Pullng Data From a JSON File From Fortnite Tracker API - php

Question

I'm using the Fortnite Tracker API to get some data from my site, I have it working with by once connected it'll export my current data into a JSON file. This has worked fine for the mean time I have it working with a couple of the stats but for some reason I can't get it to work with recent matches, can someone see where I'm going wrong here?
PHP
<?php
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://api.fortnitetracker.com/v1/profile/psn/mygamertag");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, FALSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, FALSE);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, array(
'TRN-Api-Key: myapikey'
));
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
$fp = fopen("myStats.json", "w");
fwrite($fp, $response);
fclose($fp);
$data = json_decode(file_get_contents("myStats.json"));
$solo = $data->stats->p2;//solos data
$duos = $data->stats->p10;//duos data
$squads = $data->stats->p9;//squads data
$matches = $data->recentMatches;//match data
$sesh1 = $matches[0]->id->valueInt;
$solo_wins = $solo->top1->valueInt;
$duos_wins = $duos->top1->valueInt;
$squads_wins = $squads->top1->valueInt;
$solo_matches = $solo->matches->valueInt;
$duos_matches = $duos->matches->valueInt;
$squads_matches = $squads->matches->valueInt;
$solo_kd = $solo->kd->valueDec;
$duos_kd = $duos->kd->valueDec;
$squads_kd = $squads->kd->valueDec;
$solo_games = $solo->matches->valueInt;
$duos_games = $duos->matches->valueInt;
$squads_games = $squads->matches->valueInt;
$solo_kills = $solo->kills->valueInt;
$duos_kills = $duos->kills->valueInt;
$squads_kills = $squads->kills->valueInt;
$total_matches = ($solo_matches+$duos_matches+$squads_matches);
$total_wins = ($solo_wins+$duos_wins+$squads_wins);
$total_kills = ($solo_kills+$duos_kills+$squads_kills);
$total_kd = (round($total_kills/($total_matches-$total_wins),2));
echo 'Total Matches: '.$total_matches.'<br>';
echo 'Total Wins: '.$total_wins.'<br>';
echo 'Total Kills: '.$total_kills.'<br>';
echo 'Total KD: '.$total_kd.'<br>';
echo $sesh1;
?>

Answer 1

Being new to json, I had the same issue. To solve it I created a container for the recent matches.
$recent = $data->recentMatches;
This is an array of objects. So
echo $recent[1]->score;
would print '865', which is the score for the second match listed in your example.
Hope this helps.
