In order to run a query, first you need a Zend_Service_Technorati
instance with a valid API key. Then choose one of the available query
methods, and call it providing required arguments.
Example 822. Sending your first query
<?php
// create a new Zend_Service_Technorati
// with a valid API_KEY
$technorati = new Zend_Service_Technorati('VALID_API_KEY');
// search Technorati for PHP keyword
$resultSet = $technorati->search('PHP');
Each query method accepts an array of optional parameters that can be used to refine your query.
Example 823. Refining your query
<?php
// create a new Zend_Service_Technorati
// with a valid API_KEY
$technorati = new Zend_Service_Technorati('VALID_API_KEY');
// filter your query including only results
// with some authority (Results from blogs with a handful of links)
$options = array('authority' => 'a4');
// search Technorati for PHP keyword
$resultSet = $technorati->search('PHP', $options);
A Zend_Service_Technorati instance is not a single-use object.
That is, you don't need to create a new instance for each query call; simply use your
current Zend_Service_Technorati object as long as you need it.
Example 824. Sending multiple queries with the same Zend_Service_Technorati instance
<?php
// create a new Zend_Service_Technorati
// with a valid API_KEY
$technorati = new Zend_Service_Technorati('VALID_API_KEY');
// search Technorati for PHP keyword
$search = $technorati->search('PHP');
// get top tags indexed by Technorati
$topTags = $technorati->topTags();
