codeigniter restful api returning empty array

Question

I am trying to fetch items by id but instead its returning null array.The code works fine when I fetch all the items.

Here is the controller:

class Search extends REST_Controller
{

function __construct()
{
    // Construct the parent class
    parent::__construct();
    $this->load->model('Courses_model');
    $this->load->model('Courses_category_model');
    $this->load->model('Courses_lessons_model');
    $this->load->model('Courses_photos_model');
    $this->load->model('Providers_model');
}

function index_get()
{
    $category_id = $this->get('category_id');

        $result = $this->Courses_model->get_courses_category($category_id);
            $this->response([
            'status' => TRUE,
            'data' => $result
        ], REST_Controller::HTTP_OK);

}
}

and the model file is here and the model file is here:

 class Courses_model extends CI_Model
{
public function __construct()
{
    // Call the CI_Model constructor
    parent::__construct();
}

public function get_courses_category($category_id)
{
    $this->db->where('category_id', $category_id);
    $query = $this->db->get('courses');
    return $query->result();
}

any help on this will be appreciated – Vincent Kituyi Aug 16 '17 at 12:05 — Vincent Kituyi, Aug 16 '17 at 12:05

Thanks.but you see I have a specific problem at that particular function – Vincent Kituyi Aug 16 '17 at 12:35
my controller is also extended to the REST_Controller.php library. – Vincent Kituyi Aug 16 '17 at 12:37
it seems that $category_id = $this->get(); is not working – Vincent Kituyi Aug 16 '17 at 13:10
can somebody explain to me why this is not working please – Vincent Kituyi Aug 16 '17 at 13:11
when I hardcode the values for instance say 2, I can be able to get all the items with category_id 2 – Vincent Kituyi Aug 17 '17 at 05:04

hahaa. Finally, after a little snap I solved this. I just defined the routes and it worked like a charm.
