如何在PHP中基于特定字段横向合并数组

本文旨在探讨如何使用PHP来根据特定字段（例如日期）横向合并两个数组。这种技术在数据分析和报告生成中非常有用，可以帮助我们更有效地组织和展示数据。

假设我们有两个数组，每个数组包含不同日期的支付信息：

$arrayA = Array(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [date] => 2019-04-02
            [today_pay_money] => 168.00
            [today_pay_num] => 1
            [yesterday_pay_money] => 999.00
            [yesterday_pay_num] => 1
        ),
    [1] => Array
        (
            [date] => 2019-04-09
            [today_pay_money] => 0.01
            [today_pay_num] => 1
            [yesterday_pay_money] => 0.00
            [yesterday_pay_num] => 0
        ),
    [2] => Array
        (
            [date] => 2019-05-05
            [today_pay_money] => 0.01
            [today_pay_num] => 1
            [yesterday_pay_money] => 2.00
            [yesterday_pay_num] => 1
        ),
    [3] => Array
        (
            [date] => 2019-05-11
            [today_pay_money] => 0.00
            [today_pay_num] => 0
            [yesterday_pay_money] => 
            [yesterday_pay_num] => 1
        )
);
$arrayB = Array(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [date] => 2019-05-07
            [today_pay_money1] => 0
            [today_pay_num1] => 0
            [yesterday_pay_money1] => 0
            [yesterday_pay_num1] => 0
        ),
    [1] => Array
        (
            [date] => 2019-05-11
            [today_pay_money1] => 0
            [today_pay_num1] => 0
            [yesterday_pay_money1] => 1
            [yesterday_pay_num1] => 1
        )
);

目标是将这两个数组按照日期字段进行合并，形成一个新的数组，其中相同日期的数据行被合并到一起：

$mergedArray = Array(
    [2019-04-02] => Array
        (
            [date] => 2019-04-02
            [today_pay_money] => 168.00
            [today_pay_num] => 1
            [yesterday_pay_money] => 999.00
            [yesterday_pay_num] => 1
        ),
    [2019-04-09] => Array
        (
            [date] => 2019-04-09
            [today_pay_money] => 0.01
            [today_pay_num] => 1
            [yesterday_pay_money] => 0.00
            [yesterday_pay_num] => 0
        ),
    [2019-05-05] => Array
        (
            [date] => 2019-05-05
            [today_pay_money] => 0.01
            [today_pay_num] => 1
            [yesterday_pay_money] => 2.00
            [yesterday_pay_num] => 1
        ),
    [2019-05-11] => Array
        (
            [date] => 2019-05-11
            [today_pay_money] => 0.00
            [today_pay_num] => 0
            [yesterday_pay_money] => 
            [yesterday_pay_num] => 1
            [today_pay_money1] => 0
            [today_pay_num1] => 0
            [yesterday_pay_money1] => 1
            [yesterday_pay_num1] => 1
        ),
    [2019-05-07] => Array
        (
            [date] => 2019-05-07
            [today_pay_money1] => 0
            [today_pay_num1] => 0
            [yesterday_pay_money1] => 0
            [yesterday_pay_num1] => 0
        )
);

实现方法

首先，我们需要遍历两个数组并将它们合并。对于每个元素，检查其日期是否已存在于结果数组中。如果不存在，则直接添加；如果存在，则将新数据与现有数据合并：

$result = array();
foreach (array_merge($arrayA, $arrayB) as $item) {
    if (!isset($result[$item['date']])) {
        $result[$item['date']] = $item;
    } else {
        $result[$item['date']] = array_merge($result[$item['date']], $item);
    }
}

通过上述方法，我们可以轻松地根据指定字段（如日期）合并多个数组，从而实现数据的有效整合。这种方法不仅适用于本例中的支付数据，也可以广泛应用于其他需要按特定字段合并数据的场景。
