At the moment I’m busy with finding a solution to make the following script work:
<?php
function file_get_contents_curl($url) {
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_AUTOREFERER, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, 'Client-ID: CLIENT-ID');
$data = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
return $data;
}
$url = 'https://api.twitch.tv/helix/streams?user_login='.$_GET['name'];
$json_array = json_decode(file_get_contents_curl($url), true);
echo $json_array['data']['viewer_count'];
?>
I thought with this specific code, I could retrieve a viewer_count. Whats isn’t happening. What do I do wrong?
Try:
function file_get_contents_curl($url) {
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_AUTOREFERER, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
'Client-ID: CLIENT-ID'
));
$data = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
return $data;
}
$url = 'https://api.twitch.tv/helix/streams?user_login='.$_GET['name'];
$json_array = json_decode(file_get_contents_curl($url), true);
echo $json_array['data'][0]['viewer_count'];
shove a print_r($json_array);
after this and you can debug you own script.
or just use the solution provided.
Helix api returns a JSON object with a key of data. and data is always an array, so you need to refer to the first entry in said array
