我如何从多维数组中获取数据

Question

I am having some trouble with an object that is return from the google php api client. I have tried posting using that tag but had no help. I have since converted the object to an array, but still can't figure out how to get all the data I need. Basically I am doing a search using google api, and it returns an object with the results which is as follows (using print_r):

Google_Service_Customsearch_Search Object ( 
 [collection_key:protected] => promotions 
 [internal_gapi_mappings:protected] => Array ( ) 
 [contextType:protected] => Google_Service_Customsearch_Context 
 [contextDataType:protected] => 
 [itemsType:protected] => Google_Service_Customsearch_Result 
 [itemsDataType:protected] => 
 array [kind] => customsearch#search 
 [promotionsType:protected] => Google_Service_Customsearch_Promotion 
 [promotionsDataType:protected] => array 
 [queriesType:protected] => Google_Service_Customsearch_Query 
 [queriesDataType:protected] => map 
 [searchInformationType:protected] => Google_Service_Customsearch_SearchSearchInformation 
 [searchInformationDataType:protected] => 
 [spellingType:protected] => Google_Service_Customsearch_SearchSpelling 
 [spellingDataType:protected] => 
 [urlType:protected] => Google_Service_Customsearch_SearchUrl 
 [urlDataType:protected] => 
 [modelData:protected] => Array ( 
   [url] => Array ( 
     [type] => application/json 
     [template] => https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?q={searchTerms}&num={count?}&start={startIndex?}&lr={language?}&safe={safe?}&cx={cx?}&cref={cref?}&sort={sort?}&filter={filter?}&gl={gl?}&cr={cr?}&googlehost={googleHost?}&c2coff={disableCnTwTranslation?}&hq={hq?}&hl={hl?}&siteSearch={siteSearch?}&siteSearchFilter={siteSearchFilter?}&exactTerms={exactTerms?}&excludeTerms={excludeTerms?}&linkSite={linkSite?}&orTerms={orTerms?}&relatedSite={relatedSite?}&dateRestrict={dateRestrict?}&lowRange={lowRange?}&highRange={highRange?}&searchType={searchType}&fileType={fileType?}&rights={rights?}&imgSize={imgSize?}&imgType={imgType?}&imgColorType={imgColorType?}&imgDominantColor={imgDominantColor?}&alt=json 
   )
   [queries] => Array ( 
      [nextPage] => Array ( 
        [0] => Array ( 
          [title] => Google Custom Search - donkey 
          [totalResults] => 101000000 
          [searchTerms] => donkey 
          [count] => 5 
          [startIndex] => 6 
          [inputEncoding] => utf8 
          [outputEncoding] => utf8 
          [safe] => medium 
          [cx] => 000701869894579992216:cobbhbhbhbhre0 
          [searchType] => image 
          [imgSize] => large )
        ) 
        [request] => Array ( 
          [0] => Array ( 
            [title] => Google Custom Search - donkey 
            [totalResults] => 101000000 
            [searchTerms] => donkey 
            [count] => 5
            [startIndex] => 1 
            [inputEncoding] => utf8 
            [outputEncoding] => utf8 
            [safe] => medium 
            .... 
          ) 
        ) 
      ) 
    ) 
    [processed:protected] => Array ( ) 
 )

I was having trouble retrieving the values I wanted because some items are missing values in this, the first one is [contextDataType:protected] => This causes all sorts of problems, and I am not sure why the object is returned like this.

So I converted to an array: $array = (array) $results; This gives:

Array ( [*collection_key] => promotions [*internal_gapi_mappings] => Array ( ) [*contextType] => Google_Service_Customsearch_Context [*contextDataType] => [*itemsType] => Google_Service_Customsearch_Result [*itemsDataType] => array [kind] => customsearch#search [*promotionsType] => Google_Service_Customsearch_Promotion [*promotionsDataType] => array [*queriesType] => Google_Service_Customsearch_Query [*queriesDataType] => map [*searchInformationType] => Google_Service_Customsearch_SearchSearchInformation [*searchInformationDataType] => [*spellingType] => Google_Service_Customsearch_SearchSpelling [*spellingDataType] => [*urlType] => Google_Service_Customsearch_SearchUrl [*urlDataType] => [*modelData] => Array ( [url] => Array ( [type] => application/json [template] => https://www.googleapis.com/customsearch/v1?q={searchTerms}&num={count?}&start={startIndex?}&lr={language?}&safe={safe?}&cx={cx?}&cref={cref?}&sort={sort?}&filter={filter?}&gl={gl?}&cr={cr?}&googlehost={googleHost?}&c2coff={disableCnTwTranslation?}&hq={hq?}&hl={hl?}&siteSearch={siteSearch?}&siteSearchFilter={siteSearchFilter?}&exactTerms={exactTerms?}&excludeTerms={excludeTerms?}&linkSite={linkSite?}&orTerms={orTerms?}&relatedSite={relatedSite?}&dateRestrict={dateRestrict?}&lowRange={lowRange?}&highRange={highRange?}&searchType={searchType}&fileType={fileType?}&rights={rights?}&imgSize={imgSize?}&imgType={imgType?}&imgColorType={imgColorType?}&imgDominantColor={imgDominantColor?}&alt=json ) [queries] => Array ( [nextPage] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [title] => Google Custom Search -

This looks much more usable, and I can flatten the array to get some values, but since the keys are reused, I then loose all but the last result. Specifically I want to get all the values of [link] of which there are 5, one in each search result.

How can I do this please? I am sure this is easy but I can't figure it out.

Thanks

Answer 1

OK I sorted it, just made it into an array and then used array_walk_recursive:

//Making the returned object into an array
$array =  (array) $results;
function array_print($item, $key)
{
     if($key=='link'){
       echo $item ."<br>";
     }
}

array_walk_recursive($array, 'array_print');
