Display character " inside JsonResponse message-CodePudding

I'm working on an API using PHP and Symfony where I need to throw some error messages.

I'm working with this method, which I call when error conditions happened:

public function error($codeError, $message, $statusCode): JsonResponse
{
    return new JsonResponse([
        'code' => $codeError,
        'description' => $message
    ], $statusCode);
}

The thing is, in the variable $message, there are some cases that I need to throw a message like Variable "user" is invalid, so I pass the string 'Variable "user" is invalid'. But the JsonResponse's boy I'm getting is: "description": "Variable \"user\" is invalid".

How can I make it look well, without the two \?

An example of calling this function would be:

return (new ErrTC)->error('AUTH_ERROR', 'Variable "user" is invalid', 401);

CodePudding user response：

The response you are getting is perfectly fine.

The double-quote character needs to be escaped if it's part of a string, that's just the way it is.

You can always surround user with single quotes instead of double quotes, and then no escaping would be necessary.

Just have $message be: "Variable 'user' is invalid".
