how can get content json from <scriptscript type=“application/ld+json”>

Question

I can't find an API for Vine to get the page content's title, description and image. The JSON is in the body of the page itself in a script tag: . How do I get the content (the JSON) of this script tag using PHP so it can be parsed?

Vine page:

https://vine.co/v/igO3EbIXDlI

From page source

<script type="application/ld+json">

What to do after this?

$html = 'https://vine.co/v/igO3EbIXDlI';
$dom = new DOMDocument;
$dom->loadHTML($html);

Answer 1

When I go to that page, I don't see the script tag you are referencing. So I found a page that has one, and this is how I would do it:

<?php
$html = file_get_contents('https://tv-sewingcenter.com');
$dom = new DOMDocument;
libxml_use_internal_errors(true);
$dom->loadHTML($html);
$jsons = array();
$scripts = $dom->getElementsByTagName('script');
if( ! empty( $scripts ) )
{
    foreach( $scripts as $script )
    {
        if( $script->hasAttribute('type') && $script->getAttribute('type') == 'application/ld+json' )
        {
            $jsons[] = json_decode($script->nodeValue, true);
        }
    }

    if( ! empty( $jsons ) )
    {
        foreach( $jsons as $json )
        {
            echo '<pre>';
            print_r( $json );
            echo '</pre>';
        }
    }
}
