I have ebay categories that have parent_id
s. The top level category doesn't have a parent_id
. I am trying to write a recursive function that will return me an array from lowest category to highest eg:
array
0 => string '27"'
1 => string 'Monitors'
2 => string 'TV, Monitors and Display'
So far, however, it's causing an infinite loop. I think it's because the parent_id
isn't being passed when the function is called again, it's using the $ebay_store_category_id
from what was passed the first time the function was called rather than parent_id
.
public static function get_ebay_cats($ebay_store_category) {
$cat_array = array();
$ebay_store_category_id = $ebay_store_category->category_id;
$array = self::get_cat_array($ebay_store_category_id, $cat_array);
}
private function get_cat_array($ebay_store_category_id, &$cat_array, ) {
$ebay_cat_model = new Ebay_store_category_model($ebay_store_category_id);
$ebay_cat_model->get();
$cat_array[$ebay_cat_model->category_id] = $ebay_cat_model->name;
$parent_id = $ebay_cat_model->parent_id;
echo 'parent id :'.$parent_id.' | current category id: '.$ebay_cat_model->category_id.'<br/>';
if(!empty($parent_id)) {
return self::get_cat_array($parent_id, $cat_array);
}
return $cat_array;
}
The results of the echo
How I know its infinite and the parent id is not being passed when the function references itself:
parent id :6692320015 | current category id: 6697237015 parent id :6692320015 | current category id: 6697237015 parent id :6692320015 | current category id: 6697237015 parent id :6692320015 | current category id: 6697237015 parent id :6692320015 | current category id: 6697237015
My table structure:
+------------+------------+-------------------------------+-------+-------------+
| id | parent_id | name | order | category_id |
+------------+------------+-------------------------------+-------+-------------+
| 7 | NULL | TV, Monitors and Displays | 0 | 7 |
| 6701115015 | 7 | Monitors | 4 | 6701115015 |
| 5661200015 | 6701115015 | 27" | 3 | 6701114015 |
It's a CI thing. I used $ebay_cat_model->get_where(array('id'=>$ebay_store_category_id));
instead of $ebay_cat_model = new Ebay_store_category_model($ebay_store_category_id);
and it works now.
