how to add multiple JSON data links to Mysql - mysql

Question

I have a lot of links which has JSON data inside and i need the data from links to mysql, what could be fastest way for that ?
Is it possible to modify this code below to make it able to read from multiple urls ?
<?php
//connect to mysql db
$con = mysql_connect("username","password","") or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
//connect to the employee database
mysql_select_db("employee", $con);
//read the json file contents
$jsondata = file_get_contents('empdetails.json');
//convert json object to php associative array
$data = json_decode($jsondata, true);
//get the employee details
$id = $data['empid'];
$name = $data['personal']['name'];
$gender = $data['personal']['gender'];
$age = $data['personal']['age'];
$streetaddress = $data['personal']['address']['streetaddress'];
$city = $data['personal']['address']['city'];
$state = $data['personal']['address']['state'];
$postalcode = $data['personal']['address']['postalcode'];
$designation = $data['profile']['designation'];
$department = $data['profile']['department'];
//insert into mysql table
$sql = "INSERT INTO tbl_emp(empid, empname, gender, age, streetaddress, city, state, postalcode, designation, department)
VALUES('$id', '$name', '$gender', '$age', '$streetaddress', '$city', '$state', '$postalcode', '$designation', '$department')";
if(!mysql_query($sql,$con))
{
die('Error : ' . mysql_error());
}
?>

Here is an example of reading url's from a excel file.
I am using http://code.google.com/p/php-excel-reader/.
File - urls.xls.
It assumes this excel contains url's in the first column.
<?php
//connect to mysql db
$con = mysql_connect("username","password","") or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
//connect to the employee database
mysql_select_db("employee", $con);
$data = new Spreadsheet_Excel_Reader("urls.xls",false);
$rows = $data->rowcount(0);
for( $i=0;$i<$rows;$i++ ) {
//read the json file contents
$jsondata = file_get_contents($data->val($i,0));
//convert json object to php associative array
$data = json_decode($jsondata, true);
//get the employee details
$id = $data['empid'];
$name = $data['personal']['name'];
$gender = $data['personal']['gender'];
$age = $data['personal']['age'];
$streetaddress = $data['personal']['address']['streetaddress'];
$city = $data['personal']['address']['city'];
$state = $data['personal']['address']['state'];
$postalcode = $data['personal']['address']['postalcode'];
$designation = $data['profile']['designation'];
$department = $data['profile']['department'];
//insert into mysql table
$sql = "INSERT INTO tbl_emp(empid, empname, gender, age, streetaddress, city, state, postalcode, designation, department)
VALUES('$id', '$name', '$gender', '$age', '$streetaddress', '$city', '$state', '$postalcode', '$designation', '$department')";
if(!mysql_query($sql,$con))
{
die('Error : ' . mysql_error());
}
}
?>
Hope this helps.
