I know this sounds horrible but I am brand new to writing application code. I do not understand how / where to use the “Get/Post” code and where to use the “request example”. I was planning on using Java (I thought it would be the easiest). Can you point me in the right direction of how to get started. I just need a complete example of where to put each piece of code and I should be able to take it from there.
I can script I am just brand spanking new to creating this type of code.
What goes in the HTML, javascript file(script.js)(assuming this is needed), where should I put the include for unirest.io snippet etc.
I was looking at this as an example “https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2012/02/beginners-guide-jquery-based-json-api-clients/” but it doesn’t seem to carry over to your API usage.
Thank you very much for any help provided.

I’m currently on vacation and these are also more PHP related questions than really related to the API so I think you can get quicker more in-depth help in a PHP forum. If you don’t get ahead, I’ll be back in May, let me know 😉
json_decode gives an error and says it wants to use json_encode. After getting the result from json_encode I cannot figure out how to parse it (foreach)? json_encode seems to convert the data to a string and is not easily loopable.
response=Unirest\Request::get("url", array( “X-Mashape-Key” => “” ) );
echo "What type of var1: " . gettype(response);
That above line of code returns a type “string”.
Ideas?
…well there you go 😃 You need to get the “raw_body”, parse it as json (see PHP json_decode) and then you can grab the “answer” field from that
object(Unirest\Response)#1 (4) { [“code”]=> int(200) [“raw_body”]=> string(202) "{“answer”:“In 2 apples, there are 16.74 mg of Vitamin C. This amount covers 20% of your daily needs of Vitamin C.”,“image”:"https://spoonacular.com/cdn/ingredients_100x100/apple.jpg",“type”:“NUTRITION”}" [“body”]=> object(stdClass)#2 (3) { [“answer”]=> string(102) “In 2 apples, there are 16.74 mg of Vitamin C. This amount covers 20% of your daily needs of Vitamin C.” [“image”]=> string(57) “https://spoonacular.com/cdn/ingredients_100x100/apple.jpg” [“type”]=> string(9) “NUTRITION” } [“headers”]=> array(16) { [0]=> string(15) “HTTP/1.1 200 OK” [“Access-Control-Allow-Headers”]=> string(1) “" [“Access-Control-Allow-Methods”]=> string(39) “: GET, HEAD, POST, OPTIONS, DELETE, PUT” [“Access-Control-Allow-Origin”]=> string(1) "” [“Allow-Control-Allow-Methods”]=> string(39) “: GET, HEAD, POST, OPTIONS, DELETE, PUT” [“Allow-Control-Allow-Origin”]=> string(1) “*” [“Content-Encoding”]=> string(4) “gzip” [“Content-Type”]=> string(16) “application/json” [“Date”]=> string(29) “Sun, 10 Apr 2016 18:29:31 GMT” [“Server”]=> string(13) “Mashape/5.0.6” [“X-RateLimit-classifications-Limit”]=> string(2) “25” [“X-RateLimit-classifications-Remaining”]=> string(2) “-7” [“X-RateLimit-requests-Limit”]=> string(4) “1000” [“X-RateLimit-requests-Remaining”]=> string(3) “968” [“Content-Length”]=> string(3) “180” [“Connection”]=> string(10) “keep-alive” } }
please try var_dump($response) to see what you actually get back
I am getting the following error on the line "echo $response[“answer”];…
Fatal error: Cannot use object of type Unirest\Response as array
try var_dump($response) to see what you actually get back
<?php
require_once ‘/unirest-php/src/Unirest.php’;
$response = Unirest\Request::get(“https://spoonacular-recipe-food-nutrition-v1.p.mashape.com/recipes/quickAnswer?q=How+much+vitamin+c+is+in+2+apples%3F”, array( “X-Mashape-Key” => MY KEY" ) )
echo $response[“answer”];?>
I had the require_once in the header 1st then just tried to add it in the body and it still gives the same result.
So I finally got Unirest installed on server and tried your code above and it doesn’t seem to be working. It prints out “MY KEY” echo $response[“answer”];?>
Here is the code I am using:
<html>
<head>
<?php
require_once ‘`/unirest-php/src/Unirest.php’;
?>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$response = Unirest\Request::get(“https://spoonacular-recipe-food-nutrition-v1.p.mashape.com/recipes/quickAnswer?q=How+much+vitamin+c+is+in+2+apples%3F”, array( “X-Mashape-Key” => “MY KEY” ) )
echo $response[“answer”];?>
</body>
</html>
Hmmmm How do you post code blocks? Its removing all the html tags.
Of course, build on 😃
