How can I create a FaqPage with multiple questions?

[richard-313]

Hi there, thanks spatie for this awesome package!!

I have an array $faq with multiple questions and answers.
So I can loop this as follow:
foreach ($faqs as $key => $faq) { //$faq->question //$faq->answer }

So how can I create a Schema like the follow?

{ "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "FAQPage", "mainEntity": [ { "@type": "Question", "name": "What is the return policy?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "some text" } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Will I be charged sales tax for online orders?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text":"some other text..."} } ] }

I know I can use
Schema::fAQPage() ->mainEntity([ ... ]);
and Schema::question()
But how does it work together?

Thanks in advanced 👍

Hey, the easiest will be array_map() to go through your array and replace every entry with the corresponding schema type.

Schema::fAQPage()
    ->mainEntity(array_map(function($faq) {
        return Schema::question()
            ->name($faq->question)
            ->acceptedAnswer(
                Schema::answer()
                    ->text($faq->answer)
            )
    }, $faqs));

The code isn't tested but should work. 🙈

@Gummibeer thanks, it works!

Schema::fAQPage()
        ->mainEntity(
            array_map(function($faq) {
                return Schema::question()
                ->name($faq->question)
                ->acceptedAnswer(Schema::answer()
                ->text($faq->answer));
            }, iterator_to_array($faqs))
        );
