Per the example array at the very bottom, i want to be able to append the depth of each embedded array inside of the array. for example:
array (
53 =>
array (
'title' => 'Home',
'path' => '',
'type' => '118',
'pid' => 52,
'hasChildren' => 0,
),
Has a depth of one according to the sample array shown below so it should now look like this:
array (
53 =>
array (
'title' => 'Home',
'path' => '',
'type' => '118',
'pid' => 52,
'hasChildren' => 0,
'depth' => 1,
),
and so on...
All of the recursive array function attempts i have made are pretty embarrassing. However I have looked at RecursiveArrayIterator which has the getDepth function. I'm confused on how to append it to the current array... any help is VERY much appreciated, thank you.

I assume there is another array( at the top not included in your example code. Something like this?
function array_set_depth($array, $depth = -1)
{
$subdepth = $depth + 1;
if ($depth < 0) {
foreach ($array as $key => $subarray) {
$temp[$key] = array_set_depth(($subarray), $subdepth);
}
}
if ($array['hasChildren'] && isset($array['children'])) {
foreach ($array['children'] as $key => $subarray) {
$temp[$key] = array_set_depth($subarray, $subdepth);
}
$array['children'] = $temp;
}
$array['depth'] = $depth;
return $array;
}
Example usage, I set your array to the value $a:
$b = array_set_depth($a);
print_r($b);
Edit:
To set depth before the children for nice printing you can do this:
function array_set_depth($array, $depth = -1)
{
$subdepth = $depth + 1;
if ($depth < 0) {
foreach ($array as $key => $subarray) {
$temp[$key] = array_set_depth(($subarray), $subdepth);
}
return $temp;
}
$array['depth'] = $depth;
if ($array['hasChildren'] && isset($array['children'])) {
foreach ($array['children'] as $key => $subarray) {
$temp[$key] = array_set_depth($subarray, $subdepth);
}
unset($array['children']);
$array['children'] = $temp;
}
return $array;
}
A recursive function like this should do it?
function setDepth(&$a, $depth)
{
$a['depth']=$depth;
foreach($a as $key=>$value)
{
if (is_array($value))
setDepth($a[$key], $depth+1);
}
}
The thing to note is that the array is passed by reference, so that we can modify it. Note that we also use this reference in the recursive call to setDepth. Although I used foreach for convenience, the $value variable is a copy, and passing that to setDepth would only make short lived changes within the scope of the foreach loop.
