Get Runner Description

[BetEnvy]

Hi,

I am having some trouble trying to display runner description - a lot of the links I'm finding most be taking me to an out of date resource as the docs aren't loading.

I currently have the following code which brings back some basic information, but I am trying to retrieve the runner description via the following code. I'm struggling to find where to place any params.

Any help would be appreciated

use Betfair\BetfairFactory;
use Betfair\Model\MarketFilter;



require 'includes/vendor/autoload.php';




        $betfair = BetfairFactory::createBetfair('$api', '$user', '$pass');
        $market = $betfair->getBetfairMarketCatalogue();
        $marketDetail = $market->getMarketCatalogueFilteredByEventIds(array($id));
print_r($marketDetail);

It looks like you've got hold of some PHP example code. It's a long time since I did any PHP, but the procedure getMarketCatalogueFilteredByEventIds(array($id)) will likely return a number of market catalogue details. It's the code in that procedure which will be more illuminating to anyone who could help.

Looking in the documentation
http://docs.developer.betfair.com/do...lu3yomq5qye0ni
at the listMarketCatalogue call
http://docs.developer.betfair.com/do...arketCatalogue
the runner description data is only returned if you ask for it by
including RUNNER_DESCRIPTION in the marketProjection parameters
http://docs.developer.betfair.com/do...rketProjection
plus you might want RUNNER_METADATA as well.
