Trying to grok object-oriented PHP. I have a recursive method to return comments and their replies and compile them to a flat array $comments_list
.
<?php
class RedditPosts
{
public function get_post_ids($from, $limit)
{
// GET POSTS
$list = json_decode(file_get_contents("http://www.reddit.com/$from.json?limit=$limit"));
sleep(2); //after every page request
$post_ids = array();
foreach($list->data->children as $post) {
$post_ids[] = $post->data->id;
}
return $post_ids;
}
}
class RedditComments
{
static $comments_list = array();
public function get_comments($post_id)
{
$comments_object = json_decode(file_get_contents("http://www.reddit.com/comments/$post_id.json"));
sleep(2);
$top_comments = $comments_object[1]->data->children;
//var_dump($top_comments);
self::get_sub_comments($top_comments);
}
static function get_sub_comments($root_comments)
{
foreach($root_comments as $comment)
{
self::$comments_list[] = $comment;
//echo $comment->data->body . "<br/>"
if ($comment->data->replies != '')
{
self::get_sub_comments($comment->data->replies->data->children);
}
}
var_dump(self::$comments_list);
return self::$comments_list;
}
}
/******************************MAIN************************************/
$ps = new RedditPosts();
$my_posts = $ps->get_post_ids("r/learnprogramming", 2);
$cm = new RedditComments();
$my_comments = $cm->get_comments($my_posts[0]);
var_dump($my_comments);
?>
I do a var_dump right before returning it and it is filled and looks correct but when I call it outside the method it is null. Probably an issue with scope but I'm new at this and cant figure out where and I've hit a wall. Help appreciated!
You don't return anything from get_post_ids
. self::get_sub_comments($top_comments);
should be self::get_sub_comments($top_comments);
?
