oik_remote::bw_remote_geth() – wrapper to wp_remote_get for both HEAD and json body

Description

wrapper to wp_remote_get for both HEAD and json body

The resulting array contains the request returned from the call – so that we can look at information in the 'headers' – and the decoded JSON from the retrieved body, if set. Note: The default method, 'GET', can be overridden in the $args array. This allows us to use 'PUT' as well.

Usage

$array = oik_remote::bw_remote_geth( $url, $args );

Parameters

$url

( string ) required – the target URL for the GET

$args

( array ) optional – additional parameters to wp_remote_get

Returns

array consisting of the result of the request and the JSON result
