PHP implementation of WeChat mini program lottery skills

In today's social media era, WeChat, as one of the most popular social tools in China, has a huge user base. With the rise of WeChat mini programs, more and more companies have begun to use them as a marketing channel and use WeChat mini programs to carry out various activities, among which lottery activities are one of the more popular ones.

The WeChat mini program lottery is divided into two methods: pure front-end and back-end participation. Generally speaking, front-end draws are usually less difficult, but the results of the draws are easily tampered with, leading to unfairness; while back-end draws require writing back-end code, which improves the security and fairness of the draws. This article will introduce from a technical perspective how to implement a safe and fair WeChat mini program lottery by writing in PHP.

First of all, in preparation, you need to register the mini program on the WeChat public platform and obtain the appid and secret of the mini program. Next, you need to create a custom menu in the WeChat public platform background for testing and demonstration.

Next, you need to write the PHP code for background participation in the lottery. The specific steps are as follows:

1. Obtain user information

Before users participate in the lottery in the mini program, they need to obtain their WeChat user information. In PHP, this can be achieved through the following code:

$code=$_GET['code'];
$url=" https://api.weixin.qq.com/sns/jscode2session?appid=wx1234567890&secret=123456abcdefg&js_code=$code&grant_type=authorization_code";
$res = file_get_contents($url);
$arr=json_decode($res,true);
$openid=$arr['openid'];

Among them, $code is the code generated by the mini program, and the user's openid is obtained by calling the WeChat interface.

2. Obtain the list of lottery participants

After completing the above steps, you need to obtain the participation list of the current lottery event. The participant information can be obtained from the database through the following code:

$pdo = new PDO("mysql:host=localhost;dbname=test;charset=utf8","root","root");
$stmt = $pdo->query("select openid from lottery");
$rows = $stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);

Among them, $pdo is the database connection object, lottery is the database table name, and openid is the unique identifier of the participant.

3. Lottery process

After obtaining the list of lottery participants, you can start the lottery. The lottery is conducted using random numbers. The implementation method in PHP is as follows:

$num=rand(0,count($rows)-1); 
$winner=$rows[$num]['openid'];

Among them, $num is a randomly generated number, and $winner is the result of the lottery, that is, the openid of the winning participant.

4. Return the result

After completing the lottery process, the winning result needs to be returned to the front end. The openid of the winner can be returned in JSON format:

$prize=array('code'=>"200",'message'=>"success",'data'=>array('winner'=>$winner)); 
$json = json_encode($prize);
echo $json;

At this point, a basic WeChat applet lottery function is completed.

Of course, in the actual lottery process, many other factors need to be considered, such as concurrency, data security and other issues. But through the above steps, we can basically understand how to use PHP to write back-end code to implement the WeChat mini program lottery, and make some simple solutions to the corresponding problems.

Finally, it needs to be emphasized that fairness and security in lottery activities are crucial to the image and credibility of the company. Therefore, when conducting lottery activities, you must make corresponding technical preparations and safety measures to make the activity more credible and win the recognition and trust of more fans for the company.
