Cache data presented as String and not Array

[Krayt1x]

I apologies firstly as i am quite new to JSON

When i run the following line the first time with DECODE_ENABLED = TRUE;
$getGame = $testCache->getCurrentGame($summoner_id,OC1);
var_dump ($getGame);

It returns an array, but if i go and refresh the page it will return it as a string.

If i do the same thing again with DECODE_ENABLED = FALSE;
it returns a string both times.

Am i missing an option to decode from cache somewhere or am i making a silly mistake?

#42

I think might have solved this.

[Krayt1x]

I am able to read code, but quite poor at writing so if this is wrong can someone please correct me.

I modified line 64 in FileSystemCache.php from
return json_decode(file_get_contents($this->getPath($key)));
to
return json_decode(file_get_contents($this->getPath($key)),true);

and it "seems" to be working.

It actually looks like a mistake in the library itself

    //returns a summoner's id
    public function getSummonerId($name) {
            $name = strtolower($name);
            $summoner = $this->getSummonerByName($name);
            if (self::DECODE_ENABLED) {
                return $summoner[$name]['id'];
            }
            else {
                $summoner = json_decode($summoner, true);
                return $summoner[$name]['id'];
            }
    }   

the if and else should probably be reversed

    //returns a summoner's id
    public function getSummonerId($name) {
            $name = strtolower($name);
            $summoner = $this->getSummonerByName($name);
            if (!self::DECODE_ENABLED) {
                return $summoner[$name]['id'];
            }
            else {
                $summoner = json_decode($summoner, true);
                return $summoner[$name]['id'];
            }
    }   

Does that fix the issue instead of having to add your own true?

Just testing

[kevinohashi]

Let me know if that fixes it, I will patch the library :)

[Krayt1x]

That seems to be working, i will have to play around some more as the site is still being created an a lot of stuff doesn't currently work.

Getting the same issue on

$getSummonerName = $testCache->getSummoner($summoner_id);
var_dump ($getSummonerName);

I really need to sit down one of these days and go through a bunch of fixes, it hasn't been well thought out lately. I haven't had the time to do everything right.

It shouldn't need DECODE_ENABLED checks anywhere. It's done in request(). All those other ones should be redundant. But if it's not working right, I need to really take a deeper look.

[Krayt1x]

honestly, it could just be me..

[kevinohashi]

it could be, but I haven't had the time to maintain this library as well I should lately. I am looking through it and it's me quickly patching stuff and not really fully thinking about the design and structure. Even if it's just you, I need to sit down for a day and just clean the whole thing up.
