Multidimensional Associative Array Output

I am using PHP / Codeigniter and working with Google APIs Client Library for PHP, I am trying to output some data from a multidimensional array.

In my controller I have;

$client = new Google_Client();
$client->setApplicationName("Client_Library_Examples");
$client->setDeveloperKey("MyKey");
$service = new Google_Service_Books($client);

$data = array(
    'title' => 'Library Items',
    'gbook' => $service->volumes->listVolumes('0-7515-3831-0')
);

In my view I have;

  echo 'Page Title is: ' .$title; // this successfully prints 'Library Items'
  echo 'Book Title is: '; // need to output the book title here 
  echo 'Description is: '; // need to output the book description here

When I print_r($gbook) in my view I see the following https://pastebin.com/HM5hds6e

I'm not sure how to select specific values from this array (namely title and isbn). Any help or tips would be appreciated!

Thanks

Try accessing the volume data like this:

echo 'Page Title is: ' .$title; // this successfully prints 'Library Items'
echo 'Book Title is: ' .$gbook->getItems()[0]['volumeInfo']['title'];
echo 'Description is: ' .$gbook->getItems()[0]['volumeInfo']['description'];

You can try this code.

As I have checked in this url https://github.com/google/google-api-php-client you can directly loop that variable gbook

Loop the items array $gbook from the response and get the details of books

foreach ($gbook as $bookInfo) {
  echo "Book title : ".$bookInfo["volumeInfo"]["title"];
  $bookIdent = array_map(function($v){
    return $v["identifier"];
  }, $bookInfo["volumeInfo"]["industryIdentifiers"]);
  echo "Book ISBN : ".(implode(",", $bookIdent));
}
