Twig - Looping through tweet text from twitter API - php

Question

I am using Abraham's TwitterOAuth library along with Twig to build a mini app where users authorize then search for tweets based on their input.
I can successfully dump the return from the API to my page, but when I try to isolate just the tweet text for each tweet returned I'm having no luck.
Here's the relevant code for my dashboard.php file:
$user = $connection->get("account/verify_credentials");
if(isset($_POST['query'])) {
$query = $_POST['query'];
$statuses = $connection->get("search/tweets", array("q" => "$query"));
echo $twig->render("dashboard.html", array("access_token" => $access_token, "user" => $user, "statuses" => $statuses));
} else {
echo $twig->render("dashboard.html", array("access_token" => $access_token, "user" => $user));
}
And then the problem code in my twig template:
{% if statuses %}
<ul>
{% for status in statuses %}
<li>{{ statuses.text|e }}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{{ dump(statuses) }}
{% endif %}
The {{ dump(statuses) }} works, but nothing is spit out inside the UL. I'm very new to all of this, so I've just been looking at Abraham's example code here, where he does this:
{% if user.status %}
{{ user.status.text }}
{% else %}
{{ user.description }}
{% endif %}
So I figured I could do the same thing, but it's not working for me. What am I missing?

Answer 1

Well I figured it out by comparing the example responses from the GET account/verify_credentials (the request being sent out in Abraham's user code) and the GET search/tweets.
If you compare the beginnings of the responses, you will notice that there is an extra level to traverse with the search/tweets response.
So instead of doing:
{% for status in statuses %}
<li>{{ statuses.text|e }}</li>
{% endfor %}
I did:
{% for status in statuses.statuses %}
<li>{{ statuses.text|e }}</li>
{% endfor %}
I realize the naming there isn't great, but to break it down for any other newbs like me: the first "statuses" is the variable I sent to twig, the second "statuses" is from the response I'm getting from the API.
In my original code there was nothing to loop through because I hadn't gone far enough down to reach the information about the individual tweets, I was basically trying to loop through the parent.
