I'm very new to the world of APIs and am currently trying to display all reviews I have on my reviews.io account for a specific product. I've tried to make the following script, which now seems to work, however, I would love to have the results sorted nicely in a for-each loop.
Here my current script:
<?php
$header_data = array(
'store' => 'MYSHOP',
'apikey' => 'MYKEY',
'method' => 'GET'
);
$ch = curl_init();
$curlOpts = array(
CURLOPT_URL => 'https://api.reviews.co.uk/product/review?store=MYSHOP&sku=TSCB20&apikey=MYKEY',
CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => 1,
CURLOPT_HEADER => false
);
curl_setopt_array($ch, $curlOpts);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array('Content-Length: 0'));
$rv = curl_exec($ch);
$data = json_decode($rv,true);
curl_close($ch);
?>
This outputs all reviews in Raw code or JSON I believe, however, I would like to have them displayed nicely in a div for each item.
The output is as follows (formatted):
{
"store": {
"name": "",
"logo": ""

"stats": {
"average": "5.0000",

My ideal outcome now would be a loop, that fetches the reviewer's name, the review itself and the star-rating. e.g.
<p class="review">Review here</p>
<p class="reviewer">Name here</p>
<p class="rating">Rating here</p>
So technically based on the current output, I should have 2 reviews. Some expert help would be greatly appreciated as I am very new to APIs.
Simple foreach()
will do the job:
<?php foreach($data['reviews']['data'] as $dat){?>
<p class="review"><?php echo $dat['review'];?></p>
<p class="reviewer"><?php echo trim($dat['reviewer']['first_name'].' '.$dat['reviewer']['last_name']);?></p>
<p class="rating"><?php echo $dat['rating'];?></p>
<?php }?>
