php - Getting data from Yelp API
I'm starting to look into Yelp API. When I send a search request I get a data returned in an array $response. So If I output it like this
echo '<pre>';
print_r($response);
echo '</pre>';
I see results in the following format
stdClass Object
(
[message] => stdClass Object
(
[text] => OK
[code] => 0
[version] => 1.1.1
)
[businesses] => Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
(
[rating_img_url] => http://s3-media2.ak.yelpcdn.com/assets/2/www/img/99493c12711e/ico/stars/v1/stars_4_half.png
[country_code] => US
...
)
)
)
So, let's say I want to get the country code, shouldn't I be able to get it with something like?
echo $response['businesses'][0]->country_code;
I'm not getting any results. What am I missing?

stdClass Object
are properties.Everything below
=> Array
are Array Elements.Let me guess,
$response = json_decode(...);
?You can tell this function to return associative arrays instead of objects by putting up the second parameter
true
:Then the values would be in:
