for a little scraper I have a array - with URLs

[dilbert2010]

Hi everyone,

for a little scraper I have a array (from a list with 'URLs ):

$pages_to_fetch = [uri1, uri2, ...];
which I would like to use with
$pages->find($pages_to_fetch)
Can I achieve this?
I have to tried to call “$pages->find()” looping through the array but then I can’t figure out how to merge the results into a regular “$page” object…

Well we also could do something like so:

$pages_to_fetch = ['uri1', 'uri2', ...]
$fetch_results = array();

foreach ($pages_to_fetch as $page_to_fetch) {
   $fetch_results[] = $pages->find($page_to_fetch);
}

foreach ($fetch_results as $fetched_page) {
   echo $fetched_page->title()
   ...
}

Hmm just for completeness, I can do also this - to narrow it down a bit, it looks like this:

$collection = $pages->find(['tags/shoes', 'tags/bananas']);

foreach($collection as $item) {
  echo $item->title();
}

It should works fine.

$collection = $pages->find(['tags/shoes', 'tags/bananas']);

foreach($collection as $item) {
  echo $item->title();
}

I might prefer something like this for enhanced readability/maintainability:

$tags = [   // use more descriptive variable name if you have one
  'tags/shoes',
  'tags/bananas',
  'tags/etc'
];
foreach($pages->find($tags) as $item) {
  echo $item->title();
}
