How to access object array in php

Question

I am trying to filter it using array_filter

$time = (time() -10);

$data = json_decode($json, TRUE);

$datafilter = array_filter($data, function($obj)
        {
        return $obj->response->trade_offers_received->time_created > $time;
        });

echo $datafilter;

I am getting this notice: Trying to get property of non-object. So am doing something wrong. How can i filter this array to get only object where time_created > $time ?

This is my JSON data

As I am not sure what you will get if you do the json_decode() without the TRUE parameter that converts objects into arrays, we will stick with the array notation.

Also if you are only interested in data that exists at the $data['response']['trade_offers_received'] level of this data structure, start your array_filter at that level.

But mainly as they are arrays, use the array notation and not the object notation and things will probably work

More Importantly: You will also need to amend the closure code to pass the $time variable into the closure.

$time = (time() -10);

$data = json_decode($json, TRUE);

$datafilter = array_filter($data['response']['trade_offers_received'],
                              function($arr) use($time)
                              {
                                  return $arr['time_created'] > $time;
                              }
                           );

print_r( $datafilter );
