Output the parsable string representation of a variable in PHP

Output the parsable string representation of a variable in PHP

Answer:

var_export allows you to outputs or returns a parsable string representation of a variable.

Example:

<?php

$a = array (
        "foo" => 1,
        "bar" => 2
    );

echo var_export($a);

It gives:

array (
  'foo' => 1,
  'bar' => 2,
)

So you can use the output to declare the variable again in another PHP file.
