":10985643,"description":"competent grammar"},{"scale_value":3343231,"value":"0","criterion":3423223,"id":10985639,"description":"proficient grammar"},{"scale_value":3343228,"value":"0","criterion":3423224,"id":10985650,"description":null},{"scale_value":3343229,"value":"0","criterion":3423224,"id":10985646,"description":null},{"scale_value":3343230,"value":"0","criterion":3423224,"id":10985642,"description":null},{"scale_value":3343231,"value":"0","criterion":3423224,"id":10985638,"description":null},{"scale_value":3343228,"value":"0","criterion":3423225,"id":10985649,"description":null},{"scale_value":3343229,"value":"0","criterion":3423225,"id":10985645,"description":null},{"scale_value":3343230,"value":"0","criterion":3423225,"id":10985641,"description":null},{"scale_value":3343231,"value":"0","criterion":3423225,"id":10985637,"description":null}]}

why does it work when I insert it into $string and it doesn't when I don't

 

<?
$file = "rbc/$_GET[parse]";
$string = json_decode(file_get_contents($file, true));

foreach ($string->RubricCriterion as $rubric) {
    echo $rubric->name;
}
?>
EDIT [ignace]: I accidently edited your post mistaken it for quoting you so the wording may be different, my apologies Edited by ignace
