Cakephp 3 hasMany ассоциативный массив для преобразования в правильный формат JSON

Question

У меня есть следующий массив, который мне нужно расположить в формате json. Я использую cakephp3, в котором таблица сотрудников имеет много связей с таблицами миль и расходов. Я восстановил весь массив, который мне нужно расположить в правильном формате json. Я пытался, но не смог преобразовать в правильный формат JSON.

JSON формат, как мне нужно организовать:

"data": [
    {
    "date": "2018-04-30(month end date)",
    "items": [
            {
                "employee_id": 246,
                "employee_name": "Employee_1",
                "department": "Management",
                "car_registration": "uk074wzx",
                "mileage_km": 120.586,
                "mileage_amount": 235.2,
                "day_allowance": 100.83,
                "night_allowance": 0
                "expense_amount": 310
            },
            {
                "employee_id": 247,

                "car_registration": "uk074wzx",
                "mileage_km": 382.741,

                "night_allowance": 0
                "expense_amount": 80
            },
            {
                "employee_id": 248,
                "employee_name": "sbn emp3",

                "expense_amount": 0
            }
        ]
    }
]

Пожалуйста, помогите мне преобразовать массив в JSON. Thankyou.

В классе EmployeeController

$employee = $this->Employee->find('all')
                 ->contain(['Expenses', 'Mileages'])
                 ->enableHydration(false)
                 ->toArray();

//prepare json data
$emp = array();
foreach($employee as $key => $value) {
    $emp[] = [
        "employee_id" = $value['employee_id'] ?? '',
        "employee_name" = $value['employee_name'] ?? '',
        "department" = $value['department'] ?? '',
        "car_registration" = $value['car_registration'] ?? ''
     ];
     if(!empty($value['mileages'])) {
         $mileages= new Collection($value['mileages']);
         $emp[] = [
         "mileage_km " = $mileages->sumOf('mileage_km') ??'',
         "mileage_amount" = $mileages->sumOf('mileage_amount') ?? '',
         "day_allowance" = $mileages->sumOf('day_allowance') ?? '',
         "night_allowance" = $mileages->sumOf('night_allowance') ?? '',
         ];
     }
     if(!empty($value['expenses'])) {
         $expenses= new Collection($value['expenses']);
         $emp[] = [
         "expense_amount" = $expenses->sumOf('expense_amount') ??'',
        ];
     }
}

$this->set([
        'items' => $emp,
        'date': '2018-04-30(month end date)',
        '_serialize' => ['date', 'items']
]);
