Instagram API Endpoint in array

I have a basic php script that gets my last 30 instagram pictures. It just uses the media/recent endpoint url.. That works fine.

Looks like this

    $userid = "ID";
$accessToken = "ACCESSTOKEN";

// Gets data
function fetchData($url){
     $ch = curl_init();
     curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
     curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
     curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 20);
     $result = curl_exec($ch);
     curl_close($ch);
     return $result;
}

// Pulls and parses data.
$result = fetchData("https://api.instagram.com/v1/users/{$userid}/media/recent/?access_token={$accessToken}&count=30");
$result = json_decode($result);

And echo the output like this: 

<?= $post->images->standard_resolution->url ?>

But how can I put the endpoint url's in a array and be able to echo comments and likes in the same way..

I've tried using instaphp, but it's really slow and creates an access token for each visit..

If you have the full result set, you should be able to get things this way:

Likes:

<?= $post->likes->count ?>
<?= $post->likes->data->username ?>
<?= $post->likes->data->full_name ?>
<?= $post->likes->data->id ?>
<?= $post->likes->data->profile_picture ?>

Comments:

<?= $post->comments->count ?>
etc
