Thanks for the reply.
The code I am using also uses var_dump, so I am wondering why it doesn't output in the same manner.
function mtgox_query($path, array $req = array()) {
// API settings
$key = '';
$secret = '';
// generate a nonce as microtime, with as-string handling to avoid problems with 32bits systems
$mt = explode(' ', microtime());
$req['nonce'] = $mt[1].substr($mt[0], 2, 6);
// generate the POST data string
$post_data = http_build_query($req, '', '&');
// generate the extra headers
$headers = array(
'Rest-Key: '.$key,
'Rest-Sign: '.base64_encode(hash_hmac('sha512', $post_data, base64_decode($secret), true)),
);
// our curl handle (initialize if required)
static $ch = null;
if (is_null($ch)) {
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, 'Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MtGox PHP client; '.php_uname('s').'; PHP/'.phpversion().')');
}
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'https://mtgox.com/api/'.$path);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $post_data);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
// run the query
$res = curl_exec($ch);
if ($res === false) throw new Exception('Could not get reply: '.curl_error($ch));
$dec = json_decode($res, true);
if (!$dec) throw new Exception('Invalid data received, please make sure connection is working and requested API exists');
return $dec;
}
// example 1: get infos about the account, plus the list of rights we have access to
var_dump(mtgox_query('0/info.php'));
// old api (get funds)
var_dump(mtgox_query('0/getFunds.php'));
// trade example
// var_dump(mtgox_query('0/buyBTC.php', array('amount' => 1, 'price' => 15)));
Ultimately, it doesn't matter what the var_dump looks like, I was just curious why it didn't show up as it does in all the examples I see.
Biggest issue is how do I access the data? If I want to grab the wallet balance from that JSON dump, how would I go about doing so? Once I know the syntax to working with the JSON data, I should be golden.
