API Issue after

API
1

Hello,

I am running into some issues grabbing the $followers when I echo this in my index.php, it just doesnt respond. I have my clientID defined in my config.php same with $twitch_username

$channels = 'https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/channels/' . $twitch_username; $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt_array($ch, array( CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array( 'Client-ID: ' . $clientId ), CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true, CURLOPT_URL => $channels . $twitch_username )); $cexecute = curl_exec($ch); $twitch = json_decode($cexecute,true); $display_name = $twitch['display_name']; $game = $twitch['game']; $status = $twitch['status']; $url = $twitch['url']; $avatar = $twitch['logo']; $views = $twitch['views']; $followers = $twitch['followers']; curl_close($ch);

Any tips? or suggestions to get this fixed?

Add error checking and echo out potential errors. Currently, you’re assuming that curl_exec is returning with no error.

I have the following in my index.php

ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('display_startup_errors', 1);
error_reporting(E_ALL);

This produced errors with something not defined in my config.php, nothing related to TwitchAPI.After resolving that it produced an erro with my Twitch API, stating curl_close($ch); is not a valid response.

Those ini_set calls are for PHP configuration. I’m speaking to checking cURL object directly and taking action on that. Docs on the PHP site: http://php.net/manual/en/function.curl-error.php

No errors, cUIRL works no issue as I used it before this client id needed
