foreach help with XMLRPC returned array...

[DigiDan]

Hi Guys,

I have some software in house which, when a called by my PHP script, I get a return similar to the below;

[0] => Array
        (
            [jobID] => 29
            [name] => [split 2/17] stitch_iPhone: iPhone_Widescreen_HQ.setting + VideoFile.avi
            [history] => Array
                (
                    [0] => Array
                        (
                            [time] => 1284645057
                            [progress] => 0
                            [reason] => 0
                            [___class___] => Episode::API::Status
                            [state] => 0
                        )

                [1] => Array
                    (
                        [time] => 1284645057
                        [progress] => 0
                        [reason] => 0
                        [___class___] => Episode::API::Status
                        [state] => 1
                    )

                [2] => Array
                    (
                        [time] => 1284645057
                        [progress] => 100
                        [reason] => 0
                        [___class___] => Episode::API::Status
                        [state] => 2
                    )

                [3] => Array
                    (
                        [time] => 1284645734
                        [progress] => 0
                        [reason] => 9
                        [___class___] => Episode::API::Status
                        [state] => 3
                    )

                [4] => Array
                    (
                        [time] => 1284645734
                        [progress] => 0
                        [reason] => 9
                        [___class___] => Episode::API::Status
                        [state] => 4
                    )

            )

        [currentStatus] => Array
            (
                [time] => 1284645734
                [progress] => 0
                [reason] => 9
                [___class___] => Episode::API::Status
                [state] => 4
            )

        [metaData] => Array
            (
                [job-media] => /Users/Shared/Episode Engine/Input/stitch_iPhone/VideoFile.avi
                [client-host] => localhost
                [client-name] => Watcher
                [job-setting] => iPhone_Widescreen_HQ.setting
                [job-kind] => split
                [job-folder] => stitch_iPhone
                [job-name] => [split 2/17] stitch_iPhone: iPhone_Widescreen_HQ.setting + VideoFile.avi
                [owner] => %watch
            )

        [___class___] => Episode::API::Job
    )

So my question is, how do I take this data and display it an a readable format? I can live without having the "History" array, just the "current status" array would be good.

I can have about 100 of these returned for different "jobs" so I'm guessing that a foreach loop would be best?

Any help appreciated!

This is the most basic way

foreach($jobs_array['currentStatus'] as $key => $value) {
    echo $key . '=>' . $value;
}

If you need something a bit more flexible, this potentially could allow you to access some of the other arrays in the main array

foreach($jobs_array as $key => $value) {
    if($key == 'currentStatus') {
        foreach($value as $k => $v) {
            echo $k . '=>' . $v;
        }
    }
}
