Redefine JSON class in Response in REST API or pass parameters to it

Yii 2.0 General Discussions

Is it possible to redefine the \yii\helpers\Json class which is used yii2 Rest api to encode the response?

I need to pass JSON_FORCE_OBJECT parameter to json_encode() function, this way: \yii\helpers\Json::encode($order, JSON_FORCE_OBJECT);

How I can do this?

Follow an example.

  1. Make changes at config:



    'components' => [

    

        'response' => [

        

            'format' => yii\web\Response::FORMAT_JSON,

            'charset' => 'UTF-8',

                    

            'class' => '\api\components\ApiResponse',

            //'class' => 'yii\web\Response'


        ],
  1. Create subclass of Response to insert your custom code:



<?php

namespace api\components;


use yii\rest\ActiveController;

use yii\filters\auth\QueryParamAuth;

use Yii;

use yii\web\Response;


class ApiResponse extends \yii\web\Response

{

    public function send()

    {

        if(!$this->isClientError)

        {

            $this->data = ['status' => ['http_code' => $this->statusCode ], 'data' => $this->data ];

        }

        else

        {

            $this->data = ['status' => ['http_code' => $this->statusCode ], 'data' => $this->data ];

        }

        parent::send();

    }

}

Looks like I need to redefine yii\web\JsonResponseFormatter::formatJson() method. But not sure how.
